I don't have much experience with building different antennas and such which leads me to my question. I am looking for an antenna that will cover a wide range of bands, have any of you ever used the IMAX-2000? It is my understanding that the IMAX covers 10m-17m with a small decline in receive...

I really like the map tool that you sent. I have a very extensive background in constructing carrier vehicles and their payloads. The only difference is I am used to working through a water column and now we are working through the atmosphere. Although they both host their own variables (water...

Dang brother thanks for the link, seriously.

I appreciate the replies, I am looking forward to taking the exams will prob do the Tech and Gen in one sitting. I have always wanted to do this when I retire and the time is now, much excitement.

Nope it stops at 28.307 so the whole band is not covered.

Hey thanks for the reply, I listen from time to time when I'm not decoding digital voice but never pick up on anything. I listen on my 11m radio (10m export) also and nothing there but I don't think it covers the whole 10m band, I would have to check.

N00b HAM question... Is 10m used much? I don't hear much on the band when I visit it on SDR and my Ranger. If it is being used what activity is found there?

Yup I'll get around to it over the next day or so, got seriously sidetracked between unrelated equipment issues and relocating plans. Coming soon, my apologies...

Got the noise issue taken care of, after a little troubleshooting it was determined to be the antenna.

Picked up on a used Astron 32A power supply today for $100, lucked out on this deal. Got it from an old HAM that I had a chance to sit and visit with. Awesome guy with lots of knowledge, always a pleasure talking with the elders. 6345

Roger that Mag, it's hard to watch but you can't help them unless they have enough. The reality is all you can hope for is that nothing happens to them before they hit rock bottom. God bless brother...

I have two daughters and a son that are on the wrong path. I blame myself a lot of times because I was never there, I literally spent 20+ years at sea up until 2016. I was so focused on my career and providing financially, I didn't balance life is what it came down to. Would they have gotten...

Not sure if it is coming through over the air, could not reach a contact out here tonight. It is a RCI-39VHP, it just started doing it when I turned it on tonight. All good though, I will troubleshoot it. I just thought maybe someone had this happen to them.

I am having issues with my radio. When I dead key there is a noise, the best that I can describe what's coming across the talk back is if you would hold the mic out the window at 70mph. It literally sounds like wind coming through the talk back. This is a first for me, has anyone else...

Video E001 still on for today, will probably record in a couple of hours when it cools off a bit outside. Will upload as soon as the video is recorded, updates will continue to roll... #droppinghints #NoComputerToEdit #MobileEditingOnTheFly #Demos #Tutorials

Well I have only tried the 1411 6ft off of the ground and it works well, when I get back to TX I want to order another (along with an A-99) and throw them in the air to compare the results.

Capt, I feel like a total idiot brother... The shame... I switched to desktop view on my phone and there it was. Matter of fact the site looks pretty bad ass. I'm taking pain meds also and have only been able to sleep 4ish hours per night for some time so given the fixed variables in the...

Awesome, thanks all. I guess it is either a phone/browser issue. Once again, much appreciated.

Hey Capt thanks for the reply, I have all of that entered. The issue is that I don't see the signature being applied, also I don't see anyone else's signature. Not sure what's going on, I am using Firefox on Android but that should not matter. Out of ideas here.

I'm not able to utilize or see signatures, is it a permissions issue? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
