The stock mic is giving me problems so I was going to replace it with a N/C type. I read about the 2018 mic specific to the 257's but those seems to be hens teeth...
Recommendations?
Thanks
I have a 77 & 99 both older EPT3600 board radios that I would like to send somewhere to get brought back to proper working order. The 77 is mine which audio is very weak and modulation almost non-exsistent. The 99 was in another truck of mine and that driver, while he won't admit it, has had...
I'm kind of fed up looking for decent techs to ship my radios too. The more I educate myself the more I realize that all I seem to find here locally are of the 'golden screwdriver types'.
So , I choose the path of doing it myself. If it is going to be messed up I'll have no one to blame but...
I just acquired on of these with the memory box and what looks to be an MFJ pre-amp/tuner. Really starting to wrap my head around what a piece of equipment I have here.
Said it hasn't been used for over 10 years, I bring it home, hook it up to my IMAX just to see if it still works. :tt1...
I've been toying with the idea of going ahead and getting my ticket but, I just cannot afford to get the radio I want right now. So I want to go head and get a tuner that I could possibly use down the line. I also want to start to toy with building my own dipole to use in conjunction with my...
Are these displays replaceable? I got one of the blue face ones and one of the numbers is starting to crap out. Also would it be possible to put either a red or green one in? The blue drives me crazy.
I installed a VHF in my boat when we got it really for emergencies. (Had an experience offshore a long time ago and the VHF probably saved our lives.) Every time we go out I turn it on 16 just incase.
We were doing a poker run a couple weeks ago and was talking to another boat on ch72 but...
I have read all the threads and am pretty confident I can do the parts swap. What I don't have the equipment for is the alignment after the fact. So, my question being has anybody sent a similar radio to a shop to have the swap/alignment done and would they recommend them?
Thanks!
Recently, even with the delay on it is having a hard time staying keyed during SSB xmitting. It wont chatter but it will unkey if I wait too long between words. Any ideas?
Thanks!
I mainly use this one on SSB but last night Cali was rolling in on AM. Soooo turned the delay off and tried to talk and wasn't getting any swing. Actually, as the radio would modulate the amperage draw would decrease. Any ideas?
Does anybody do the DX contests anymore? I don't get on like I used too but am on right now talking to Texas loud and clear and Arizona is in the weeds. Maybe I need to come out here and warm this thing up more often.
Found this unit upstairs looking for something else. Hooked it up and it powers up buy no TX or RX. Thought somebody might want it for nostalgia purposes or parts. Make offer.
