I have a small issue that I an trying to resolve. I have a noise on a single frequency that I use. It is 146.820 with a negitive offset. It is one of my radio clubs repeaters. It is very well used by our members. It seams that I am the only one that is having this problem and it's only this...

For those interested I saw this antenna and thought I would share. Check this Antenna out from Green Wave Scientific. http://www.greenwavescientific.com/datasheets/Datasheet%20VHF%20antenna%20Mudflap%20Antennas.pdf

I was wondering if people could please recommend some good external speakers for my FTM-350 that I have in my van? I want something that sounds good, has enough volume to be heard while the window is down and not too expensive. I have already listened to a pair of Yaesu MLS-200's and they...

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to convert the data comming from the built in TNC on the FTM-350? I have the usb data cable pluged into my radio and my laptop. I can get it to work well with UI-View and APRSIS32. No problems at all. I want to use that conection with AGWPE but it...

I am thinking of getting a BUXCOMM ATTIC-ANT to put up in my attic. it's a 67' dipole. To put it in my attic I will have to zig-zag it around a bit. Does anyone have and experience with this antenna or is there a better option out there? The attic and my balcony are my only options for...

I have a question about signal-to-noise ratio on my ICOM 746 Pro. Specifically it relates to the 40 m band. Right now my antenna that I am using is a 10-40m TAK-tenna multiband antenna. I have it tuned to 7.2 MHz with an SWR of 1.2:1. The problem that I'm having is that I am getting a signal...

I have questions about the firmware updates and the extended TX modification. Should I do the extended TX mod before or after I do the firmware updates? Do I need to install firmware update 1.1 and then 1.2 or will just installing 1.2 cover all the changes? :confused: Thanks in advance.

Hi Everyone, I was wondering if I could get some HF antenna suggestions for my townhouse? I live in a antenna restricted community. I have no option to place anything outside. No flag poles, push up masts, nothing under the eaves or anything on the roof. I don't have a yard, it is all common...

I am wondering if a mobile antenna (2m/70cm) with a mag mount stuck to the flashing on top of my chimney would work. The flashing is 2-1/2' x 4'. Would that provide enough ground plane if the antenna was placed in 1' x 1' from the corner? The furnace vent is in the center. Thanks

I was wondering if anyone could tell me if the LDG 200Pro antenna tuner was any good. I am going to be connecting it to an ICOM 746Pro radio and a Chameleon dipole antenna. With using the LDG 200Pro should I also have an SWR meter as well? If so can someone recommend a meter that does not cost...

I probably already know the answer to this question but here it goes. I performed the Extended TX mod to my VX-8DR a few weeks ago. I thought everything was ok with the radio. At the time of the mod I had not checked the APRS functions. The radio TX and RX on all bands works fine. My issue...

Here is a question, of those of you that have done the extended TX Mod on your VX-8R/DR has anyone compared the performance of the marine frequencies to that of a dedicated VHF Marine HT? If so what was the outcome? I am going to do the mod to my radio if the results are fairly comparable. Thanks

I have a question for the group. Can anyone tell me how I can I stop my radio from locking my van doors every time that I key the mike when transmitting on high power. It also does it when the APRS beacons:oops:. It is dam annoying but kind of funny at the same time:tongue_smilie:. Any...
