    Anytone AT-778UV Scrambler?

    I was wondering if anyone else has one of these rigs. It is a great radio, and I like it a lot.... I tried an experiment the other night, that didn't work as advertised... I have the factory programming software, and programming cable, so I set up a channel and turned on the "scrambler"...

    ICOM HM -219 Hand mic smokes the HM-36

    I have always looked at the Alinco SR8T... it seems to be very much like the IC-718, except it has FM. Are they a decent rig? That is probably very true, it is the only HF rig I've ever had, so it works for me.

    ICOM HM -219 Hand mic smokes the HM-36

    I've never had any trouble DX'ing with mine... and FM? only for 10M? I don't even miss it.. I have had my first 718 since 2002... it was $450 back then, then picked up a second one about 10 years ago second hand with an AT-130 Antenna Tuner from a friend for $400 total. Even today, it is $400...

    Knight C-577 Compressor- anyone ever seen one?

    Swapped the only electrolytic (C2 in the schematic) it was a 50uf/10V, I had a 68uf/10V close enough Looks like the gain dropped a tad, looks like it cleaned up the signal a bit.

    Knight C-577 Compressor- anyone ever seen one?

    I picked Knight C-577 Compressor up at a local hamfest a while back... she is an oldie for sure... I got some time to throw it on the bench today... signal generator input, monitored the O'scope on the output... it works.... and doesn't take much at all to drive it The meter needle has broke...

    But technically, to be on the "normal 40" you have to stay on the 5s I was part of a SSB group a couple years back, we used 370 USB
