NO I DID NOT KNOW!!! And NO I did not know it had been butchered up. The lady I bought it from...her husband had passed. She was selling his equipment and didn't know a thing about it other than it was practically new. IF I'd have known I'd still have bought it as, #1 I didn't know the...

Everyone please be advised...The Radio Active bunch is a joke...I bought a 2995DX from the original owner. He had RA "Whack Up" a perfectly good radio! The Low power has hardly any DK and high power is way too high..to the point that it will not modulate properly...overdriven. I had my techs...

I am needing a telescoping/push up pole to mount my old Avanti sigma 5/8. Needs to be at least 40 ft tall. I will travel within 300 miles to pick up. Also would like to consider A Tilting tower. Minimum 50 ft.

Agree I concur with the others. IF you can get the DK DOWN on the 2970 to no more than 2-3 watts you MIGHT be able to run the Texas Star. I personally would NOT recommend the DM. Just because it doesn't have SSB switching. I do have a Comp DM it was custom made with SSB. I bought it from a lady...

May I suggest to you that you may at some point need a larger PS?? I highly recommend the Mega-Watt S-400-12 from E-Bay. This is all the guy sells. These are rated at 30amps 100% and 36 amps for 90%...I have ran a Texas star DX399 and a 2 Pill Fat Boy on this PS with NO problems at all!! Yes it...

Hi. I have one of the old models before they put the WX on them. It does this on key up and un key. I also have a 2995DX NEW radio that does the same thing. It doesn't matter what mic I am running and if I am running an amp or bare radio. Did you ever find out anything on this?? It is a minor...

Great replies! I totally agree on the SSB issue. I love SSB...DX is much better, easier to contact my relatives in Ireland, the UK and Germany...many other places. Even with my 2 Pill Tex star DX399 (Using the 2980). It will swing to about 400 on USB.on the 2980. The 2980 has never been opened...

Now THIS is information I CAN UNDERSTAND!!!! Thank YOU so very much! A lot of times people assume that I am running to P^#* out of everything because the majority do...my $$$ is too hard to come by to just see it go up in electrical smoke! Thank You again. It does the 20+ DK on am for whatever...

More about this Soooo...enlighten me please. I am NOT being a smart A** but do not know...it is so blasted confusing to me. Yes, the 2980 will DK from 1 watt all the way UP to 20 watts (Rated at 25 PEP) This is on AM. I have NOT tried the 2980 at any higher DK then 5 watts on any amp as...

Grinch D104 I have a very good looking (NO scratches, dents etc...Like NEW) D104 I bought in the 70's. I had stopped using it due to the contacts, head and most of the other parts were "Shot". I found out about "Grinch Radio" through Google search. I wanted to use the old D104 as it was...

Yes This Dave Made is a "True" Comp Amp. What is the difference?? This one has 2 huge power supplies inside (This is a BASE model runs off 110) I has extra large capacitors and resistors along with other additional parts. I am having a relay replaced on it as one of the terminals was...

91CDriver Thank you 91Cdriver! This helps me understand the principle more than all the "Advice" I have heard from operators...I do have one amp that is for 10 meters that I'd like to use...It is a Dave Made 2 pill competition amp. It has extra large and extra capacitors and has 2 huge power...

I am DUMB when it comes to these "NEW" technological wonders in radio amps....HOW can I determine what type of amp and how much minimum and maximum dead key from each particular radio to use on the proper amp...I am told to put in no more than 1 1/2 DK on this and then, no put 4 to 5 watts DK...

JUNK As with OST ALL Chinese made electronics this antenna is JUNK! Advertise all this and that...but in the real world less than half the signal at a distance than a regular antenna. I got one just to try it. The cox length is a scam. You'd be much better off with a wire strung around than...

Nope No, I can't see it...that is what I am so blasted confused about. Although it is a "Competition amp" it makes no sense...in fact the entire set up makes no sense...build a fine piece of electronics like this for only 2 transistors...BTW it has 2-2879's.

I have a "Dave Made" 2 pill competition amp. I came on it by...well a kind of freak way. I didn't actually want it. I bought a RCI 2995 from a person and they included it just to get rid of it. I have been told all kind of different things about this. I've been told don't push more than 4...

Thanks Thanks Guys. I may get my "Stuff" together today and try to solder the wires to the connector. I have a "Tremor" in my hands and very difficult to solder the very small stuff without making a freaking mess. It is so frustration, especially when I "used to be" and expert welder....It is...

Don't know yet It came supposedly wired up for 4 pin. I hooked it to my RCI 2980 and it won't do anything. The plug doesn't "Feel" right on the fit either. I will take it with me next time I go see my Tech and see what happens. It looks just like the Johnson with exception it has the lock...

Does anyone have info on a Turner CS--3 Special Mic? I have searched everyone of the engines Google, Yahoo, MSN etc to find nothing. It doesn't appear to be a power mic. I have one coming today I picked up cheap. Needing technical info on it if it is available anywhere. Looks just like a +3...

I have a "passel" of mics and radios for that matter. I have yet to find a good all purpose mic that sounds good for the way I have to "do" while talking...here goes, I have tried noise cancelling. IF I get just an inch or two away from these type no one can hear me....Then I use a stock mike...
