never implied he was trying to rubber one cut for another channel, just rubber
one that was too far off frequency.

Yeah, I could see that. He did not specify the crystal manufacture, plus the

Try the manual power mod, iv taken a low power 900 maxtrac and brought it down
to about 250mw before the radio stops tx'ing, it got stabler at about 350mw. I
had a range of a stable 350mw to 20w or so. I dont know if the mod can be done
to a GM300 as i have never done one to that radio, but
There used to be a great little company in the Toronto area called Lesmith that
did a nice job with crystals at prices below ICM's. They morphed a couple times
and changed names, but I think they're out of the crystal biz now. Anyone have
an update?

Hi
I have some low band maxtracs here in the UK and want to use them on 6mtrs,
the rx side is fine but the firmware won't allow you
to set the tx pwr above 50Mhz, so I intend to do the pwr mod, just one track
cut and a pot between the 9.6v, and one side of the
cut. I have found that my gm300,s

I need you to do two more things:
1) Tell me where the measurements of the lengths of the coax were made to,
were they to the edge of the molded tee block, or to the center of the block,
and at the splice to the different coax cables, was the measurement to the
center of the splice or at

Thanks Allen.
All coax harness measurements are center of moldings or splices.
The dipoles are supposed to be standard db224a elements. I will have to measure
them and get back to you on that.
All connectors are N type.
Thanks again

This is just my opinion but since the new style harnesses have been
installed on all of the new DB-224s, i have found that the patterns and

Hello Andrew and Norm
If you are trying to figure out the lengths needed for 144-148Mhz I can
measure what you need to know but not in a hurry. I have a DB products antenna
that is cut for the two meter band that I ordered from DB Products about 10
years ago. What I need to know is the

I would certainly be interested in knowing just how a 150-162 MHz DB224 could
be easily be modified to cover 220. The dipoles would need to be physically
shortened and the matching harness would need to be completely redesigned.
What magic do you have in your bag of tricks to manage this?

Don, the copy of the statute you quoted specifically exempts communications

That's not true. Certain information (that which is specifically intended
for rebroadcast to the public) MAY be rebroadcast.
The statute (both Federal and State) has to do with privileged
communications, not material which is intended for public consumption.
