This radio called a IC-78, has all 40 cb channels and if you hold down the
FC button for a second you open up the radio and can TX up and down.

100 Watts PEP

My Drake TR7 CB is nice and all but it drifts a little. My Kenwood 440 SAT, I
was told when I bought it the 40 in 440 is for 40 channels.

Want to bet they slip in to the Ham 10m Ham band
from time to time using a bootleg call sign. Tim
Nebo used a mod'ed Yeasu FT-840 to do the same
thing. Boy did he get hot with the denials when I
brought up the subject that he was using the rig
on something other than 11m, like bootlegging on
the Ham HF bands. He even publicly asked about
using the so called "Charlie" frequencies, used by
airliners over the ocean for long distance
communication, on this very news group.

Now that the sun spots are on the wan the only DX
these freebanders are going to see "regularly"
will be on the lower Ham HF bands. Since they
don't have any morals about ignoring Part 95 rules
I'm sure that some of them can't resist the urge
to spin that VFO dial down to a Ham band. All it
takes is a simple dipole and some coax to get on
the band for them.

I'll be great sport to see how many bootleggers
can be ID'ed and busted. Maybe even suggest it as
a new form of contesting to the ARRL!

You know.........You have a great idea. Use the low HF
bands for further DXing, and you make it a contest to
boot!

DXing has never been so much fun. Thanks for the
suggestion. Let the contest begin!

For it's correct purpose - yakking away the hours on.
CB and Amateur are different services for different purposes. The failure
to see that is causing Governments to try to make them more alike,
gradually turning Amateur into a CB service.

If people just want to yak, they want CB... if they want to get technical,
then they want Amateur. There is no reason why people should not
have both (as many do), if they have a proper use for each.


Happy new year.

Peter.

No one said they heard you on the ham bands Tim, but if you have no
qualms about bootlegging on the HF air comms band then why should we
believe you'd care about the hams bands?

How about my Yeasu FT-847 multiband multi mode rig
at my apartment, a Icom IC-706MKIIG multiband
multi mode rig in my old van (both rig and van are
being currently replace), and the Yeasu FT-817

At least he has the balls to admit to operating on

he has to do is come clean about the rest of it.
Or prove other wise.

blanker, AM, FM (normal and narrow), USB, LSB,
digital modulation ability, auto control of
external antenna tuner etc. All in a box about the
size of your typical CB. Oh, and the power output
too, 100 watts sideband and FM up to 6m, 50 watts
sideband and on 2m, and 20 watts sideband and FM
on 70cm. And there is more.
