    Imax power handling

    Thanks for all the replies. I should first mention that I am not long winded. So that may be in my favor. Furthermore, I can probably drop the output power going into the 4 pill down enough to loaf the 16 pill along at ~2500 watts. So perhaps that would be my best bet. It is interesting to hear...

    Imax power handling

    I purchased an Imax to put on my mast while I'm talking on the mountain top. My only concern is that the 16 pill in my mobile (3000-3500 watts) will be too much for it. Has anybody put this kind of wattage through an Imax? I know the antenna says a 5kw rating, but I just don't feel safe...

    POOR MANS SETUP

    Nice. A local here talked with an extension ladder rigged up with a set of 3's at the top for like 20 years... he'd probably still be talking but he passed away..

    WTT/WTS: Davemade 2 pill, Davemade 6 pill

    Two clean functional amps, 2 pill is new-ish, 6 pill is a bit older but in great shape. The 6 pill has been an indoor amp ran on a 150amp power supply with no abuse. Mostly looking to trade + cash for an 8 pill, 12 pill, or 16 pill Fatboy or Lipzipper... other brands will be considered, but the...

    armadillo amps?

    I'd like to add, that Armadillo usually rates their stuff @ 20v+.. I did have a 2x2879 Armadillo base amp, and that joker had a high/low switch. On high, I shit you not it did 19v-20v under load and would do like 300 bird watts driving it with a dual final radio. On low it would do like...

    Maco Laser 400's, new in the box

    The 12 Element Laser is designed to achieve the maximum gain and front to back ratio using a Quad Reflector and Yagi Parasitic elements. I would think these can probably be tuned for 10 meter as well with a little adjustment. These are $550-ish new. $425 + actual shipping. Also...

    Laser 400's, new in box

    I have a brand new set of Laser 400's, in the box, sealed that I purchased about 2 years ago. I got my tower up high enough to get over the trees, so I'm hoping to get 500's. Thanks, Josh

    Dx was off the Hook today

    damn, nice vids... I talked to you on 19 for a while, and I bet we plugged thousands of mud duck drivers ears out there, lol. Always wanted to do that. Sounding good out there, appreciate the gate. I need me one of those radio's with the clean audio like that one of these days.

    Maco M103C vs a Sirio 3 element beam ?..

    The maco has a slightly longer boom, and for that reason probably has the edge when it comes to performance. I've used both, and there isn't a huge difference. Having blown up the gamma in the sirio with less than 3k watts, I wouldn't trust that power rating number as well :) So I wouldn't let...

    4 element vs 5 element M104C or M105C help...

    I've used all 3 within the past few years and I'd recommend the 5. With over double the boom length, you will see ~3db gain between the 3 and the 5. You will feel a "seat of the pants" difference. The 3 to the 4 is a decent upgrade, but if I was going to go through the trouble of upgrading, I'd...
