    What you did with your radio set up is an example of someone who knows what they are doing. Nice work bulldog!

    Charges like a cellphone and charger included. All voice commands. The voice will let you know from the start the battery level. Last over a week for me before charging is needed.

    gotcha....was looking at them on eBay...There's one that works with the Galaxy S3 phones New for $46 w/free shipping...may have to check into one.

    Just wondering on your cover's why you just didn't spray-paint your chrome ones with satin black paint instead of buying new ones?

    All you need to do is take some sand paper to the chrome, then spray some self-etching primer on it like I did my D 104's, then spray the black on....

    They also make a spray on rubber coating in flat black. I believe the company is called plasti-dip. It comes out very even with no runs. Also if the effect is not desired it peels off very very easily leaving no residue. Also has the nice texture like a cellphone. I have used it many times to re finish cobra 29 cases and also painted my trailer with it. Very durable with 2 coats.

    I've seen that stuff at Home Depot...never thought of using it on covers tho...may have to check it out, some of my covers need repainting anyway. Suppose to work good on antenna's too. Anyone thinking of painting a Predator 10K Black should consider using this stuff instead of regular spray paint.

    I may be wrong, maybe your right, but my thought about painting a metal antenna with the plasti kote would be it acting like an insulator affecting swr and efficiency of dispelling all of the rf. Who knows. Worth a shot.
