I have not been here that long but for what it's worth. I wanted to get my Tech. license. I have been around the 11 meters since 1973. But lately since i have seen more crying and whining ?? Thank you but no thanks. I figure if i see some Ham operators acting like this ?? Then i could only...
Well boys we got more on the way. We are expecting to start late tonight with snow fall into tomorrow and early Tuesday morning. Snow expected to 6"-10" and another possible storm to dump snow on next Friday. And these winter storms are moving east to north east. Please i am sorry if i sent a...
You should be fine running the RF power at 0900 or a little more. That should still give you the power with the modulation swing. I need to buy a 70 amp power supply so i can run my 2970n2 in the house.
I am a trucker and you do want that fuse as close to the battery as you can get it. That way if the positive wire does short out against metal around the battery box, the wire will burn to the fuse and not burn down your truck. I also ran a fuse ( geez can't remember the amps ) oh maybe a 15 amp...
I myself would like to personally give you a big TEXAS size THANK YOU for what you are doing for those kids. I live around Springfield Mo. maybe some day i might take a trip down to OK and take in a tour of the library. Thank you againg for everything you and everyone else is doing to keep kids...

Nice set up you have there. I had quite a few older 2950's and a few of the dx models. all were great radios IMO. I ran a 2970 non dx in a semi truck hooked to the battery and did a good job considering some techs would say not suitable for a semi truck. I have a slip seat set up for my RCI...
They sell the 50 amp glass fuse and the holder (case) at your local car/audio store. As Quoted from CB Mag. they are 50 amp fuse and my RCI-2970n2 comes with the 50 amp glass fuse and case.
I had a 98vhp and i am rackin my brain trying to remember i thought i ran a 50 amp fuse. Come to think of it should be the same fuse uesd on the RCI-2970n2
You can get these type of fuses at your local car/audio shop.
You are right on that Booty. A few times i had to stop and buy a 18' coax at the truck stop and the pl259's we not solder right. Now i carry a brand new coax made the right way with me. In case of an emergency on the road.
Go get a Ham Operator's hand book on getting your license. This way you can understand the operation of Icom radio.
Or give Sparky a call He is one of the CB shops they talk about here.
Some people around the Monterey Bay and up in San Francisco love to eat squid. I was born in Monterey Ca. in '59 and my older brother loves it. Me i'm a little smarter then that. LOL Me i don't like it. I do believe they call it Calamari

Thank GOD for the way i was raised. Sorry buddy but i was taught to respect the people i meet. If i was trolled on oh well. If a nwby came on here and asked a question ( and was a troll ) or whatever you call it. I will answer with the up most respect...
Did it occur to you that this being his first time here to the forum he might have been nervous and did not really know how to break the ice ???????
