No need to "add me", i'm still relatively new to the radio world. But if you want to you can click on my profile image and view my account/profile page, there is a "Follow" button I don't know what it does yet but I think you get updates whenever I post something??

You can do that if you like, but a lot of stuff is still beyond my understanding..
I am glad you got it going with clear Audio!!!
That makes me happy when something works out.

All The Best.

(I usually hang out & rag-chew on 28, but I manually "scan" the band often so I hope to catch you on some good skipping shooting DX one day)

I thought your numbers sounded familiar Leap. I am on the east coast, Daytona Bch., area. Have talked to some of you guys over there a few times on 38lsb.

And Gr1m just keep your eyes & ears open you will come across a sweet s.s.b. rig again!

It's a small world. Keep it clean and mean brother!! Hopefully we can talk again soon! The band has been dead!! Some sporadic stuff, but mostly the early morning crew I hear over around the Ocala area. Again, catch you soon if conditions permit! And keep up the good work man!

Thanks brother, hopefully soon! I'm trying to keep it clean as possible without all the test equipment, i'm learning still and have a ways to go yet but thank you 222!

Got one more question if anyone can answer I bought a new Wilson 2000 antenna today and had amp out of line to check swr and got it 1.1 across the band and checked my power readings and I was getting 1 watt swinging 3 then put amp inline to check swr and power and with the amp off my deadkey was lower with amp inline is this bad my meter said .4 of a watt swinging 1 1/2 watts. Is this normal? Swr was still 1.1 with amp off and amp on and switch on high 1.4 swr.

 

[222DBFL]

It's possible to lose a little power going through the amp. As long everything is working, leave it be. JMHO.

 

[LeapFrog]

I don't think it will hurt anything to lose a little output, although I think it's being reflected back into the radio from the amp.

1.1 with amp off and amp on and switch on high 1.4 swr

The reason your SWR is changing could be from the input/output tune of the amp, but I am not sure.
