    FS: Cobra 29LTD Classic Philippines June 1992

    Received the radio a few days ago, just got a chance to open it up and check it out. Radio was better than described, it is beautiful. First Cobra 29 I've owned, I can see the appeal now. I'm never letting this one go. Thanks again for the radio, 10/10 would buy from you again.

    Ameritron AL-80B amplifier ?

    New? I've never had a problem when I was running my AL-811 on my Palstar AT-500, and now I'm running a AL-80B (transformer wired for half power) through it. I guess the natural progression would be a AT2K or AT2KD, which will handle the AL-80B with plenty of headroom. Used, you have plenty of...

    Halloween friendly reminder

    Just need to change the channel display now. Can't stand the piercing blue display on my 979 at night, have to keep it turned way way down, but the stupid TX/RX light is still blue on RX and doesn't dim. Wonder how hard it would be to swap the channel display to green, meter light to a...

    Palomar Mini Magnum - 1xSD1446 Worth buying?

    Hrm, good advice all around. I have other boxes, a couple RM Italys and the gamut of Texas Stars from a Mod V to a Sweet 16, but I thought this might be neat for a small knock around kicker. We'll see then.

    Palomar Mini Magnum - 1xSD1446 Worth buying?

    Have a line on what the seller claims to be a clean "Palomar Mini Magnum" with a SD1446. All I have is a picture of the inside, which looks very clean and unmolested. He says on a wattmeter, it goes to 10W when he keys it, then the tapers off to zero. Worth buying for $40? There aren't a...

    Radios and equipment for sale

    What are you asking for the 2950? Is it the older 2950DX green on black display, or the current 2950CD that looks like a christmas tree?

    Whose Using RG400 and a Mini Butane Torch

    Skip the solder, unless it's for the center pin. Crimp type connectors are awesome!

    Best low-end watt/VSWR meter you would suggest

    This and the equivalent Bird model need to have the indicated value on the meter multiplied by a factor below 100MHz. In this case, it's +30% at 27MHz. So if you're taking 100W on the meter, your actual value is 130W. A bit inconvenient. More suited for VHF and above use, where it's 1:1

    Galaxy DX 979 YES or NO???

    I run a 979 in the mobile currently, and did about 7 years ago too. I've got a bunch of other more powerful, fancier radios, but there's something about a nice, simple radio.
