as long as it's tastefully done with out interfering with amature,military or emergency communications i don't think the FCC even wants to bother with freebanders. most of the time above 40 and below 1 you won't really hear anyone unless DX is rolling. most guys you hear on the freebands conduct...
seems to be in the ball park with a 1 to 2 s unit gain. i have a guy here in maryland that has a 6 element Gizmotchy and a Imax 2000 and about 2s units of gain is what i see from him. he's about 45 air miles from me on the Imax i get about 2S units and 4 on the Gizmotchy to my Imax. i know he...
well i think if more cbers could read & count with out taking off there shoes then they could also appreciate the acomplishment of obtaining a AMATRURE RADIO OPERATORS LICENSE. amature radio intails a little more then propping up some 8 element beam against sum small trailer and running some...
If SSB is what you talk most of the time the 2995dx would be the best buy. no need for an external amp to talk around the world with just using an antron 99 the 150 watts that radio produces smokes. if you get the 2995dx keep it out of the hands of the radio molesters and there cb i tricked you...
i thought i was the only one that has a A99 that works better then an Imax. whats up with that Marconi i know you must have an explination with all the antenna testing you do. mine are 20' apart both have the feed point at the same height 38' both have 96' of belden 213 coax. i don't live in a...
i've used a Galaxy 95T on ten meters with great reports on the audio just last weekend during some band openings. with out a doubt galaxies have great audio on SSB & AM. true they are a little drifty and don't have VFO tuning a little aukward to tune to freqs like 28.4000 but they do hold there...
with out a doubt the 2510's are rock solid 10 meter radios ultra stable the best receive and with a 575 or road devil mic fantastic ssb audio. they are still to be had in pretty good shape on QRZ.com's swap meet section iv'e bought 2 off of there in the last 3 months also you'll find 2600's...
i have both as well and all though i see know real difference in performance with local talk, the IMAX 2000 knocks the sox off the maco for ME in Dx land. i have made more contacts over more miles with the Imax then the maco could even think about. also i can run the Imax on 10 meters. the Imax...
with out a doubt the 696fd-1 is a great radio. great performer on SSB and a pretty good talker on AM. i like it a whole lot better then my cobra 148F. love the 6 digit freq counter it's great to be able to unlock the clarifier to freeband into freqs like 27.5700 usb for that int. dx. i used my...
how does it work for you compaired to any other antennas you have had. i know of a couple guys that have run the stargunn beam style antennas and claim they work as good as Al Capones and bad boys they have had. what did you have before for an antenna. seems every application is different. i...

has anybody that uses the Gizmotchy style or Jogunn style star series antenna beam with the slanted radials had the standard yagi cross style shooting star or moonrakers to compair performance with. i know a guy running the gizmotchy 4 element and another guy using a Maco Shooting Star and is...
both radios are great performers you won't go wrong buying either. but to answer your question in my opinion drawn on my experiance with having both radios grab yourself a 2950 or 2950dx. don't fall for any of these trick mods they try to sell you. just get it converted to work on 11 meters and...
with out doubt the 2950DX is better. i run a 2950DX with a Astatic 575 mic for 10 meters when it opens up and never got bad report. have talked all over the world with it from base or mobile. had the other two and both were drifty till warm up and not quite as stable on frequency after. seems...
the 10k should be the best way to go. different shaft & stinger lengths to customize to your application. and talk about being broad banded i have found no other as broad banded as the 10K the set up i use on one of my cars i can run 11 & 10 meters with. swrs are below 1.5 from 26.915 thru...
