    TK 880 v2 help

    Well all I finally got the radios got them to talk to the PC wiped them but they won't transmit just beeeeeping when I try. I'm assuming it's something I did as I think I test transmitted one before wiping and it did TX. Best would be if someone had a codeplug for GMRS but if not that maybe...

    RETEVIS RA-25

    Unlike my experience with the ebay Retevis purchase, I have to say I bought two of the RA25 mobile units on Amazon and am well pleased with ease of use, programming and indeed power output. I may have got a hot one or it's the result of my p/s running at 15v I should probably back it down a bit...

    GMRS antenna question

    Gents a question. If I was to mount this on the boom of my VQUAD beam.... Would the antenna survive? I mean I understand one would not have the GMRS radio on while dumping 1KW 10m radio waves through the beam but in that scenario would the little GMRS antenna be unhurt when I was to use it...

    Maco VQUAD vs Siro 27-4

    Ok antenna gurus. As my VQUAD was made a mess by the tornado (have to pull it down again and put some more screws in I think the Gama matcher is losing intermittent connection to antenna probably in the slider area as it took a beating) and since insurance paid for a new one its only right and...

    Ameritron AL80A Has arrived and shes a beast.

    Of course that is SSB not AM and the FT-710 only has 25 watts on AM vs 100 on SSB and that is PEP but that fat old tube is beastly. People instantly come back and compliment the audio quality and punch. Guess this may be a good mashup after all of old and new tech! The sticker is for the benefit...
