    Sirio mobile antennas, which is which

    I agree. But with the part # maybe someone on Ebay or in the USA may carry the part. Surprisingly, NewEgg carries some Sirio parts. Or take the dimensions and see if you can find another whip that is close enough.

    4 x HG 2879 advice

    Correct. The 2879C is totally different. It is NOT a drop in replacement. It has very different input and output impedances. Can't over volt and is rated at 150w out. If any major amp builder would re-engineer their 2SC-2879 amps to use the HG 2879C with an AB bias (passive like Texas Star...

    4 x HG 2879 advice

    Only true at levels of S3 and above. Absolutely not true below... Looks good on paper, but not in reality. And if your friend is giving you S5, then he doesn't need to increase his output. But, If your friend is giving you S0~S1, then even doubling his output (+3dB) will increase his signal...

    Imax 2000 Ground Plane Kit Worth it?

    If this is a "newer" Imax 2000, then it is made for 10 meters and won't tune properly for 11 meters with out the "optimizer" or a 12" extension. https://www.ebay.com/itm/395286141066?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5336136228&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1

    WTB: CPI CP2000

    He has a white one that has the extra channels in it and a CPI desk mic. You can tell by the "67" in the channel display.

    Mic Wiring Question

    Don't go by colors. Mic cord could have been changed. What ever wire the bare copper shield is wrapped around should be the audio wire. Connect it to the Ring of the phono plug. Using a continuity tester, connect the shield and the other wires. Do any of them have continuity with the mic...

    Best Small amp selection for SSB

    mrf454 uses a 211-11 case (larger) mrf455 uses a 211-07 case (smaller) The transistors in the amp are the larger case style.

    Wawasee JB150 issues "low bias"

    These should help. Looks like the Blue wire is your HV. Sounds like your Power supply matches Power Supply 1.

    Best Small amp selection for SSB

    On my Magnum 6000, there are 2 pink 2 pin jumpers (near the main relay). One is a "low" drive and the other is a "high" drive (3dB). That gives you 4 different drive levels that can be set internally with the 2 jumpers. Active class A bias, 5 pole Chebyshev output filter, keying jack, cooling...

    P O W E R - What are you actually getting from your shiny box?

    Its based on a false pretense. For a receive signal greater than 3 S units, I would say it is relatively accurate. For receive signals below 3 S units, it is not. If the AGC circuit hasn't kicked in (audio only signal), then: 1. 3dB increase is audibly noticeable, not 5dB. 2. A 3dB increase...

    anytone ares 2

    Unfortunately, the firmware was for the earlier ARES II. You will see that the file dates and the comments are all from 3/2023 to 4/2023. This firmware update was for ARES II that were made before 3/2023. If you just purchased one from Moonraker, it is a new one and the firmware update...

    Delta Electronics DSP60M for $189 yes or no

    https://www.worldwidedx.com/threads/anybody-use-switching-power-supplies.259884/post-743478 I think Eldorado828 is right. If you are going to try this, instead of using 22k it will need to be ~15K resistor to increase the voltage up that High. With a 22k I can get it up to 14v.

    anytone ares 2

    Not the firmware (I don't think it is publicly available). But it is the setup software that allows you to copy or re-write your radio's current settings using a programing cable.

    Another cheap option, especially if you are comfortable soldering. Get one of these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/162116182904?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5336136228&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1 And just swap them out with the 4 Toshibas. They are the closest thing to a drop...
