Tall man, nothing special really.
RCI 2970N2, Turner CS1 desk mic running off an Astron 70M ps, Imax 2K and a 4 element MaCo yagi.
It's not up as high as I'd like it but it gets the job done.
Are you a tech license or general or no ticket at all? I does not matter to me. When I got my ham tickets I had a uniden hr2510 and a bunch of 2 meter junk that was given to me 2970 is a good radio I gave it to my son for a present. Now I have more radios and amps than I'll ever use..

I know what you can do with some of them, haha.

No don't have the time. I've had several 2510/Lincoln's over the yrs. All Doc tuned. Had several other radios wish I could have kept them but needed to thin out the herd.
I run a Uniden 980SSB with an old school turner mic and a 102" SS whip on the pick up.

Hey! A bunch of us resemble that. We don't pick on people unless you get sanctimonious AND disrespectful.
In fact this is one of the best forums around. Some of the best technical advice comes from this board.
 
Not since I was shopping for a radio and you used the "SITH Mind trick" on me and caused me to buy another Handy Talky just like one I already had. I heard "That is the radio you need, and buy a Galaxy 959 as well."

Haha, you crazy. I’d talk you into something besides a 959, bigger and more expensive.

    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
  • @ AudioShockwav:
    Wes, it's better if you start a thread on the main forum, more people are going to see your question.
  • @ heartbreaker3473:
    Okay, sorry, will put in a forum
