Thanks, I'm going to give it a try! Tim kk7vv9/WSAC215

Running KMR400 (50') to an LDG IT-100 autotuner connecting to an ICOM IC-7200 with a 3' 400 coax jumper which is quite cumbersome in my limited space. Would power loss be significant if I went to a smaller diam coax? Thx Tim/kk7vvp

kidphc, That worked, thanks for the info and encouragement!

Figured out the LOCK function now is there a way to bypass call sign input?
-
Preparing to take Tech test soon. I bought Yeasu ftm-500dr to monitor tfc to learn proper protocol so I don't sound like an idiot when I am able to transmit. My problem is on first pwr up step 1 is to enter call sign. Trying to bypass that step to start monitoring. I must have done something wrong since any button hit displays LOCK. Thanks in advance for help' Tim (WSAC215/GMRS)

I am currently using a Comet-712efc 460-470mhhz antenna mounted 30' high. I would like to mount my Tram 1477B to monitor 144-148/430-460mhz on a kg1000g+. 1. How far apart would the antennas need to be (No TX on Tram) 2. Would an antenna splitter w/ separate coax to each antenna work or would I need a switch with the separate coax. Thx

In my original post I was questioning only getting 22-23w out of my 50w MXT575. I was able to have my radio tested by C&M Communications. On my Pyramid P59KX (5/7amp pwr supply output was 23-24w. On his power supply reading 50W on the MXT.... Guess who just bought a decent pwr supply! Thanks to all the original replies. Tim WSAC215, Star Valley AZ

Another vote for Comet CA-712EFC. Was using a Tram1477-B. The Comet is much better.

I submitted this to Midland tech support with no response so maybe someone here can give me some opinions and/or suggestions. My Midland MXT575 is powered by 13.8vdc Pyramid PS9KX power supply. Testing with a Surecom SW-33 meter and 50W dummy load, the best output I can get is 22-23W on various channels. I know you will probably never get the full claimed power output but less than 50% ?
