Ok. He sent me a video of my unit. 5w dk on his bird showed 100w amp dk. 8w dk and amp on showed 200w amp dk.
Mentioned my meter might be off. I'm thinking this darn A99 that doesn't like power since day one is the issue. I have ferrite beads just outside the shack wall and a choke up top by...
So same way I made my gmrs repeater back in 2015. 2x GM300. I used the Idom IV controller at the time. The STM-32 is for doing the conversion to digital. Neat.
I've paid $60 on avg with 2 different techs for tune up and alignment. Usually with shipping back to me is like a total of $85. Shipping out is like $20.
And then. I bought 2 acres in AZ. (y)
By Sun Valley area. Yes real county road frontage and power lines.
Perc test in about 2 weeks.
NC property to retire to, AZ to retreat from that.
County allows containers dropped or shed under 200 sq ft with no permitting.
Or just get a Perc and...
Update.
Just sent today back for a look. The 2w dk getting a 250w dk on AM was really eating at me. SSB seemed to have swung just fine.
Wondering if AM section needs a "tune" as well. My SWR was wacky. Could have been RF harmonics playing hell with the SWR. Doesn't explain the high DK.
He...
Now mind you about 2 months ago I reported on here that my fan isn't kicking on with my straight 4 pill and the PM100.
Still isn't. I emailed PowerMax then, and got no response to the email. Could have been corona related. I dunno. I'm still using. I don't like the fact the fan has never ever...
No. He's posting videos of builds again.
Sending mine back for a check of the high AM dk issue. With 2w on radio I was getting like 250w amp dk. Way to high, in my opinion. SSB seems to be working fine. Has AB bias put in for SSB.
I don't know how amps work so I don't know is there is such...
They come in 10' for the 1 1/4" diameter. I don't know if they sell it in 5'.
keep in mind the A99 u bolts for mounting only go to I think to 1 1/2". So keep that in mind. I used 2 of the top rails. But use like 4 wall brackets and bolted to my house wall.
Saw this online this morning. Looks like 4 tubes glowing in one of the pics. Not sure if just CB or HF. Thought it was cool. Says Lafayette on the meter and Japan.
Been running the 6666 for about a year now. I just did the "mod" and leave in freq mode. I don't do channels as some mentioned it holds the freq and settings (like the 5555) and can get confusing as you may think your on a certain freq but actually are on another.
My NB got stuck on once and I...
The bracket is stainless. It's the contact of 4 self tapping SS screws that I'm trying to improve to the body. And of course I checked behind the assembly and Ford used double metal. And the screws don't penetrate the second layer of inner metal structure. :(
other option is go with some...
