    Kenwood TM-V71A

    I want one and plan to get one soon. But one thing I read was you have to buy the relocation kit separate and it's $$$ whereas the Yaesu includes them with the radio. :glare:

    painting an I max 2k

    I painted my Imax 2000 semi gloss black and it still works good. Only thing I read was not to paint it a metallic color.

    It doesn't allways take a whole lot of power!

    Good to hear you were able to hold a conversation on low power. I have a 100 watt rig that doesn't seem to get out on 38 LSB....but it might be due to the antenna.

    Yaesu FT-857/897 AM operation.

    Which DSP filter? It has one for CW, one for noise reduction, one for notch and one for bandpass. Where's the pass band tuning offset? I have the manual but didn't see it. IF shift, I'll check. Thanks

    Whats so wonderful about these things?

    Great if you want to keep your radio keyed down and play one of the never ending melodies. May result in a few folks paying you a visit in a not so nice way. I can't see spending $200 for that, but to each his own. It appears these came out back in 1980. The VC-100 and VC-200 "Voice...

    Yaesu FT-857/897 AM operation.

    My Yaesu FT 857's receive on AM sounds muffled, yet transmits fine on AM. Does anyone know why and what the fix is for it? Thanks.

    Interesting Ebay item

    If that's the case, then I guess I made out like a bandit, because I sold one like it, not as good looking, for $185, on eBay.

    Stryker SR-89MC

    Has anyone ran one of these yet? I don't see much in terms of testimonials on them and I was considering getting one for my Toyota Tacoma since it lacks any room to put a larger chassis CB in. Thanks in advance.

    CB or Export?

    For what you are wanting to do, the Magnum 257 will be your best bet....since it does 10 and 11 meter, is stable on SSB, good audio on AM and doesn't have the kiddie trucker toys aka echo and roger beep. The rest of the radios you mentioned won't fulfill your desire.
  16. Turbo T

    Seriously?

    So I guess these are "intended" for scientists or doctors only.....but you can buy them off of a CB amp website...lol! But hey, maybe this would get my number called on "tha bowl" :w00t:

    FCC at the tolls and scales

    Or they're tired of truckers buying 10 meter export radios who ask Bubba at the truck stop to "peak an' tune this heah radio....make 'er loud an' proud"....in which Bubba interprets this as "let's cut thot thar limit'r an' crank tham thar pots up....so now you have a radio so loud that it bleeds...

    Cobra 29 Roger beep off button

    Some roger beeps such as the 5 tone by Workman have an orange wire that when grounded, turns off the beep, yet allows the transmission thru because if you killed the 12 VDC source, you'd not be able to transmit. Other beep boards, such as the Workman single beep, don't have this function, but I...
