Howdy folks! Just another extremely strange anomaly from me and my equipment. My setup is like this. Stryker 955 to DX-500, to meter to antenna. All is seemingly good. BUT, I just noticed that when I disconnect the coax from the radio, my meter light goes out. Yes, I have a 12v source (same...

I think I pushed her just a bit too hard. Not sure, but she let out the magic smoke. Took out a couple of resistors and what I think may be chokes. (I'm not a tech) Anyhow, I need this repaired in a timely manner if someone can do it. Pics are below.

Anyone ever try using small heat sinks with adhesive pads on top of 2879s? Was thinking of trying this on my DX-500. The adhesive pads would hold them on and a slow turning internal fan with exhaust holes in the lid should move enough air with virtually no noise.

I just purchased a new lid for my DX-500 and it's gorgeous. This guy makes them at home from aluminum for $15.00 plus freight. Here is his info for those who need it: Staci and Frankie Beard https://www.facebook.com/staciand.beard

Just letting everyone know that if you have purchased from CB World (https://www.wearecb.com/) your credit card info may have been compromised. I just received a charge for $102.00 on my card from Recharge.com and the card number was exclusive to CB World. My advice would be to cancel your...

Anyone else suffering the effects of the Canadian fires? Up here, in Escanaba, we've had thick haze and gray days for nearly a month. Our light levels during the day are similar to a solar eclipse. If we get a south wind, it sometimes help clean up the air, but otherwise, we're under a steady...

Any admins out here? I know a guy who registered about 4 days ago and was never notified of his registration acceptance. His name is Eric *****. Can anyone help him?

Dave's Radio is going out of business and has some decent liquidation prices on some things. https://www.davesradiooutlet.org/

OMG! I was just net surfing radio stuff and ran across and wet 1kw dummy load selling for $128.00. I laughed out loud, thinking this was one of those Ebay-type sales. So, I poked around looking at others and could not believe what I was seeing! Cheapest I found was about $85.00 and they went up...

Well, as I posted earlier, my 955 V2 had to go back in for warranty because of power loss. I must say that so far, I am extremely impressed with the service. The radio showed up in Florida at Wakulla Electronics, and about an hour later Gregg called me to speak to me about it. We had a great...

Well, my hot 955 v2 is going in for surgery. Was talking as usual and working fine until it wasn't. Power dropped out, very low. About 35 pep full bore and about 10 W AM carrier. I know it wasn't my fault, as even tho it has the huge finals, I never run the AM more than a 10W carrier and never...

Paint condition is unimportant but must be straight with no dents or dimples. Let me know what you have, if you have something for sale.

Does anyone know where to buy 4 or 6 conductor microphone cable by the foot? I've searched for days on the interwebs, can not find what I need. I can find cable, but all the wires are shielded with one shield instead of just the audio wire. I'd like to get about 10 feet or so. Maybe it's okay to...

Does anyone know of a good online supplier who has these?? I can only find them on Ebay and Kens Electronics. I don't have an Ebay account after they screwed me, and I can't seem to get a response from Kens. This is a standard piece that everyone uses, yet, nobody sells!! I want to make a couple...

A question has been bobbing around in my head ever since I received my V2. As most know, there is a setting in the menu so that you can choose between Dynamic and Electret mics. My question is; Does anyone know what changes are made in the radio between the two settings?

As most here know, I sent my M-1 in for repair quite some time ago, and it came back working, but with something else broken. So, I send it back in because there are no stops on the gain control. Obviously, something THEY broke while installing a new board. I get a call today informing me of the...

I am going to attempt a recap of my SSK mic because after sitting for quite some time, it now sounds bassy and muffled. Not that I use it, but my OCD won't allow me to let it sit knowing it's not right. Here is thye issue: I'm finding conflicting info on the web when it comes to cap values. I'm...

I'm kinda in the market for a near mint or mint Plus three mic. I would need it to be perfectly functional with no dead spots or scratchiness in the pot. This is not a priority purchase or anything. I am just tossing around the idea of parting with my Yaesu M-1. If anyone has a sweet Plus 3...
