    Thank you all for the info. The challenge is finding someone who would know a bit about the radio and want to work on it.

    SBE Console V shops

    I understand that a radio that has never been used is just as problematic as a radio that was in use. Thats why I am looking for someone with experience with Console V's to go thru the radio and check it out. I have no problem putting money in the radio if it needs it. The radio works fine right...

    SBE Console V shops

    Hello, I just picked up a new in box NOS SBE Console V. Does anyone know of a shop that has experience working with these radios? The radio is a little off frequency on SSB and I would like to get it aligned and checked over. I would even be open to recapping the radio if it needs it even...

    ASTROPLANE best vertical antenna ever?

    Marconi, Thank you for the info. Is there any truth that aluminum/metal antennas have less "white noise" than fiberglass antennas? I run a Yaesu that is very good on receive and I can filter down the static but I just hate to not give the new Targa/Astroplane a try for old time sake.

    ASTROPLANE best vertical antenna ever?

    I'm really torn on taking everything down and going backwards on performance.

    ASTROPLANE best vertical antenna ever?

    After reading this thread completely I am still not sure of which antenna to run. I currently have a Gainmaster up at about 40ft at the coil. Works great, no issues except at some times of the day a higher static/white noise issue. I live in a highly industrialized area. Other than that I'm...
