    top secret government plan

    it is now revealed that the US government has found the elusive "sleep frequency" and is building amplifiers that will knock people out. an unnamed FCC spokesman is quoted as saying "Well we figured that if the "freebanders" are sleeping they won't be on the air and the rest of the 27Mhz...

    A few comments, amateur radio vs CB

    yeah thats what i meant..... the "harness" is essentially a "Y" with a single straight 50ohm coax from the common point long enough to go across my roof down the side of the house through the wall and to the 225RD <i believe in the 80-85 foot range although i didnt measure ...i ran it where...

    Hams on CB

    theres a small group of hams near me <i'm one of them>that run quite a bit of 11M we are there for a number of different reasons including because of our old friends who are still there who dont have ham licenses for whatever reason its ALOT more informal than ham bands....more like we're...

    A few comments, amateur radio vs CB

    now on a "set" of antennas be they co-phased francis amazers for 11M on a big truck or my stacked 2M halos length of the 75 ohm coax in your "co-phase harness" DOES matter......correct??? when i put up my halos i had made each "leg" of my harness an odd multiple of 1/4 wave in my particular...

    Crash course in SSB?

    steve.... where are you at in PA??? i'm in reading and we have a pretty good group of operators here that would be happy to give you a hand on 11M SSB if you are close enough.... most of us are hams and spend most of our time on the ham bands so we dont really have a set frequency for CB...

    grundig S350

    yup i read all the reviews on rat shack for it along with all the amazon reviews and the E-ham reviews...... i kinda wanted to make sure there wasnt another radio i somehow missed that my 100 bucks or so would be better spent on... i knew about the eton one chop...thanx for the heads up tho...

    NOW CB AMPS ON EBAY

    just to make it perfectly clear....... not ALL hams are that "whiney" I'm a ham and i OWN a couple CB amplifiers that i use on 11M MOST hams i know could care less about people running power etc on 11M but as the saying goes there is a few bad apples in every bunch

    FT101E 11m pos.

    cut <or unsolder> the BROWN wire on the bandswitch to make the 101 Xmit in ALL bandswitch positions..... warning this may be illegal where you live etc etc and might piss off some hams who have nothing better to do <this said by a ham>

    D&A Raider info ????

    you sure theyre 6LQ6s??? only reason i ask is because ive had 5 of them and every one was 6JG6 or equivalent.. the LQ is a different animal altogether... with the JG6s or the like typical is key 75 ish (+/- 25> and swing 175ish again + or - theres a good "tube amp primer" on this site...

    tempo one vs. siltronics 1011D

    having owned BOTH of these radios its a hard call to be honest... the tempo WILL need to be modified for 11M the siltronix will too but thats just resoldering one wire and retuning one trimmer if you want the "freeband" areas on the 10M part of the switch instead of 10M the tempo will need a...

    QRZ gets a Wakeup Call

    what everyone is trying to explain is that there is NO " type acceptance" when it comes to HAMs............ if i want to i can modify my toaster to transmit on 10M and it is "legal" to both posess AND use on the amature bands.... i could even sell my toatser to a fellow ham for him to...
