Yes and yes.

The Stern setting has a sub menu - High pitched Eric, Beetlejiuce or Jeff the drunk. The last two add automatic profanity and are only recommended for 75 meter operation. It's a versatile mic for sure. :whistle:

The EU CB crowd is most likely their primary market.. They are permitted to legally use FM. I'm sure they want to sell to US CB'er as well, hence AM. As a ham I have no use for a 10/12 meter AM/FM radio.

Yes, they had a prototype at the Tokyo Ham Show this year...They demo'd it by working a DXpedition while making popcorn. A hams dream rig.

I'm also using a dipole. Band is terrible today. I made contacts with stations in French Guyana. Dominica and Paraguay that was about it.

I think 10 is shutting down for the day. Good day though with 65 contacts, 20 US states and 4 DX countries. Total operating time is about 4 hours. Who said 10 was dead? (y)

Now propagation has shifted for me from the northeast. I've been using N3FJP's contact long and suite of contest logs for many years and I'm using his 10 meter contest log today. I was just spinning the dial and answered a contest CQ from none other than N3FJP!

SSB and CW for the contest. I'm running phone and have about 40 contacts logged so far including Argentina, Chile and Mexico. None were easy contacts!

It's slow going but I'm making a contact about every minute or so. I've got a pipeline to GA but also worked AZ, CA, FL, MS and a few other southern states. Guatemala was heard above 28. 500 for a few minutes but I just couldn't be heard. WD8T listening..

Nice!

It also seems the FCC gives them all ample warnings yet they continue. Just stupid.

Ya think? lol http://www.worldwidedx.com/threads/iglesia-el-remanente-fraternidad-elim-inc-and-belarmino-lara-arleta-ca.208993/

For anyone who doesn't already know. The ARRL 10 meter contest is this weekend. It will be interesting to see a band everyone thinks is dead come to life for the weekend (hopefully). I'm not to going to compete by I will get in there and make some contacts and burn the dust off those 572B's...

No it will not. If you read the information in the link I posted above you wil understand why you just can't hook up line audio from the mixer or other rack device directly the mic jack of an hf radio. That gear isn't made to interface directly with hf radios. You have to have an a circuit...

Yea, he could have handled that a little better.

You missed a very important componant - the isolation transformer between the mixer and radio. You can't just feed line audio from the mixer to an hf radios mic jack. That's whay Brett mentioned the iBox in his first post. read here -> http://www.w2ihy.com/ibox.html

Tech class licenses have only CW privileges from 7.025 -7.125, no phone on the 40m band. General and up have access to the freq you mentioned. Tech class have hf phone privileges on 10m only.

Did you try any of the Kenwood Service centers? http://www.avsl.net/

If I learned anything in Navy boot camp it was never to volunteer ;)
