No they were using Yaesu's like the FT-2000. Sorry don't remember the model. The drift was on AM and not single side band.These were people that I had been to their house and knew well. Both were Extra class hams. I actually have a tape recording of it.

.1 of a kilocycle is nothing to lose sleep over. A lot of ham's and certainly most CB operators are off frequency to some extent. This can be effected by factors including input voltage and the temperature of the radio on both the receive and transmit. At this point it become like trying to...

Okay the radio has been moded, tweaked and installed. There is a high and low wattage adjustment. I set the low to dead key 1 watt and the high to dead key 8 watts. It's swinging about 12 watts with the power adjustment all the way down. I adjusted the AMANL slightly, turned the AM modulation...

I really appreciate you guys' feedback. I've been hearing the "you'll overmoduate if you clip the audio limiter" since I got into CB and later ham when I was 11 years old back in 1988. However I have generally not found this to be the case. Over modulation/muffled/distorted audio in my...

Thanks I did some research and it says that you can clip D41to open the modulation. That is usually not a good idea on these type of radios as they will lose their clean sound, but it might get that swing where I want it. If I get it I might try just to see or if there is a modulation VR I might...

I'm seriously looking to get this radio, but I'm worried about it's dead key and forward swing on AM. I run a Texas Star DX 350 and it likes a dead key under a watt. Is there a way to get the dead key on the President Lincoln II at or under 1 watt and to have it swing 15 plus watts? Anyone know...
