Does anyone know if these amps are still being manufactured? I have been in a number of ARSR4 radar sites that have been built in the last 5 years or so. These are long range search radars jointly us
I bought one of these a couple of years ago on the advice of a friend. I haven't had any problems, and it is RF quiet as far as I can tell. http://www.mobilityelectronics.com/ Good luck. Bruce WW1M _
Anyone have any experiences with the Elecraft transverters? I have a friend with a K2 that is interested. I can recommend the DEMI units; I have 2 of them and am happy with them, but the tight integr
I am heading out to do a little roving. For today, I will be heading north to Cheyenne, WY shortly for my first stop in DN71. Next will be a short jaunt across the Nebraska line to DN81. and home to
Once again, I am planning to rove during the contest. Unfortunately I have not had time to make any changes except that I now have CW working on all bands (except 222). Since I plan to attend the ham

The problem with the QST review is that after the comment about the multimode transciever the reviewer goes on to talk about repeater offsets, nonstandard splits, CTCSS encode/decode, and other FM st
Well...I will be out there...pressures on a number of fronts have kept me from getting Rover 3.0 together in time for the June contest. The 1296 aerial is ready but the radio is not. The 222 transver
I have a rotator, branded Channel Master, that is as Mike describes - 3 wire, motor in the control box that follows the rotator motor, etc. I strapped it to my chimney one June for a contest back in
