Just a heads up from my own mistakes....
If you ever go and peak your RX chain and if you touched L1 or L2, you almost certainly just buggered up you cross-channel rejection.
If you hear stations 5 channels away or more, and even worse when the NB/ANL is on or off, thats why.

This is definite on the 858 boards.

...of course if you used a rf volt meter and a scope its probably ok, I'm talking the "by ear" way.

  • @ Geoexplorer69:
    Coax question. I just put up a new Sirio monsoon base antenna with 100’ of rg8u coax testing with myMFJ antenna analyzer shows 1.4 swr at 26.965mhz and a 1.1 at 27.405 mhz . When I checked the ohms it’s steady a 30 ohms across the entire bandwidth.
  • @ Geoexplorer69:
    Is 30 ohms worth worrying about in a 100’ run of rg8u ?
