I installed my Maco 5/8 GP on 60' of fence top rail (3 X 20') with another 5' piece buried at the base and all connections between poles where sanded and then bolted together. Mast runs against my chimney to the 48' mark and is firmly secured at 6' intervals and 3 antenna chimney straps spread...

(n)How will we all explain to our significant other that we now need another new radio?

Have a customer that has this exact handheld and loves it. States he can't see spending more for one as this fits his needs.

Looks like I poked a stick in a hornets nest here. I like the sounds of the SB200 but finding one seems difficult. I mainly run SSB and clarity is my major goal here, No I don't run my 257 wide open into my TS and actually I haven't been using it lately as either I have no conditions or when I...

I think it's going to be this x force amp. 1x4Pill - Xtra Duty - Hi Drive - Base.

I currently have my 257hp hooked to a Texas Star dx350hd with a switching power supply to run it. So I am running 2 power supplies 1 for the radio and 1 for my amp. I would like to buy a base amp of say 500 to 750 watts for mainly SSB use. I want to move my TS 350hd to my mobile hooked to a...

O.K. got it! Thanks for the help. My wife says I'm addicted to this site! Now that I'm learning the new site I love the changes and once again thanks to all of you who help keep this site going.

O.K. Had the day to play with the new site and I do like it and please don't think I don't ......but......Why is it that unlike how the site use to be when I clicked new posts after logging in it would show me the last post for each post and now I have to click recent activity and EVERY comment...

I was bored and looked at the dxmembers list next to my name in ( ) it has a zero what is this? And what are trophy points? Do I get to cash them in for a discount on something? :D

Nice improvements. Easier to read.

Comparing a 959 to any of the mentioned radios is a joke. I've owned a few before my current 257hp and will never own another. As for my pics in order would be the Optima, Rci2970, 257hp, Rci2950, and if it was legal cb your xl followed by the Uniden 980.

I'm using a Magnum257HP but I also like the RCI 2950 or 2970.

Why are you limited to 5 foot? Wish I had a pic of my Imax before selling it. Some on here will remember me saying I mounted a pole saw handle to one of those 4 legged portable road sign bases with my I max on it. Used it about 3 months and would lay it down next to house when not in use. You...

I ( in a moment of radio blindness) bid on a box of radios and radio crap and won:headbang:scared: I only bid on this because no body else did at a silent auction. Anyway for $15 I got 4 old 8-10 channel crystal police scanners different brands. a set of old Realistic TRC-83 3 channel 1 watt...

WHY NOT A PUSH UP POLE? i USED A POLE SAW EXTENDABLE HANDLE ONCE.

never thought of the stereo mono thing. will look into it tonight.

Klondike Mike How do you "point" a Imax 2000? It's a omni directional antenna. :confused: I had one but never heard of a way to make it directional?:confused:

Sorry for your loss.

I have never used headphones or speakers before until a few days ago. I used beats by dre in ear ear buds and found I could here myself like talkback when using them (didn't like it.) So today I tried my amplified jvc computer speakers and had the same talkback effect plus a squeal depending on...
