    TYT TH-UV3R Dual Band Micro HT Review

    So looking at your pics it looks like the speaker mic is a 3 pin? Is there a pin out anywhere?

    Is there a way to use these as a generic (non-D*) repeater controller?

    Who made that tiny 2 meter mobile?

    I bet I could even slip one of those in the wife's car.

    D710 clock/time incorrect

    So ever since we switched to daylight savings time, the clock on my Kenwood D710 is an hour behind. I have tried setting the clock correct but apparently the GPS time info overrides the manual settings. My UTC offset is correct. Is there a setting to make this right? Or should I just move...

    FTM-350R vs TM-D710A: Which Should I Get?

    I went with the 710 primarily because of the exposed TNC and the digipeater built in. As far as the connecting cables, I picked up a lan cable I had laying around and used that to connect to the head. It hasn't picked up any interference that I can hear. The included Kenwood filters were a...

    Who wants to host an Echolink Net?

    I'd just install the program on your PC and use your PC mic and speakers. Works well for me (and it's the only way for me since there's no node-linked repeater next to me).

    Dipole Leg Direction

    Sorry, it's a Kenwood AT-200. But those LDG baluns would still work very well with it. I've already got plenty of 450 ladder line too. Really just need to get the appropriate length of wire for the legs.

    Dipole Leg Direction

    I'm using an AT-200. I can reconsider my antenna design. I've gone outside with my measuring tape and realize I have a crap ton more space than I had thought. I'd still have to have the legs off kilter but I can do a 1/2 wave 160M if I want to. I'm limited on how high I can get, but I can...

    Dipole Leg Direction

    Makes sense to me. I'm going to get some wire and make me an antenna this weekend. As long as it's not blizzarding I should be able to get it up. Thanks.

    Dipole Leg Direction

    Yes, that's what I'm going to do. I just thought someone might have some insight to this particular question of leg direction in any nonspecific installation. I'm not looking to reinvent the wheel so any head start is good in my book.

    Dipole Leg Direction

    I'm looking to place a G5RV with the center about 35' high (so the ladder feed point will be near the ground), and the ends sloping to a 10' termination. I will have some structures nearby but I can't get away from that. I guess I'm asking from a perfect free space perspective. I'd like...

    Dipole Leg Direction

    I'd like some clarification on the leg direction of dipoles. I may need to erect a dipole with the legs going in different directions, IE one leg going south and one leg going east (and somewhat sloping ala inverted V). To my understanding that is OK as long as I keep 90 degrees between the...

    Zetron Model 48

    I can try it out - no harm trying. I suppose putty would work if anything will. Sent from my YP-G1 using Tapatalk

    Zetron Model 48

    I took posession of a 70cm repeater box that has been sitting in the garage of the local club for some time. It looks like the controller is a Zetron Model 48 (running a couple of GM300's). I've been to repeater builder and got some manuals but I'm trying to find the terminal software so I can...
