Good Job!

help.... my mfj 949c is acting weird. when i key up.. the swr side needle can swing negative(below 0 swr).. whats going on?. upon testing with another meter, when it swings negative, its actually an increasing swr. i can adjust it to go on the positive side of the swr reading with the...

this might sound obvious, but take it to a different room and plug it in, see if things change,, what are the chances of 2 power supplies being bad? My ps-52kx makes a momentarey buzz when i turn it on. check continuity at your breaker on the back left corner, maybe its bad. or perhaps its...

happy holidays tony. kinda curious,,, why did you want our ham callsigns?..

I like my kenwood tm-271a. puts out 60 watts and is very small . and supposedly mil-spec.. rugged...(whatever that really means)

so has anyone figured out what the signal bounced off of? 46 seconds x 186,000 miles a second equals 8,556,000 miles divided by 2 equals 4,278,000 miles away.. there is no astronomical body at 4,278,000 miles from earth.perhaps a passing meteor.or a piece of solar plasma from the storm,, thats...

Ya i was more interested in knowing about outside the 2 meter band, specifically the 150 mhz- 170 mhz f.m. business band area..

.

I was wondering what happens if you want to use the atas 120a antenna out of the ham bands,, does it tune?. or not.. been thinking of getting one to hook to a yaesu 857d,, but i dont want to waste my money or time,, if it does not work,, thnxs in advance for any help

:lol: same here, i dont post my call sign,, as i dont want everyone to know who i am or where i live.( my address is posted on the f.c.c. site with my call sign.) i wouldn't want you all to show up uninvited for dinner if i wasn't prepared.

I had a strange one last year. i was getting rf on different areas of the hf bands. sometimes strong 7 db+. sometimes would only be 3db. I eventually figured out ,it was my multiplug power strip that i use to turn everything off when i am done using the radios. I replaced that ,now everything...

Make sure its legit.. It would be fairly simple for someone to look up online, all the local ham 's in your area and just start using there call signs to make you think it is the local hams doing this. sometimes things are not as they seem. would hate to see you go on the offensive against...

sim, sim sim, é bonito. Eu sou ciumento. Eu trabalhei o ano passado em manaus e na selva de amazon:laugh:

I have been hearing alot of traffic this week from 27.415 thru 27.915 its been mostly south america and mexico.. L.S.B. ( i live in oregon).. I am sure the F.C.C. frowns on using free band so i never transmit .. has anyone that we know ever been busted for operating out of band? I use an imax...

THNXS guys, yep,, its a 5 bander. thnxs for the info.. i will start searching for a 40 amp power supply.:thumbup:
