    Yay ... 1 more question. A radio site is selling a AT-6666 6 pin to Cobra 4 Pin adapter. Should this adapter work on the QT 80? Thanks

    Hi Greg, You are showing two different adapters. Can you confirm which one the QT80 matches to? The 6 Pin configuring looks the same but one is RCI Style and the other AT 6666. I'm guessing is the 6666 as the Tag on the QT80 shown references { 6666Pro)

    Besides looking completely different and the differing mic plugs.

    Thanks Greg, I thought afterwards that it might be a 6 pin rather than 8 and then wondering if it was a 6 pin RCI clone ..... and then an adapter. I have one of those in my stock.

    Hi Mo, Do you know if the 8 pin plug is an Icom clone etc ....? I'm thinking about getting one of these soon. Looked on ebay for an 8pin QT80 to 4 Pin cobra Mic Adapter but did not see. I could always just rewire the mic plug to use a D104 already on hand.

    11 meter modded radio Kenwood 440TS AT Help

    Consider simply using an echo mic instead of trying to install a board in the radio? - Not that I think it's going to help much. Those radios have Low AM Audio and not much you can do to punch it up. Made for Sideband.

    I searched with google but found nothing. QT60-PRO/AT-5555II PRO VS Stryker 955

    I don't know if this helps. Yeah the 955 is pricey. I'll take the newer QT80 over the 60. The 80 has a bit more power, improved features and the 8pin round solid mic plug vs. the 60's modular plug that I don't like at all.

    Do not buy or request warranty service on DJI Drones

    Yeah this seems a pretty low-priority law enforcement action. Let somebody come knock on your door. Tell them it was a drone. You flew it, crash it and tossed it in the trash weeks ago. They can go look for it in the landfill if they want.

    On The Bench - Colt-890 Euro model...what a cool radio!!!

    So this leads me to ask: What Year and some Brand/Models did the very first "Export" CB's with Factory Extra Channels appear? - I would not have thought it dipped into the late '70's but I'm not sure.

    What's your favorite multimeter?

    Have a Fluke 87 Series III. Boasts ultra high accuracy on DC Volts. Retailed for nearly $400 but found a good one used on eBay for $65. I never shy away from buying previously owned high quality items to save the $$$

    End-Fed Dipole UJM-EFHW-80-10

    Ahh Yiss ..... but keep it at an 80. Don't be tempted to double it to a 160 if you have the space ..... those 160's are so much wire they become lightning magnets !!

    End-Fed Dipole UJM-EFHW-80-10

    80M Loop has always been a favorite of mine but requires a tuner to go everywhere. Friend has an impressive antenna that's been around forever. Cut for 80M, is a Doublet fed with ladderline. 80~10 + low to no SWR across the band - no tuner needed. Needs to be up as high as possible.
