Thank you for the insight, Jeff!

There inlies the problem with capitulating to the media, this may slow down the witch hunt, but now they have "flinched" and appear as if kowtowing!

While it is unfortunate they've "caved in", it may slow down the "assault weapons ban (against semi-autos)" the left wants so badly to come about. Now that's just sad, they could produce some bolt action unit and keep the rifle lineup, but at this point it feels like they are doing damage...

If bad weather is around I usually disconnect the coaxial feedline entirely and push it through my window passthrough (almost outside but still reachable) so I don't have any direct hit concerns, that and my 8 foot ground rod is attached to the house ground connection at my utility box...

standing tall n' proud! "Romper Room" is greater than "Camper crew", lmao.

Then the black hats must really enjoy the privilege of not giving a darn when and where they operate, lol. (j/k) But in all seriousness, congratulations to fogdog!

Almost looks like a Cobra 25, and a good halloween prop!

I use a Sirio New Tornado 27 (5/8 Vert. comes w/ GPK) it is a budget antenna @ $110, don't know if it has been mentioned here yet but after 1 year the only issue i've had is the very highest element sliding down, a little threadlocker fixed that issue! Power handling ratings of this antenna...

Demonstrate your claim, it's that simple. Prove it, you show me how a failed regulator causes driver & final to "detonate" due to "battery voltage". *(I did it for you) Bypassing fuses and removing reverse polarity protection diodes won't help in preventing catastrophic failures. Let's all...

In Cobra 148 GTL/Grant XL radios, they simply bypass the regulator using the mode select switch, feeding the collectors "supply voltage" while switched in a SSB mode. I cannot say about the PNP failure, but a Galaxy DX66V isn't going to key 45-50 Watts with 14 Volts at the collectors, that...

TinyCAD Brought to you by: beischer, don_lucas, mattpyne, mlangezaal {These guys helped produce TinyCAD} Radioman, not to be rude but Sourceforge is simply the hosting service/software repository; it's the one all of us so called "software jockeys" used before Github came onto the scene...

It's all gravy. We're all piloting a vessel made of star dust anyway, life is too short for QRP.

Seriously though everyone on the lower east coast of the United States stay prepared and perhaps pray for (or call them) so that people will be prepared for the incoming storm; not everyone has the wherewithal to get ready. Stay safe, 73 from the west coast of the sand pile!

I see what you did there! LOL

Yes "plastic" is so much lighter to carry around! :D The audio is probably great, I'm sure (like D.I.) it's close to MMM, the mod I like to play with can get people there also, even the silly "extreme modulation" (300%) is possible. If I had the money I would have just bought a board, but the...

Radio's output. I use an amplifier with all my "AM Regulator" modified rigs, but I run small amps and 2 Watts "swinging 12" presents no problem. I have used a Mean Well supply up to 28 Volts, but I really don't need it.

Yes, the "Open Asymmetry Project" borrows somethings from the Cobra 148 GTL. I've found documents dating to 1971 with this transistor arrangement, I'm sure older examples exist in written history. "Poor man's mauldulator", I like that! (it requires diligence though) You really have to know what...

100%! I bought an Alesis 3630 Compressor/Limiter for $50 & I paid about $50 for the Behringer Sonic Exciter SX3040 from a friend. The Neewer NW-800 microphone is super cheap and sounds great for the price IMHO, they can be had for $20-$35 depends if you opt for the phantom power supply. Pro...

10-4 Brother, nobody here is doing anything new! (I mean that kindly) Jose should make a public apology for being a thief c*nt, I don't care how old the solid state modulator is! His copying of the PCB and then selling them on eBay is a "pirate's tale" if I ever heard one. You said 24 Volts...

I think the Asymod guy made a "new" revision or updated clone of the MMM board, as you know the first incarnation required +/- voltage rails from an external supply. Sonar, I found two videos demonstrating Asymod that aren't from the "support channel". One had a slightly flawed demonstration...
