I always heard Gooserider made some great amps for AM. Not sure if he's still in business or not. Mike's shop in Mansfield carried them, and they were labeled Twister or Texas Twister IIRC. 73, Brett

I have ran the RSP-1 with an Android program, and it works pretty well. You need a windows based program to really get the best out of one. Many more features with Sdr Console, HDSDR, etc. 73, Brett

Pretty sure that's a gussied up 2000GTL in the picture. There was someone making stick on panels or decals and selling them on Ebay as best as I recall. Might have been Deb's decals? I think Klondike Mike did a video on one that he did. 73, Brett

Ya just can't count on those 9 year olds from Bangladesh anymore! 73, Brett

My Comet mount took a dump while traveling down I35 the other day. Antenna hung on by the coax. I thought it was ok, but when I replaced the mount, it seems the coax is not attached in the connector. Will have to either try to fix it or buy another short length of coax. :( Sorry the Windows...

Love those Kenwoods! I have a TS-520 and TS-830S. You have some beauties! 73, Brett

I kind of like the rules as they are now. I know there are still Novices and Tech's that have been the same license class their whole life, but I think the current privileges give a Tech enough of a taste of HF to be an incentive to upgrade. Adding more base level privileges just discourages...

You oughta know, Buddy! ;) 73, Brett

Too busy talking about jerk chicken! lol Thanks for upgrading Moleculo. :) 73, Brett

They named that hut after me. 73, Brett

Don't talk on both rigs at the same time. ;) 73, Brett

Got that line from John Pinette... always cracked me up with this bit! 73, Brett

Time to bust out the Speedo and flip-flops. :eek: Have fun! 73, Brett

5024Yeah, the Yaesu ATAS 120A went a floppin' while I was traveling at 70 mph today on the freeway. Hey! What was that thump!?! No fun. At least the antenna and coax held until I could pull over. I am stuck with this type of mount due to this being a work car that is on a fleet/lease...

I put an HC-5 in the stock President hand mic housing, and it didn't have enough gain to modulate the radio well. It sounded fine, but didn't have enough oomph to get full output from the rig. Might work better with an amplified mic housing, but I ended up just going with a stock mobile D104...

Yes, and another reason I am not an accountant. :ROFLMAO: 73, Brett

Ah, I remember the time I ran my FT-101E into a neat little low drive two pill base amp when I changed my rig via a switch by mistake. Hey! What's that smell!?! 73, Brett

There is a program for Android called Pocket RXTX that you can connect to the Yaesu rigs, either via USB or bluetooth. I am playing with the updated version for the 819, which still has some details to work out. I am sure Dan will update the program for the new FT-818 as well. You can use it...

Part of the perceived problem with the FT- 891. The bigger the display, the more juice it draws. Not so great for portable, but I love mine for mobile. 73, Brett

Yeah, but you can carry a Baofeng for that. 73, Brett
