Re: [Flexradio] Damage control - "designed for AM" ?

I have a friend of mine W9AD, he has a 5000A, operates it remote from Mexico most of the time, and sounds like $1,000,000 on AM. Work him every Saturday on 3.885 and no one has a better signal. Other than myself of course. Dave W9WRL Jim Barber wrote: I had to do a little damage control wit

[Flexradio] TX Power

Guys, I got my 3000 at Dayton this year and am just now starting to really dig into it. First thing I noticed is that the drive seems low. I connected the 3000 to my AL-811h amp, and right away I notice much lower output from the amp Vs using it with my 756 Pro II. That was right after Dayton.

I'm in the start up phase of the same project. A quick look around the ham mags and catalogs yielded no such mic switch. So i am currently gathering the need parts to build my own, perhaps I will document the project and post it to me web site for all to see. Dave W9WRL.com Ed White wrote:
