    6LQ6 conversion to EL 509 or 519

    Thanks guys. I really appreciate this help. I have found a few 6LQ6's on ebay for a reasonable price and I might just get those for now and do the conversion later. I had a KLV350 once and it would put out a little over 300 watts. Isn't that a little more than 2 6LQ6's would do or are they about...

    Where would Ham radio be without CB?

Many many Hams get there start in CB, maybe move into freebanding, then decide to get the ticket. I've done a lot of reading on QRZ and it makes me sick to hear some of the things...

    Mic cord to mic wiring?

    I need to know the wiring code on a Magnum 257 microphone to the mic cord. Not the mic plug wiring, just the wiring code to hook the stock mic back to the stock cord. If you've got a 257 and wouldn't mind taking the mic apart to tell me how to wire it back up it would be greatly appreciated...

    Titan rspy485 with low power, bad final?

    Matt, Yes the final in the radio could be bad. Every thing else is OK just low power? It still modulates and sounds the same? Then it probably is the final. A 2SC1969 is a replacemant. If you need one let me know as I have a bunch. 73's Ed fasteddy </p>

    Will a Yaesu FT-1000MP work on 11 meters

Your friends Kenwood would do much better if the AM filter was installed, that would help a whole bunch. How to help a FT 1000 I am not sure.You can experiment with...
