I
m new to forums and computer type stuff. Too technical for me. Id rather either be on the radio or working on one or some other type electronic experiments. I run a galaxy dx959 with a d104 silver eagle as my base with a little Inline help. I have a Navajo trc433 with a regular d104 for my front porch radio. An old cobra 29xlr that Is my experimental radio for different Ideas. The cobra has a homemade power mic I built out of a 24oz mountain dew can and galaxy power mic board, and a superstar element. Hopefully I can figure out how to post some pictures of some of the stupid stuff I build after I get a digital camera. Hope I can learn more about radios, and related stuff from the site and In return maybe help someone else here.
