It's 145.25 and the call is K1JCL. It's always fun to operate 2 meter AM during some of the VHF contests. Drives the SSB guys crazy trying to tune you in. Pete, wa2cwa On Wed, 3 Nov 2004 22:31:49 -0600 Crawfish [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I believe K1JCR in CT has a 2m AM repeater on up there.

I think a good idea would be to try fair radio sales in OH. if you haven't allready found it when you read this msge here.They have a lot of military parts from various radios and i believe at reasonable prices.Think it's a good alternative solution to find out this inductor after that one of

Thank you to everyone who replied. I have a good place to start. Going to order crystals for 29.0 and 29.1 next week, then start the retuning after they are received. An old ham friend of mine in Georgia just gave me a RS HTX-10 mobile, which also has AM. I will try playing with that until the

The HTX-10 is a winner on AM. Audio sounds very nice even with the stock mic. I love mine. Current draw is low and works great with an amplifier, going from the 7 watt carrier to 70 watts with most good amplifiers. I worked Japan with that rig in the truck a few years ago! When 10 is open, 7 watts

Mark, The HTX10 will bring you lots of AM qsos too, but the tube rigs will indeed sound much better. I'm curious which cb model you will be converting.

If it was made anytime prior to the early 1970's then it is Dektol, Pyronal or other trade names for PCBs. The bad stuff. Don't drink it! Mike - Original Message - From: Mark Foltarz [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: amradio@mailman.qth.net Sent: Thursday, November 04, 2004 9:21 PM Subject: [AMRadio]

I was thinking JCL, but put in an R. Did he have a 6m AM repeater also? I have been reading on-line about WA6TDD, one of the first 2m repeaters in So. California. It started out on AM. Wish I could remember the guy in Little Rock , AR that was on 145.35 with a kW on 2m AM back in the '70's. A
