I just ordered a Voyage VR 9000 along with a KLV40 amp and Wilson 5000, OHHHH YEAAAHH! Wake up America! I'm gonna be shoutin at ya!
Copper, you have some loyal customers, I hope to be one of them in about three days. Many thanks to Steve 181, CopperFan, Vernott?? I know I have that wrong! and Gator I know your a rookie like me but your input helped, get your rig dude! I know your goin towards the Galaxy but the Voyage has all the 949 has and more, I'm goin on Steves recomendation, he said the VR and DX88 are the same and are a step above the 949. In a week or two I'll be at a summit about an hours drive outa San Diego at over 5,000 feet shootin some skip at ya'll,handle is Metrocat, hope your listening!!

Mark, San Diego, Ca.

Congratulations Metrocat : Always good to hear that some young blood has decided to get in on the fun.Some of us diehard old timers are on our way out and we need young people to fill in where we leave a void.All that it should have taken to convince you was the very realistic report from the BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU.Have a great day and enjoy the hobby for years to come.

Mark,

Congratulations, you are now hooked on radio! Is Copper going to peak / tune your radio? If not let me know, and we'll get your radio setup. That radio has a Hi/Lo power switch, so you can set low power for the amp and high power for when you're not using it.

You are gonna have a rockin setup there my friend, you WILL enjoy it!

Steve

You had it peaked and tuned Did you let them know you will be running that KL40 amp with it I think the max input for that amp is 1 to 5 watts AM and 1 to 10 watts ssb Dont want to blow it up on the first key

Do you have a DX number or a handle ? It's really tough talking to anyone anonymous.
