    g5rv dipole

    Actually it's an older 706 not an MKII or MKIIG so it only has 10 watts on 2 meters. I was kind of hoping to set up something to either talk to you on 2m ssb or 6 m ssb. On 6m the radio is 100 watts, so that might be better. Is your 6m antenna horizontal or verticle? I am still a tech, I just...

    Got ammunition? HMMMMM?

    Re: f I fear this is the simple truth. Unfortunately it seems to be all private property, not just weapons, though they REALLY don't want us to have those.

    COULDN'T HAVE SAID IT BETTER MYSELF!

    Very nice AR! Wish I could own one :roll: Some things about Cali suck..... Probably a good time to stock up on those, they may come in handy soon. Scary world we live in, isn't it?

    Need help with antenna mounting.

    I am going to move the CB on a 102" whip to the back, but I am still not sure about the 2 meter antenna. I have a little time, because I am tearing this truck apart right now and doing a front axle rebuild and some other pretty expensive stuff. I am not really that sure about mounting the...

    Need help with antenna mounting.

    Are those mounts very strong? The only other problem I see is that they only mount on one side and I have two antennas. Any one use these?

    Need help with antenna mounting.

    How do you mount antennas in the crevice in betweer the hood and the fender? I have seen it done, but what mount do you use?

    Need help with antenna mounting.

    Here's the truck: I am running a Uniden CB with a Wilson 1000 mag mount antenna, and a Icom 2 meter with a Hustler mag mount. Both antennas on the roof. Problem is, when I go wheeling, the antenna's get ripped off by branches and stuff. I was thinking about mounting a whip on...

    GMRS mobiles?

    I'd guess that I could go read it somewhere, but is it legal to modify a ham radio 70cm to transmit on gmrs frequencies? As long as you are within the power limits or whatever?

    6 meter all mode wanted

    My next radio is a Yeasu FT8900R. Cross band repeat will be very nice to have. Actually we have two 6 meter repeaters here that a few local hams frequent, so owning a 6 meter only radio here is slightly justified.

    Hello all.

    In the 4runner I am running a Uniden 520xl to a mag mount wilson 1000 and a Icom IC-V8000 to a hustler MX-7 mag mount. The unfortunate (kinda) thing is that this truck has a removable top and a sunroof, so there is not much roof space to mount antennas. I have been thinking about the ball mounts...

    6 meter all mode wanted

    NOPE, unfortunately, they look like a pretty good rig. I'll have to keep an eye out on ebay. How do they compare to Azden's or Rangers?
