Re: [RCSE] Why tune/match tx and rx

2000-08-17 Thread YK Chan
TX tuning will be made by FCC certified operators only. If Joe can tell his problem is related to radio tower, then why tuning the RC equipment can be a solution? My recommendation is to drive to a place free from radio towers or any suspicious towers or emitters, and make a "reference" ground
