    Mitsubishi 2sc1969 expert advice

    I no longer own one but if I'm not mistaken, didn't the galaxy 77, 88, and 99v have a 2166 as a driver and 2 2312's as finals? It's been a while since looking in one of those.

    The good o'l days of USA

    This was pretty cool to watch and makes it feel like the best of our American days were in the past. Enjoy

    CB shops not for the weak.

    That's a good looking para dynamics meter you scored! It looks super clean considering it's from some time back.

    Mitsubishi 2sc1969 expert advice

    Since moving I've been going through boxes of stored gear, parts and junk to try and clear some stuff out. Some of this stuff hasn't been out since about 12/14 years ago and I forgot it even existed in the arsenal. I know for me and the fee rigs I have with bipolar transistors, is there still...

    11 meter is very quiet?

    On the way home I powered up the quad 6 and could very faintly hear an operator calling cq from west indies and the guy that gets on and whistles (not sure if you folks have heard the whistle guy). Aside from that, nothing...

    Ranger RCI X9

    Not necessarily, I'm a truck driver and own both anytone and ranger radios. I've got a couple Rangers that do really well on ssb. 2950dx6, 2970n2 and even the little tre-797 do really well in ssb I know because I own and use them ssb. The X9 for ssb, not so much.

    11 meter is very quiet?

    It's so dead here that rf gain all the way up doesn't even show the noise floor.... Very unusual for this radio but I know it's working because I've had local conversations. Crazy dead

    Ranger RCI X9

    Unfortunately as @Enterprise312ok stated, it's ssb capable but also ssb limited as I found out myself. Mine is in the box brand spanking new and although it's a Purdy one, it'll get sent down the road one day. It sure is one heck of an audio monster on Am though!

    FREQUENCY AND TIME FOR CONTACTS

    Good morning and all you fine people of wwdx have a great day of DX. For 828 there's no radio time today so you folks will have to pick up my slack lol. My youngest daughters have a valet recital and dad couldn't miss that for the world even though I don't understand much of it. Daughters...

    Tornado bit the dust

    30mph is nothing where I live, that antenna wouldn't make it long here either. Surprisingly the one I thought wouldn't survive has and it's a sigma 5/8 silver rod. I wouldn't believe it if I didn't own it. I've lost maco v58, workman 58, tram 1498 and others in panhandle winds. Like mentioned...

    11 meter is very quiet?

    Hey that 3 hour nap is enough to celebrate alone! I wish I could make enough time in a day just to sit down and relax for more than a couple minutes. Dx on the commute home was extremely noisy, but still managed to make several east coast contacts. Delaware, North Carolina, Pennsylvania just...

    New Anytone 6666+

    Where's this new q6 pro? It's taking a long time! Any developments on this one? Has anyone heard anything?

    11 meter is very quiet?

    Conditions have not been the greatest here this week. A few contacts a day but it's been rough. It might be that time of the year where it starts dropping out on us I'm afraid. In the meantime I'm going to try the @Brother DXer 1700-1900 cst time slot and see how that works.

    WM-1 meter

    I will when I'm back to it again. In the meantime though, this picture here shows how the wires are through the meter housing. What they did was drill two small holes and ran the wires through it and tinned the ends as seen below where the LED's are attached. The wiring behind the scenes I will...
