In your case, even a smaller kinetik battery between you car battery and amplifier can make a difference in current/voltage drops. That alone can help stabilize things quite a bit. The smaller Kinetik battery sounds interesting ? I'm curious on what you might suggest on those ? Sounds kind of...

Thanks a lot for everyone's time on this one , much appreciated ! I guess in my situation concerning what I do have , knowing my own limitations can save my ass . I don't need anymore power just enough power to comfortably run what I have or down grade if I need to . Like I said , guys use those...

Thanks guys for the replies , my thought wasn't about getting more power out of the amp . I run about 6 feet of heavy 8 gage to my amp from the battery , I'm seeing a little dimming of my headlights at night when talking on SSB , I was just wondering if one of those caps might be of any help...

It would be on sideband , could you recommend one ? Thanks Shock

Was just wondering if or how one of these might be helpful behind a Texas Star DX500 in your vehicle ? What would I look for concerning the size I might need ? and how are they even hooked up ? The pros and cons if any . Sounds interesting and just was wondering if they could be of help . Thanks SK

yeah , been wondering about one of those myself ? just trying to save a buck if at all possible . I have not seen any reviews on them but there all over Ebay roughly the same prices . The Chinese are at it again . (-:

This is a big bump here but pretty much new to me . I guess I was always behind the times even when I thought I wasn't . These DSP/DNR speakers are down right amazing ! THEY WORK ! I was so impressed with the noise reduction on the AT5555N2's and how much they cleaned noise up that it put my...

Oh no , I hear what your say'in Shade , I run mine on D mode with the freq read out all the time . I realize that if you switch to channels 1 thur 40 mode you need to align and make sure they are in sequence (and this is the newest version similar to the Stryker 955 V2 . ) I don't want to feel...

His signals were both the same on 40 and 37 lower , When I was on 40 and we were talking I told him what was happening , he sounded great as I said before , and he was then worried that there was something wrong with his radio , I told him as far as what I could hear he was loud and proud and...

He was in Texas and I'm in So.Cal.

That's correct . Never head that before , he sounded great ! Just on two channels . A friend of mine said he heard his neighbor on his HF rig on two channels recently but also had no idea why , he said he could see this guy transmitting on two channels on the scope on his radio but only...

Was talking to a guy in DX land in his truck parked in Corpus Christie Texas today. (Rocky 388) Here's the thing , I heard him on both 37 and 40 lsb loud and proud on both frequencies ! He was on 40 lsb , I talked to him for a few minutes and told him I could hear him on both freqs , he said...

Just getting older (by His graces) and rolling with the changes the best I can . Thank you gentleman for your input . Reminds me of Microsoft in a way , they stop making security updates for older models so your hands are tied to buy there new software . Discontinue this and discontinue that and...

I had dropped out of the hobby for about 8 years or so and came back a few years ago . I knew back then that MOSFETS were the growing trend and they seemed a lot cheaper to use and I've still been trying to shake hands with them ever since ? (to have a better understanding of them) I was old...

Your absolutely right about that Nomad , Wow ! I haven't heard anything from her since her dad passed. And I'm sure your right about that old list Charlie passed my way. I know when he had his warehouse Cheri and her husband were working for him. His last years he was working out of his house...

This was about 8 months before Charlie passed Jeff , They also called him The Candy Man , Why ? Charlie had been clean and sober for over 20 years and when he went to meetings he would toss candy at people. I had met him there way before I knew he was a distributor in this business. He had the...

This post is not that old to me (I've experienced the experience you could say) the other post was locked down. I know what it's like to lose radio equipment and I don't care how good of a radio guru they are, you don't take good honest paying and returning customers like that . This ain't my...

Rolled the dice and nabbed it for 50.00 shipped . Looks all original to me . On high 12 watts in on SSB 125 pep watts all day , low side about 70 . very clean audio on SSB (none of that snap crackle pop crap from class C ) Seems to like 1 watt on AM with about 16 watts pep swing about 30 DK from...

(In the cleanest of ways) weather it's 100 watts and you would need 400 watts for another S Unit ................It would seem to me that more power is more power ? weather it's a quarter of a S unit or even 1/2 of a S unit more , might that little extra be helpful all the same ? You would...

Thanks to all who have participated in this thread . (I can't believe I read the whole thing !) Copy on the noise floors on these radios , no big deal to me with the Noise Reduction set at 2 or 3. (Hell ! They make people sound great without the hash and trash) Weather they have the big...
