    A True SWR Mystery

    How long has it been up? Weather proofing does break down over time. It only takes a pinhole size opening for moisture to wick its way in. The coax moving could break the seal over time. Cold weather can make it more stiff and if the coax moves, it can woller it out enough for a drop to get in...

    Smokey and the CB

    Our vol. fire department, local PD and SO used to monitor Ch.9 but as stated before, this was years ago, especially since cell phones have replaced just about every other form of comms. AL. Troopers still have CBs in most of their patrol cars but stay on 19 listening for traffic about...

    SWR issues with more power..

    When 1st running a new system or checking the amp, we'd run 2 meters. 1 between the radio and amp and 1 between the amp and antenna.

    12V Lead Acid Batteries and how they respond to voltage and current in charging?

    Sadly....I'm just that crazy/stupid, so I gotta try it. Can't really think of WHY I'd need to do this but that pretty much sums up 90% of my life choices. :ROFLMAO:

    Re-claim 16 LSB contest Dec 24-31, 2022

    I heard some faint voices but couldn't tell if it was 16LSB or the bucket mouths on 15 AM bleeding over. No contacts for me. Even cheating with 900 I couldn't make it. 38LSB was difficult also, 28 AM was a cake walk though....:confused:
