Actually, I'm thinking it's to avoid and defend against lawsuits. My guess is it's to make sure the driver is doing what s/he's supposed to, i.e....
Actually, no, they won't all be the same length after tuning for SWR, because SWR doesn't care about your radio. What it cares about is the...
Maybe I'm missing something, but my fleet safety person told us Bluetooth is fine. We're not allowed to use a handheld phone or press more than...
That makes no sense what so ever. Find a new employer.
Be careful with that Cascadia factory setup. Make sure you check SWR at least weekly. Some of the trucks in our fleet have had issues with...
Just another thought, there's a CB shop at the Petro off I285 in Atlanta at exit 12. I don't remember seeing anyone actually post about that...
I once talked to one driver who said he used that shop and said he trusted it. I know that's not a lot to go on.
The short answer is "yes".
I'm inclined to agree with the earlier possible diagnosis that you're checking your SWR under optimal conditions, such as being well away from any...
Don't know about length, but I can tell you that I remember reading that you need to use a different resistance coax for a dual set up than you...
I've seen that modified vice grip at truck stops, and I've also seen a made for antenna "C" style clamp. Tried to do one myself, but it didn't...
The only one I see listed on the Uniden website is the 505. Any info as to when the others are due out?
Okay, maybe I'm not understanding something correctly... SSB is actually two sidebands, both the upper and the lower? I'm not looking at a radio...
Okay, thanks for the info. Another question... When someone is talking about a radio with SSB, am I correct to assume that is single side band?...
So guys, help me understand one thing a little better. Is side band legal for non hams? Can I buy a radio with side band, talk on it, and not...
This is purely a speculative, uneducated guess... But I'm gonna go with bad coax or antenna. Check/change the coax, and check your SWR. Also,...
The problem is, most of the antennas that I see angled like that aren't standing straight up when these guys pass me like I'm standing still at...
That looks like a heck of a setup. What brand and length antennas are you running? And how did that spring hold up for you?
I've got an old Midland that works just fine, but was looking for something a bit newer with some bells and whistles on it. Picked myself up a...
My third question is, would this work if already using a co-phase setup? And finally (for now), does this eliminate the need for an electrical...
