how old is the battery? you alternator? bad connections? if the alternator cant charge the battery it will die.. maybe somethng else draining the battery when the vehicle is off? a 200w palomar is not going to kil your battery unless the vehicle is off.. we need more info..

if you plan on running an amp, you are better off leaving the stock final.. i have a few radios i tested with the mosfet mod and the overall average power was very low. showed nice peak watts, but didnt drive the amp hard at all.

you know why you were banned and will be banned for life.. quit playing the victim..

um.. you sure LOL.. hope the person who submits that to the irs doesnt get audited.. first eff with the FCC, then the IRS? shackles.. oh my!

seriously, i heard what it sounds like clipped on an old mic and a new one.. results are the same.. it sounds pretty bad.. some people have a strange idea of what sounds good.. get a station to record you with your mic, you wont like it :(

gee.. its like hours away now.. HELLO!! its in EGG HARBOR.. i dont have the flyer handy.. sorry.. 4H club on blackhorse turnpike i think..

yup.. i agree.. the rd is a POS..

so far i cut the stock resistor at the top and left some to solder on to. spread it out and put a 470k across it. the mic sounds real good, it does have a tad more lower frequencies to it.. not very noticible to my ear.. my buddy replaced his completely with a 1meg resistor.. he likes it...

never thought about the being lonely thing.. hmm.. im on the lookout for him.. when i catch him, i will ask more about the problem.. i would like to fix this.. kind of sucks.. my truck is 10-7 and i cant even listen on the base.. if it turns out he has an old TV then i will buy him a new...

he wont complain because since that day i have left the antenna disconnected. the unit has been off and will remain off until i can figure out what is going on. my downstairs neighbor is very nice.. very quiet.. the guy has lived here for 8 years.. we are right next to the highway.. so im...

i wasnt transmitting when he complained.. the volume was down and just idle.. he was first hearing me, then hearing my recieve! i was 10-7 for a while.. it was like my antenna was picking up things and somehow it was getting into his shit.. the fcc is not going to come here to trouble shoot...

some of the stations are close, but i dont think that is it.. he has never complained before until i hooked up this base.. the way he described it and the fact i stopped transmitting for a while it seems that when the base is connected to the antenna and i have the radio on thats when he...

texas ranger 696f base hooked to a low pass filter with a 3ft jumper.. connected to a low pass filter.. using a quick disconnect to a 12 ft jumper to a A99 on my balcony.. the antenna is NOT grounded.. i have a very nice old man that lives downstairs.. yesterday i was home talking on the...

bought the connectors from kollman radio.. they got here so fast my head was spinning! got 1 for my bench and the other for my base (which i still have yet to modify/test/repair) its an no go on zipping a hole.. looking at drilling through 6"! on both sides of the door is about 2" wide of...

i want a fixed resistor, so far im up to 770k..

no i hear what you are saying.. but the mics we are using now, the RK56 and 636L have no frequency response! we use cobra/uniden cb's they all sound great, but they are missing that big export sound! im still going to play around with a fixed resistor for mine.. i really dont like drilling...

has anyone "stabbed" the points on the back of the board to see what value they come up with after they get the mic set right? oh.. hard way = fixed resistor..

im screwing with one now.. would rather have a fixed resistor than a adjustable pot.. anyone try it the hard way yet?

thanks for the help and ideas guys :) i have a sliding glass door leading to my balcony.. so the window kit wont work for what i need.. i am going to ask the super if i can make a hole or modify the door in a way to allow the coax to run inside (doubt he is going to let me do this) i plan...

AVG is usually when people refer to the reading on a BIRD or similar meter. (AVERAGE = AVG) people claim the only way to measure AM output is true PEP (peak envelope power). a BIRD 43 meter will read average power.. it was designed to read CW (constant wave aka carrier aka deadkey) you can...
