If you listen to "the travel channel" (19) then I think it's safe to say that it's as experimental as it gets and that the FCC doesn't care about it or 99% of their "rules".

I don't think you have to worry about buying anything from them. It's either not available from them or just not available for whatever reason the wholesalers are out of most everything now days. It would be interesting to know what their junk 2030+'s are really but they're only hyped up by...

Awesome. So how do we get a hold of him to buy them now?

I'm bringing sexy back AND this thread... so is Kale still alive and building these antenna's or has someone else taken over the chore?

Just wait a damn minute... there are some of us here that don't believe sh_t stinks until we smell it and that Kool-Aid isn't bad until you taste it. You have no right to keep me from samplin' that Aid... come on!!

I don't know but that would be my guess as well. I won't thread-jack but you can guarantee it's scope tuned and has sand in the PL259 threads...

Did you figure that in "free space", such as a vacuum? 27.205 in free space with a VF of .84 would be 15.195 feet or 182.34 inches. A wavelength would be 36.179 feet or 434.15 inches. Regardless, 15 ft would fit the 1/2 wave bill. But I gotta say, there's no magic length to coax and I'm...

This is exactly what everyone needs to be doing, paying attention to what he's saying and "showing", which is much of nothing. Let's start with his "calibrated test equipment" which is only the HP/Agilent 8920B (obsolete), that's the only piece he waves his expired paperwork all about in his...

True. Let us all remember that a small donation to the ASPCA might actually #savemofo from the torment of the Skippy peanut butter and what Sherman actually does with it.

Good sounding radio? Should, it's an out of the box radio unless what I heard was true and he actually got the radio from Snake Radios. Skills? At what? Being a troll or a moron? It's certainly not repairing radios. Maybe you mean lying and slandering, he's pretty skilled there. Ah yes, his...

LC is hitting bullseye’s here, as usual. Mike hit the nail on the head, recap. I skimmed so I might have missed it but - corrosive/conductive glue. Look for it. Might not have a “bad” crystal but one where the leg has been eat off due to that glue. I’ll stress - recap - because I have two...

How the LPF “was” or “contained” this foldback that doesn’t exist. Not a verbatim quote.

It was four but I trimmed it down.

Yes, it is what it is, a radio without any foldback circuit. You could simply point it out in the schematic but you choose not to because you know good and well it’s just NOT there. If I’m dumb as a box of rocks and you’re a genius, you can simply show me even if I didn’t understand one single...

Tell me you're backpedaling without telling me you're backpedaling. 1) Fingers were put into it to prove a point and I believe that point was proven, very well too. 2) There's never been a cb radio with a foldback in it, never. For the most part the only "swr" circuit in most CB's has been...

An LPF network doesn’t contain anything related to limiting or stopping a transmitter nor reducing power. I’ll take a wild stab and say in that radio it’s probably designed to pass anything less than 35mhz. But reduce power or limit power or stop the radio from transmitting…come on, really...

Right, a foldback circuit would lower the power in an attempt to save the radio. That radio doesn’t have such a circuit, if it does, how about you show us on the schematic. That SWR protection can be turned off. It’s either transmit or no transmit - not reduced power. If it had the transmitter...

What does the TOT have to do with anything? You can turn that off. For the rest of it, it was modeled and it's nothing more than a low pass filter.

There’s no foldback in that radio, nor any other Anytone radio. In a sense, the radio being modulated or not doesn’t matter. If it were modulated, it might - MIGHT - have went boom or pop. Heat is heat, regardless of the source but still. Possibly if it had been modulated maybe it would’ve...

I like Nomad. Plus neither of those guys are here or know anything about the stuff we’re interested in.
