How much will it affect my signal to hide a IMAX or gainmaster ina oak at about 60'? Tip of antenna will be about 5' over tree top.

I recieved my new antenna from DNJ radio yesterday and installed it in the rain with the 145 magnet mount. I am impressed so far! A lot less noise and the recieve is amazing! Where I normally had 5db+ of static I now had 1. I heard a guy who was at about 3db and made a contact with him only to...

I had a Ram 1500 with a Tram triple mag mount and Tram TBC-9 Antenna. I have since sold the truck and I’m leasing a 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport so NO holes through roof! I just ordered a 2970n2 and I would like to get a less obtrusive Antenna and I’m drawn to the Sirio Turbo 5000 magnetic...

well my 980 decided to let the factory smoke out so...I just ordered a 2970n2 from Bells CB. Hope to be back on the air soon and able to actually get out. Currently using an old realistic base that is am only.

planning my setup for my new home and I’m thinking about a sirio vector 4000 over a sirio s3 beam and using an antenna switch to go between the two. I can only put up 1 tower and I am limited to a maximum height of 75’. I want an Omni directional and a beam. Would this work ok? This would be fed...

I have been looking at buying a new/bigger amp but other than rm Italy and copper electronics where can I buy a new one from? I’m looking for somewhere around 500 Watts and must have SSB. I tried to look at Xforce but no amps come up? I liked the midnight special line but like I said it seems to...

I have been on here a while and have talked to a few of you over the years, I just wanted to say thank you to all of you for your help and understanding over the years it’s nice to have a group of other radio nuts to converse and get advice from. With work and the holiday season I don’t know how...

I am running a uniden 980ssb into a RM 203p and a Tram triple magnet mount with a Tram TBC-9 antenna with a SWR of 1.2 on both ends of the band and I also have the chassis of the radio and amp grounded to the seat mount bolts in my truck now here’s the new problem...I want to use a 102” whip but...

Ok. I took in an older amp on trade and can’t find any info on it. It is about 7 inches long 5inches wide and 3 inches long and one end has the typical so-239 connections and the other has 2 switches one labeled rcvr amp off- on and the other is power on- off. It also has 3 lights and says...

Its getting to be that time of year that I need inside things to do. I currently run a 980 ssb into a RM 203 amp but like everyone else I want more. I could buy an amp but I think it would be fun to build my own. I have plans on a dvd and I’m thinking of a 1x 4 and hoping for maybe 350-400 Watts...

A few weeks back my set up was stolen and today was the day to replace it. This is the new stuff..Uniden 980SSB into a RM Italy kl203p and decided to use a Tram triple magnet mount and I can hear the haters but....a Tram TBC-9 antenna. The radio is set at 1 1/2 watt deadkey swings to about 7...

Well it happened, my truck was broken into last night while parked at work on the night shift in a fenced lot with cameras! My truck was one of 7 cars hit. Mainly took stereo stuff from cars and change..took my 980ssb, Ts250 amp and predator 10k along with change and small stuff. We have them on...

I have a 2017 Ram 1500 quad cab and today I began the process of removing the headliner to install a puck mount, upon disassembly I found there is NO space between the headliner and roof! Even coax will show a crease in headliner. I am now thinking about a triple magnet mount for my predator 10k...

I have been into 11 meters for years and due to no dx and little local chatter I am thinking of getting my license but if I do what radio and band do I start with? I have had a few 10 - 12 meter radios in the past that where modified for 11 meters but I never heard anything outside of 11 meters...

I have a in used puck mount I bought and can't use. Looking to sell for $30. Don't want to ship as it's heavy. Located in Steger Illinois area but travel to Alsip Illinois and Scherreville Indiana regularly. I have 18' of unused rg8x coax that I would sell with it for $20.

Went to the radio shop tonight and on my way out I seen a full size van with a puck mounted predator antenna on the roof but...it had four 2' whips screwed into the outter puck ring as ground radials laying about 1" off roof..I tried to get a pic but being the location I didn't want to draw...

I just got my predator 10k with a 9" shaft. This will be mounted in a puck mount on the roof of a 2017 Ram 1500 quad cab, would the shaft length make a difference? I went with 9"to keep the weight at the bottom and less stress on mount.

O.K. I had a question thrown at me that I couldn't answer and it bothers me..Here goes...My Coworker is just getting into 11 meter and I helped him install a old 29 ltd and 102" whip on his truck. I ran a ground from radio case to chassis as I always do, He then asked why I did that when the...
