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

Has anyone here tried one of these before? It has a nice price, just not sure how it stacks up to the west mountains versions. After using the nr in the Anytones, this is a must for any radio without nr. https://www.radioddity.com/collections/deals/products/xiegu-gnr1

Gentlemen, it's a little toasty over this way. I barely made it home yesterday before the roads closed down due to the 60 to 70 mph gusts and fire. Nasty nasty around these parts. Lot's of evacuations, lost homes and people unaccounted for.

Hope everyone has had a great Christmas. After doing Christmas with family throughout the day I finally get to checking emails, notifications and such to find I've got an extra gift from amp builder Gatekeeper. Not really a gift but sort of, I entered a transistor giveaway and won so that's a...

The story starts back around 2010 just right before I sold everything off due to an unforseen life event. One afternoon I was passing by an old cb shop that had been closed a few years and I saw several vehicles parked there with all the doors opened up. It peaked my interest thinking it may be...

The end of through hole is near! While working on a Ranger 797 today this caught my eye. Not the first time I've seen this type of board but my first to see this transistor modded into this location and in a Ranger. (Pay no mind to the stray solder balls/blobs provided at no extra cost by them)...

If your amp section runs hot, just liquid cool it instead! Heck a creative that's for sure.

Same face with maybe some new innards and bigger amplifier for as the title says....... 800 bucks bone stock out of the box!!!! Wow! https://cbradiosupply.com/products/ranger-10-meter-radio-ranger-rci-69ffb6-10-meter-radio https://simonthewizard.com/2023/09/21/ranger-rci-69ffb6/

I'll put some pictures up tomorrow evening. For now I can say I bought it brand new and it's in like new condition. I used it in the shack for a little while but it's been in the box since we moved back in march. It will come in the original box. I gave about 275 but will take 175 plus the...

Just got this in an email this morning. It's starting to look like most Anytone offerings will be available from Radioddity which is good for support reasons. Now available for pre-order

After a couple of weeks doing some research and watching videos I ordered an hp dps-1200sb to modify for high amperage gear (kl-503, 2970N2). https://www.ebay.com/itm/295902447715?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&customid=link&campid=5336136228&toolid=20001&mkevt=1 Cheap, easy to modify...

So this is kind of a 2 part post here. I'm looking at a 2950dx in great condition but it's completely stock virgin and I'll only get the radio. So with just the radio then I get no e-chip so no way of channel expansion for 11 meters. Does anyone have an extra they can part with? Barkett has...

So I've got a 2970N2 opened up and have a couple questions for you gents that are familiar with this board. First 2 pictures is what I think is the limiter. One leg is up so I believe it is out of the circuit. Am I correct? Next up is the coils, surely that isn't factory is it? Now finally...

Well I'm getting impatient waiting on the q6 pro and am now looking at the Radioddity Qt40. Right now I can get one for 173 shipped so it's hard to pass it up. So my question is, has anyone ran an amplifier with this radio? If so, does it play well with an amp? I know some have had issues...

Found this from Matt at the radio garage. Not his invention but seems like a good idea and his testing videos show good results as well. I researched and found they are commonly used in drone power connectors. Pretty cool, could be a good upgrade and bolts right up to the common 3 pin plugs. I...

This is a subject talked about countless times here on wwdx. I couldn't figure out which thread to stick it to so thought I'd post this example here. Pretty wicked stuff. I once disconnected the coax coming from the antenna into the shack and got a little static shock. Not sure if it was from me...

Stumbled across those video and thought this is actual a cool looking little radio. One thing that really caught my eye was the mod led. Does anybody have info on that modification? I've seen it on the 98vhp and others before but never seen it on a 29.

With the solar cycle in full swing maybe we can share info in this thread. Solar flares, radio blackouts and propagation info could be helpful to us all who look forward to the DX This is interesting https://www.chron.com/news/space/article/sun-solar-maximum-18179009.php

It's a long shot but I'll try anyways. I've got a 2970N2 that I purchased here from a forum member. Nice radio but a little too much powa that I like to run out of a radio alone. I'm willing to trade for a clean unmolested 2950DX-CD (blue display). Reason for the smaller radio is I've got...

Ok my friends, So my temporarily station is going to be in a corner of the living room until the garage corner is sorted out and brainstorming is done. For some time now I've wondered about headphones but never really needed them. Well now I might. After spending all day in a computer lab doing...
