Universal Radio is a GREAT source of Ham and Shortwave radios/equipment, but their prices for used items, IMHO, seem a little too high. I've only bought 1 used...
What mode(s) will you or the served agency be using? For SSB, horizontal loops work well. Verticals for FM. Since the application is for disaster use, I would ...

I picked up a new handheld the other day (my old one finally died) that happens to include the six meter band. I didn't buy it because of the extra band, all...
Hi, Joe, and everyone else, ... Until you get a better antenna, yes, definitely. Maldol makes a triband antenna for that rig that is much longer and much...
Joe, You'll be marginal at best wit the supplied antenna on 50.400. I see you are in FM19 and we have a couple of 6M AM nets on 50.400. the biggest is Sunday ...
I was looking at the Maldol tri band antenna, I might pick that up, since I can't even hit the local 6 meter repeater with the antenna supplied. Strange that...

There is activity on more than 50.125 (6M Calling freq). Don't be afraid to QSY up, you'll find plenty of activity from above 50.125 to 50.400 and over (not...
Not all of the action is on SSB on 6m. I have made numerous 6 meter FM QSOs as well during band openngs and worked several new grids and even new states that...
There is also FM activity, at least in the San Diego CA area, on 50.300. I've literally run pile-ups on 50.3 FM when the band was open from here (NM) to...
Well, the summer Es season is all but over, and it's time once again to try to rein in those reluctant rare-grid QSL cards. Anyone having the slightest clue or...
Hi Bill, Not sure of all but C6AIE / W8ZD who sends cards out only once or twice a year, but he is a very good for a return. I've gotten 6 from him one from...
