Maybe its time for me to look into a new radio..... Its just hard to find one that i like that will do all of the same things my 95T does, and no i dont want a 2950. Just something aesthetically about the radio that i dont like.

ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS?!??!?! Hey Shock maybe ill swap radios with my buddy i just bought the 979 for that night we tested it, did it seem to drive the amp well? It seemed to pull my alt down like a s.o.b so i guess it was crankin out some horsepower. And when i was using it at home i felt a decent amount of heat at the base of the whip. Not too hot to touch, but was definitely warmer than it was outside haha.

The only other thing that i really need is a radio that will get on 27.555, (which with minor modification the DX979 will do) and has a six digit frequency counter (which i can get that will plug into the back of the radio) which i need only minor modification to do so.
