    El Gamo

    Well it took a while to post my pic. This was my weapon to clear my squirrel problem. I was wrong, they just kept coming and F##@$ing up every flower and lawn I had on a 1 acre yard. Caddy Shack nightmare! I sold the home and the squirrels came with the house. Deadly accurate at 100 feet.

    Pipe Line Down?

    Now I've been hearing nothing but eliminating fossil fuel. Electric is the only alternative. Some of us want to pump the brakes a bit. The large push back on " The new green deal" may have pissed off some of the over lords. Who really is the culprit in this shut down . Russia? or maybe closer to...

    Hello Matt, I hope you are well. I got a problem I hope you can help me with. Both of my D-104 mics took a shit. I hope its not due to the extreme Arizona heat in my somewhat insulated garage. My mics will not show any modulation when I key up. I checked the batteries and used another radio to...

Hmm is that normal or is that a ton. 25 percent power loss. I am just on 11 meters, and did check the forum...

    11 meter silence

    Is there ever a time when 11 meter refuses to have ANY activity? If so I apologize for my previous post on Low SWR. It may just be dead air. When I yell on CH 19, I get a pissed off response, It's at least an acknowledgement I'm working. I do say I'm sorry. The hard driving trucker's don't...

    SWR Too low

    I just ran 130 FT. of Tram RG8X to my GM antenna. When I checked my SWR it barely moved the needle. It was low with a hundred feet of crap cable. ( 1.7 on ch 40) Now i'm concerned if this coax I just bought is junk. And this is dangerous to my XMIT on my radio. I will learn some day with...
