There is something to be said for my unfocused, multi faceted life style I lead. When radio is down I jump on something else to humor me. When I took my van to Harbor Freight yesterday to pick up a carport my DX 979 was scary quite so now I have to check that out and see if it was the radio or just conditions.:eek:
 
A little bit happening this morning, contact with NW Arizona through the noise and still a little active. Hopefully it'll get better or at least stick around.

I said yesterday my DX979 was scary quite, well checked it out today on the bench and there seems to be no receive or very slight receive, any suggestions where to start looking? I already tried a different mic and it does have talk back, but I have noticed the Squelch knob seems to keep turning around with out stopping. And all the switches are in the proper place !
 
I called out announcing bbq but nobody got back to me!!! LOL Currently trying to handle the meat sweats!!!
I stopped by Texas and picked up some of the guys. I think we took a wrong turn in Albuquerque. We should be there by midnight, hope you don't have to work tomorrow......

Just been hearing Florida a bit, and Oklahoma earlier up until now. Fading in and out pretty bad. Some chatter earlier on 38, but of course the loudest was a clown. Late at night I have been hearing Northern California, Oregon and Washington here in Arizona, but it has been just as hit or miss as the rest.
