That receive is useless to folks unable to do their own antenna work as I'm sure you noticed.

It's always the guys who think that their stud is better than the one that Mark told them to install that seem to have all the problems with receive.Or the guys who insist on using their 40 inch antenna extension which Mark told them not to use that seem to have the biggest problem.. in other words it's the guys who failed to follow instructions that always have the problems.. it's always the guys with the least amount of antenna knowledge that have the problem.. I'm not sure if you noticed but
Neverready doesn't seem to have those problems but then again he has a better grasp of how to do antenna work.Last edited: Nov 3, 2016

If I had a hundred Icom 7000 radios and passed them out at a truck stop to the average truck driver they would all tell me that radio is a piece of junk because it doesn't have Channel 19. Just because it's unanimous doesn't make it so. The Icom 7000 is an excellent radio if you know how to use it and you know how to set it up and do your own antenna work.
The same goes for those 5 radios. If they were installed in my personal vehicle they would work just fine.. -
I have a 29 from early 2000's and a chrome one i bought b4 my dad passed..I was gonna set it up in his garage to #### chat to his buddys but he passed and i never got it to him...So sence then i had it to dtb in carlisle and he matched it to a midnight 250..Nice lil radio but im not so sure on dtb's skill with amps..That was ages ago..Ill never let dtb near my stuff..wolverine11 Thanks this. -

1st off rabbi..........I have 2 of marks studs..I see the same thing when compareing to the wilson...I have the 40" Mount and saw no diff using a door mount and a 5 ft ant(all i have at the moment) and saw no diff...I tried my 22" shafted,18" shaft and a 6 or 9" which ever it is i have....I didnt gain..You insist on the dipole yet marks blew that off and said no and you said he is the best antenna man..Marks tells me to use a 17" shaft on my predator but i dont remember the results cause i have tried all the different combos i can try with what i own..If memory is correct another fella on here said the 40" tall mount is one of the best he has seen...Not gonna use his name incase he said it to me privately..
Im not dissing anyone but you give confuseing info sometimes..
LOL might be easier if i ask my boss to buy a moose bumper and i can mount an ant on it..Last edited: Nov 3, 2016
