I think for mobile operations the Grant would have an edge on the 257. I have had 1 257 and 1 of its clones and both radios had very noisy receivers in the mobile. I had to run the RF gain between 60 and 75% to knock back the noise levels. I did at one time have and old 3 button President Grant...

Garth, I am available all week this week. I'm still of on medical leave. Maybe we should try a not so popular freq <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"> , or another band. C'mon all the rest of you Ham's on here lets get together and have some fun...

21.338 is clear and quiet for the moment in CO. I will be calling and listening for you on that one. 348 and 345 are very busy. fasteddy </p>

Doc, 20 might be a little rough from CO to OK, but it would be worth a try for sure. I know what you mean about warmer weather and antenna work. When you can get more antennas up we will have to try 40, I'll bet that would work great. I don't have any SSTV equip Doc or I would give that a whirl...

I would like to get together with all of the Hams on the forum. If anyone is interested we could make a sched for this weekend. Depending on your location and distance from Southern Colorado we could decide on a band that would work best. I have all band capability with the Cushcraft AP8...

Thanks Paul, that means a lot. I am longer working the 11 meter band. Seems some knothead from Florida is trying to cause me problems with the FCC for freebanding. I guess they are jealous, but for why I don't know. The General class license is an equal oppurtunity license, all you have to do is...

Joe, it sounds to me like you have an older non DX version. If that is true I have a Thomas Publishing CB tune up manual and this is what it shows. S601 unconverted the pins chould be jumpered like this. :l , to convert the radio you need to move the shorting jumper over to the left and it...

Ron, It sounds like a dead meter. I have several meters here and you would be welcome to have one. I would just need to know what size and so forth. The light is probavly just burned out and I could send you one of those as well. Let me know and we can go from there. fasteddy </p>
