I just got "reinterested" in my ham ticket I got in 1974. Found a used 2980 for 100 bucks that works like a champ. |

Hawkeye, you'll like that 2995. I've been running one several years with no problems at all. Maybe we can hook up on skip sometimes. I've talked to lots of stations in KY over the years. Scrapiron CEF 108 |

The 2995 is an excellent radio. There was a HUGE opening on 10m today. Europe was being worked from the U.S. like locals. Your radio 'Mythbuster' since 1998

hmmmmmmm WOW!! Lucky you. I can do what I want here as long will fit the space. Glad I kept all my gear. Live in a trailer court for 8 years until we bought this house last Jan. Feel sorry for anyone that lives where u can't have antennas. tony/n5jva/cef 259 |
