Thanks for your help. I'm going thru the manual now, and then it's on to the Sinad articles Rob posted. It's stating to make sense. I'm going to concentrate my efforts on the receive side. I'm amazed at the difference in receive from one radio to another. Just following the factory manual with...

Thanks again, I'll get some reading done.

So all I will need is the two comtekk parts and a laptop. Are there any other option or is this the most efficient?

What a nice piece, it came, with the original binder still wrapped in plastic. It has all the connection in the back, I ordered the n style male to so-239. Turned it on an it did the self check and all works so far. I'm off work this week so I'll catch up on some reading. I remember a few years...

Thank you, you would think I know my female parts by know, enjoy your day.

The idea has been there from the 70"s when we had them "al-u-minium mirrors" I guy I worked with quit his job as a Teamster driver and opened up a radio shop, go figure, His was called the Rooster Booster and it came in two flavors, one was one 5 foot francis with an insulator in the bracket...

Thanks, so I would want a N type female to a UHF male? For give me but the end in the photo would be a N style male I'm assuming.

I finally found a brand new old stock 8656B, my question is I need a cable to go from the RF output to the radio. The connector on the back of the unit looks like a 4240-062 N style connector, the manual calls for a 50 ohm type N male (us mil-c-39012). Is there a premade cable that has this...

Welcome Don.

VR-12 ssb alc- 45 watts VR-13 am high power set 8-10 watts VR-11 am low power 1-3 watts There are two models, one with 1969 finals and one with ERF 2030. More important than pep is final bias, have someone with the proper equipment set up the radio.

I like to print.

I was "wowed" with 4 million miles in 31 years, how could you possibly have logged that?

Thank you 399!

I'm with the captain on this subject. Why is about price and reviews? You have to have the right tools. I believe what I see versus the interweb. You see videos of guys whistling and yelling into a mic to get a needle to move, really? I built one of Ken's dummy loads (K4EAA) and did a test with...

What type of truck? Out of all the antennas and antenna systems I have made, the Wilson 2000 is the best bang for the money. I run a 5000 that was given to me by a guy that retired. If you got a plastic truck with air suspension you got to get some metal under it or make a vertical dipole.

He was warned, told them to pound sand, gave up the equipment and then resumed. What did he think was going to happen?

Problem fixed, back connection of the test probe.

Thanks, I will try as soon as I get home and post some results.

Thanks Robb, I got the tone, I trying to figure out how to check the output of the generator.

I have a leader LAG audio generator, how do I go about checking it's output? When I inject the tone into the mic jack, it is there you can hear it and see it on the scope, and when I change the dial the tone changes, but how do I go about checking to see if the 1kHZ tone is in fact at 1kHZ. I...
