Retevis is giving away THREE radios for their 16th Anniversary! Click Here to enter!
is a kenwood ts-440s a good starting radio i found one that i might be able to buy for around $200 or $225
i have my 101e but the drift is getting to me after a while even though it was just service
i'm looking for help or guidance to understand better how to figure out the actual input frequency. example
on digital radio 27.3850 but on crystal radio ft-101e it's 27.3830
on 40 meters digital 7.27200 on ft-101e 7.2686 give and take a digit
so I've been hanging out on LSB 27.38 and have made contact a few times with just the ft-101e i notice it is a totally different way of talking there compare to AM i have caught myself a few times talking as if i was on am LOL now to learn CQ,CQ,CQ
i have this Astatic 575 m6 mic with the newer board i notice the push-to-talk button is sort of scratchie when squeeze the audio quality is very clean and clear from the on-air reports. the housing is nothing to write home about the front grill has a brownish look to it like the black paint is...
i haven't figured out about what it means about the years

it doesn't come with the power adapter but i see that the center is negative and the outer is positive i found an adapter 12v at 1amp have to reverse the wires
so i just pick up this meter. went to the eham.net website it seems this is a very close to the accuracy meter as the $500.00 one's anyone here ever owns one
can tell me about the plus and minuses of it if any will look good on top of my ft-101-e
ok so i took the mic element from this stock mic and wire a 3.5mm to the plus and minus where the element, was so i can use it with a cellphone when tuning a radio the question is do i need to add a cap or resistor parallel to the plus and minus for a cleaner audio output
