    You don't have to run an amp with the 959 if you don't want to. If you need a little more power, the RM Italy KL203P is a great little mobile amp. Just run only 1 to 2 watts from your radio into the amp using the RF power knob.

    Put the money into the antenna FIRST!

    But are they setup properly? Mo Powa isn't worth a #### without a proper antenna system. An improperly setup antenna system combined with Mo Powa can lead to wasted money and maybe letting the smoke out of your radio/amp.

    With a tool. As soon as it gets here. And when some warmer weather is available.
    I'll post pics. Maybe next month. It's still horribly cold here up North.
    I'll try to tune-up a Predator 10K.
