I ran across my original CDX certificate that Charger mailed to me dated 2/26/02. I know that there are a few older, and some numbers and handles have changed. Lets hear from the oldtimers.

This new ham needs suggestions for a 6 meter antenna. Homebrew or commercial. I built an G5RV, which works great on HF, and have a Moonraker 4 and an I-10K for 10/11 Meter. Need some help for 6 Meter DX.

Ok, I did it. I am going to miss the old freeband, but I passed (aced) the Tech test last night. Repented, and converted. CW and General scheduled in 2 weeks. Lots of CB stuff for sale in the near future. The 857 (thanks for correcting me) is ordered, and the VX 170 came in today. Am I going...

Got my new I 10 K Antenna. Tuning it @ 10' off the ground, leaning on my son's swingset. CDX 787 comes booming in from Virginia to Texas! The radio check was 5x7. Tuned great. Now if I can just get it back on the tower. Thanks 787

I have recently purchaced the Astatic final edition for use on my RCI 2985DX. Having a little trouble setting (understanding) the mic gain. On the 575 handheld that I was using, the radio mic gain was set wide open, and the mic's adjustment was set about halfway. This combo seemed to work very...
