    uniden 980 discontinued

    I don't think so, the factory is who hollered me they had more. From what I've seen on youtube* they may have made some internal changes but I think it still beeps. That McKinley looks pretty cool but I'm no authority at all, just a mudduck. *

    uniden 980 discontinued

    I must confess that Uniden contacted me a week or two back, sorry this wasn't forwarded to the forum. I actually bought one from Amazonia back last summer, the protective cover was missing and it had a couple scratches on face plate so back it went. Mike repaired my TRC-485 so I'll prolly stick...

    Weak solar cycles = another big decline of the 11 meter local & DX population

    I'm new to dxing but it's rewarding to me every time a contact is made, that being said there is this guy on 15 who bleeds or whatever on all 40 and just makes it really hard to enjoy the hobby.

    It's a shame people can't leave well enough alone, our Texas based photog forum got knocked out by an attack and by the time it was restored it never recovered. I would understand if the guy didn't want to bother anymore, seems it's a lot of work to run a forum and we are very blessed to have...
