    2M only or Dual Band ???

    I have had better luck with dual banders for one reason. If you sell one you get more money back % wise.

    My Grant XL's have given me the same impression. I think my Kenwood TS 430 had much better rx than my Icom. At least to the point that I could notice it on the same antenna. Too bad it's so darn big for a truck.

    For a new or used DC to Daylight all mode mobile under 1K? I just sold my 706MKIIG and really liked it. Looking to replace it with something else. I used it in the truck for SWL and two way with the rotten antenna restrictions a truck has. Maybe string a wire for 20M digital when parked...

    Frequency question

    The pic I posted shows alot of slide. The channel on the rig is 27.205, the frequency shown on the PDC 256 is .195. The Grant XL has about 16kz of slide. The big knob helps alot with fine tuning. The PDC 256 is hooked into the rig (not in the coax) to show both RX and TX, not like the 356 on...

    ssb etique on 11 meters

    Sorry there is no such thing as "off frequency". If there was, you would not have a clarifier. How can you tell if you have a CB? I have run rigs with nine digit displays and have never found anyone "off Frequency". Don't let being "Channel" locked fool you

    SSB Radio

    The exports are mostly about RF output and mod. I've had a few of them and for CB SSB the Cobra 148 and Grant XL ( same thing) is hard to beat. Not RF or mod monsters but great RX. A ton of easy modifications and easy to find. If you want better, get an HF rig.

    built a 2m 4 element cubical quad... not sure if it's working correctly

    Start with the most simple things. Is the antenna pointed in the same direction as the rotor indicates? Also test using the same transmitter. Variables should be eliminated for a valid test. Please post the construction of the antenna. Guys on here way smarter than me could then maybe...
