depressing but understandable Its depressing but understandable, that in this day and age, no one but the most die hard CB fanatics will wear a 8 ft + antenna. Given that, they would have to sell them to the few that will want one but at a cost that those who want one might not be willing to...

shorter francis are still being manufactured today brand new. The 96" francis are discontinued long ago, unfortunately.

I use the Wilson 4' Flex on my superbike. It's the only serious antenna that I have found with the thin flexibility required for my specific install. I don't intend to wack it much except for slight bend when moving out of the garage. It does appear somewhat fragile on close inspection...

I will pay good money for Francis Amazer, just let me know I'm still on a recovered Amazer a friend gave me several years back. I treated it with a nice refinishing, but after a couple of years its due again. I will pay great money for someone's great condition Amazer or final run Wheeler...

Its made well, if anything with a higher quality circuit board than ever, nice and neat layout inside. As an eletret mic with ic equalization, the response curve is flatter than a lollipop on the bottom end, and rising high freq characteristic as the other D104s. What results is a powerful mic...

considering these three mentioned , the U.S. made Dosy is the best considering these three mentioned , the U.S. made Dosy is the best in terms of durability and accuracy, IMO. The Astatic 600 is second. I'd go for the Dosy even if i have to move to the single meter models for the higher power...

Hey man Hey man I do talk like that in real life, not all the time no doubt about it, but some of those phrases are real ice-breakers, fills up awkward silence, emphasizes what else is being said, what's wrong with that?? I'm back out.

Dosy is calibrated to the same standard as Bird... Circuit design differences and variability in production will cause all of these meters to read off by a percentage, wheter it'd be a Dosy or a Bird.

Huh? are you trying to be funny? Huh? are you trying to be funny? the Bird thruline is not unlike other meters in the way they read and what components they use, as a matter of fact the Bird uses much less components than most SWR meters, the difference is in the Bird Architecture, with a...

WTB Francis CB50 / CB28 "Amazer", "Wheeler Dealer". Top price paid for excellent or new examples of this antenna. Please contact me if you have one in great condition and want to make some cash off of it. Thanks.

anyone with a new or mint one for sale, CB50/ CB28? Bump, anyone with a new or mint one for sale, CB50/ CB28? I'm interested, just let me know.

I like the way this looks I have 2x DosyTC-4002-PSW, just want to add this to the fold as it looks so cool:thumbup:.

Dosy is cool Dosy is cool, with its RMS measure setting and its "Lite" switch. Works for me, and it can work for you!:wink::wink:

"Never mind, you answered it, and still do not get it, You Calculate RMS, you do NOT read it on a Dosy meter. Dosy has mislabeled the meter and always will, and the myth will live on despite the effort to teach otherwise. 73 Jeff There is nothing to get, your point is meaningless, or...

Yes, and they spell light "Lite" for their light switch Yes, and they spell light, "Lite" for their light switch. The measurement is ballpark, that by accident it might just read average or calculated RMS or true peak depending on charge and decay of capacitors :). Its usefullness as a...
