    Update from earlier post

    UNIDEN PC68XL - the good, the bad, & the ugly!

    My last motorhome needed a good place to mount the antenna, which in my case was a NGP due to fiberglass body. I had been seeing just about every 18 wheeler had what I wanted, mounted up on the side of the sleeper. I found what I needed from Firestik, it's called a M-2 mount and I used a 4'...

    Decent reasonably price power/swr meter?

    Times two on 222DBFL suggestion about R/Shack meters. I have the older larger watt/swr meter which is very accurate and makes a nice addition. I think it is a 21-121 or 21-151 model, often found on E-Bay. JMHO 555

    Cobra 4 pin to Uniden 5 pin Adapter

    Just curious if anyone has used any Workman mic adapters, and does the adapter just plug into radio, and rewire the mic cord end only ? Did you use Astatic diagram or what ? I've got a amplified D-104 and want to put it on a MB8719 Washington. On another note, will the Mic gain + D-104 be too...

    What size are you running as well as what's your preference, switching or non switching ? Running a small gl 100, probably 60/70 amps tops out, on a good dead key for a few, the relays have a small chatter with the present 8 amp Pyramid. Let's hear your thought's as to what brand and size I...
