Well, I thought I mentioned we were all using Comet or Diamond, I think the
worse is a Db5.1 gain anntena and the Elmer has a SWR meter, and we are all
losing less than 10% on most of the bands we use.
If I understand these amp manuals, I just hook my existing antenna wire into
the amp, then f
Heh. The CB550 has 105 watts, nothing but a hand held there!
The BMW has 450 or so, not a problem.

Using Mac Mail instead of Nabble, lets see if this works.
Most everyone on an HD or a Goidwing has a CB, because they are sold/installed
from the dealer. No one uses them. Getting a hi frequency “scree” from some
jerk is not conducive to riding.
25 watt it is. I am thinking that the Ft60 with

well, the naysayers have convinced me, the Elecraft is not the radio for me
for this application, and this is the application I need to solve first. A
home station is a year or two away, if ever.
I will just have to find a vendor that has a product that does what I need,
pity it is not this one.

LOL, I will have to put a tin foil shield in the Vanson leather jacket!
Bike handles two sets of 105w of heated clothing, 210w total so I suspect
it would be ok.
But I think 25 to 50 would be plenty.

As I have said, I think that I have been convinced.
If for no other reason, than if I did this, and had some sort of issue,
perhaps unrelated to the environment, the reaction may be "We told you so"
The bulk of the advice is to say "Not the product for you" and I am going
to take you all's advice

Yes, but I have at least 2 Generals and an extra class in the group... I
can give them control of the rig and use their license at camp, yes?

No, I hear that part about the high bands, I get that part now that someone
has said it. I now understand the radio restrictions, and that the 2m
module is going to be very low power.

Let me worry about the power provided by the bike, make recommendations
based on my actual requirements. We are doing short 15 sec info and
commands every 5 to 15 minutes, not rehearsing Hamlet over the air.
1/4 wave is only 1.5 meters, six feet. Need to flip it over when I get in
the garage, but
You don't have the requirements right.
We split to under 12 if we have more than 12 bikes, sometimes less, we
broke into 4 and 4 once, just because we had a less skilled group on what
was to be a spirited ride.
There is no requirement for 100% rider participation. Only the ride
officials, Captain
P.S. I stirred the pot, something I am sort of known for. =)
Believe me, we put a lot of thought into this, it is not a whim.

Support your local "maker space", they will likely have the gear and knowledge
to do SMT… and probably a bunch of young guys that have never seen HAM before
or know the potential.
