Holy thread hijack:rolleyes:
Well I got the radio all hooked up and talked on it all weekend. I am no radio tech and don’t care to even attempt to get into that side of the discussion but I can say that I am getting great feedback from the local guys here with reports of loud clean audio...
Thanks for the FEEDBACK LOL!!:wink:
I have been running the TNT with a SPARKY tuned SS158edx from my truck hooked up to my base antenna and was getting good reports from the local guys. No bleed over here at the house and no complaints.
This radio is a little more power than the 158...
I just ordered a Sparky tuned General Lee with top gun mod to run at home for a base radio. I also ordered a Astron 70 amp supply, I want to run this combo with my TNT 350HD thru my 5/8 maco.The radio is supossed to dead key 2 watts on low.
Just looking for some feedback on this set-up, hope...
I have been bitten by the upgrade bug again and am trying to make a logical decision.
I am currently running an unmolested cobra 2000 bare foot that has good audio just not monster audio. I kind of want to leave it alone and setup another rig to run as my primary base radio.
I already have...
Well here is my short list of amps I have been looking at for the past week. The prices I have listed are from the web. I have a few leads for better pricing on some of these however I did not include those here. I want to make sure I am spending my money wisely and exploring all options...
Thanks again guys for the advice.:thumbup1:
I am leaning towards the Texas Star 500 at this point however I will not rule out the Midnight Special 500 either. My budget is tight right now and the MS500 is far cheaper. I only talk on AM and I want a box that I can come up out of the mud...
Thanks for the feedback:thumbup1: Can you please explain why I don't want variable? It seems that is what most places sell and would like to understand the pros and cons.
Again thanks.

Hello all,
I have been running this Sparky tuned radio for a little over a week now and I absolutely love it, it's getting tons of good reports. However I am already looking for the next upgrade to my system, does it ever stop? The radio dead keys just about 3 to 3.5 watts and swings to...
Yeah thanks for standing behind your statements.;)
My radio went back at the beginning of last week and I talked with Sparky on Monday 2-23-09, he stated that there was an issue in the Rodger beep circuit and he is just going to send me a new radio. I am happy with this outcome; I would...
This is my thinking as well. He already has the radio and I should here something back by Monday. I can say that he must be very busy because phone conversations with him are rather abrupt, but that could be a good thing.:unsure: Also when the radio was working it sounded great that alone...
Need some help identifying an amp. I need to find out who made it so I can get more info for it? The amp should be pretty broadband but I cannot get the swr down, I have to run an antenna tuner so the radio sees 50ohm.
Thanks in advance.
