I just bought a Radioddity QT40. I will use it between my RV and as a base station at home. Any thoughts, pluses or minuses? It will arrive Saturday.
 

Thanks....
I have said this before on this forum. I have ALL of the Radioddity 10m SSB radios. There is some mojo going on in the QT-40 receiver. Let's forget about the cost, which is undeniably cheap, for what it is. It really has a nice receiver and the feature set, simply blows everything else in its class away. It looks like a CB radio, which has the old school cool factor, which is why I got it to begin with. Then you start playing with all it can do, while you are faced with a 148GTL, Grant Xl, Superstar 3900 looking thing, with lots of freq coverage, programmable roger beeps, noise reduction, frequency display (it uses the channel display 2 digits at a time), yadda yadda.

I sit there with this thing in front of me, thinking I would have been king shit back in the day, with one of these.
 
Nice looking set-up. Thanks for all information. I then saw the QT60 & QT80, but I'll play around with this radio first for a while. What kind of antenna do you use with the QT40?

    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

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