I've read topics, searched forums, and the Web till I'm blue in the face. About the time I've made my mind up read to place an order, I read something else and I back off my order. This is my ultimate question which everyone on the forum has asked or answered more then once so I apologize in advance. BTW, if anyone has anything for sale please PM me. With all that said...
This is for mobile use, transceiver is a 1969 final version Magnum s9. Radio keys 2.5 to 3 watts on AM, swings to the max of what ever 1969 finals do. (Different watt meters so I'm not sure) SSB swings the same. Radio has very clean, natural loud audio using a 575m6 mic and using a Sirio P5000 mag mount it tuNed to 1.2 Swr on channel 1 and 1.3 on channel 40 with radio on full dead key power.
On a quiet morning around 6:30am, I can make 60 mile contact on SSB very easy to a base station. But if there is a touch of noise I get lost in the muck. So what I'm looking for is something that will get me over that hump, and sound clean on both AM and SSB, and last. I had a TNT 350 HD awhile back and had Swr trouble in my jeep. But, a Jeep isn't really a good vehicle for a high powered radio set up anyway. DX 350 HDV? Thanks in advance
