skip

Good afternoon all! Question: All thing being equal, and hypothetically of course; for general use CB (short range), longer distance communication (25+ miles) and 'skip', is a higher powered radio (export or mod) or a linear amplifier generally preferred? Or both? Again assuming the same mic...

This is a question for the DX'ers or more seasoned operators out there: I've been checking out different cb forums for quite a while and also listening on the band and i find that cb ( including un-authorized out of band usage above ch. 40 ) is much more evolved in Europe compared to N...

Good evening to everybody. Have not posted in a little bit but wanted to share this with the members. Today while seaching thru 10M band I caught skip from CA. It was simplex on 29.290. I thought it was amazing to hear it. I was using a PCTEL (Maxrad) mobile antenna cut for 47MHz. It is a 1/4...

I have setup a TRS with a bunch of radio ids locked out and skipped so that I don't have to hear traffic from them. But all this seems to do is not display the alpha tag I have attached to the RID's that are locked out and skipped. The reason I want to do this is the city I want to listen to's...

I purchased a Wouxun KG-UV6X and it works fine. I can not find any information on how to toggle any memory channels from scan to not to scan using the keys or functions in the field. How can I go from Memory to VFO in order to program a channel in the field and save it to memory. The...

Why would an otherwise clear-sounding transmission be skipping out every other second when I have full signal strength? The scanner is a Radio Shack PRO106. I'm using the RS 20-006 telescoping whip antenna opened up to five sections. The frequencies that skip tend to be from Portsmouth, NH...

I'll have one radio parked on a clear FM channel and another on a clear weather radio frequency, both being recorded on a computer to see what kind of meteor skip I can hear. I'll just use low dipoles to minimize any tropo enhancement and maximize signals coming from space. I hope to get...
