hey frog do you mean the low side of 36 or 36 LSB. Cause the 66V doesnt have LSB. Just wondering if you used another radio beside the 66V.

The guy said skip was awesome!!! meaning he had conditions but then went on to say it was hard to get his name called on 6,11,26,and28.

How's that burban coming? I need to get my farm truck done. These conditions are making me crazy. I'm having rf withdraw symptoms.

The alternator is installed along with all the wiring... Got my (2) 8V monster batteries in the back of the suburban, and now we are currently working on the antenna system... Takes time but I'm anxious to fire up that 16pill...

Did you get your 16 done? Have you bench tested it? Should do some talking. And to think the locals hated the 12pill. They are really gonna love ya now. What kind of ant system you shooting for? Coil or fighting stick? 2 ,3, or 4 type system. You gonna use it for key down or skip?
I've heard rumors of some crazy setups in the works. The locals have all gone MAD!!!

I was gonna convert the 12pill to a 16pill, but just decided to build a new 16pill instead... I will still use the 12pill for a backup or just sell it, who knows .. I'm going with the fighting sticks... Should be interesting.... I just want a decent talking truck for skip conditions, I dont really care about shoot outs... Not really into all that...

later
