Look at this crazy thing


The 4 Meter Amateur Band. Great roundup.
4-meter band - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Current Amateur Users looks like most of Europe and then South Africa. Looks like all permitted activity is only between 70.000~70.500 - Which is why the op shows and keeps coming back to 70.425 in the video. Nicely capable rig comes as 66~88mhz which is a much bigger chunk of real estate. All common modes are allowed so I'd like to see an AM/FM/SSB 4 Meter rig with at or near 66~88 mhz.

I wonder if there is much free banding going on below 70.000 and above 70.500? Any one know? Represent up Euro WWRF Members!

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
