    What year and why did you get into the Radio Hobby?

    1974 My cousin had a Chrome 23 ch Courier 23+ and a Mighty Mag base antenna. We had a blast with that radio.

    Mobile Ham operations banned?

    My employer pulled that nonsense some years back. No more two way radios in company vehicles. I was hauling liquid oxygen daily and had to stop at all railroad crossings. On one daily road in particular, the CB was an important tool to let the other trucks know what was about to happen in front...

    Quad 6 or RCI 2970?

    That's debatable. The 5555N2 receive is quite good. Seems to be stable enough. Been operating on 10m flawlessly for 2yrs and getting great reports. Best $259 I've ever spent on an all mode rig since the HR-2600. Ford F-150s are notorious for being transceiver unfriendly, yet the 5555N2 has great...

    when did yaesu stop 3 year

    Greg if you ever get to try a Heil headset and utilize the VOX circuit on SSB you may like it. I did 35 years ago and never looked back. I don't know which rig you are using, but if it has a monitor circuit that is icing on the cake. I have no plans to ever own a desk mic.

    What are your thoughts on the VHQ Hexbeam

    The VHQ being $1700 would be my last choice. Can't justify that price after the performance of this NA4RR antenna that cost way less.
