  1. Thank you all for your responses. I agree with everything you have written. In short, I get what I pay for. Once again thank you for taking the time to respond in a friendly, professional and respectful manner. 73's.
  2. I've had one of these radios since last Christmas. I've been using it with a 5-element homebrew Yagi antenna. I have no complaints about the performance of the radio so far. The current SWR is 1.10 and I'm using it with a 13.8V @ 30A power supply. I'm using RG-58 coax. (I know, it's not the right one, but it's what I have for now). I recently hooked up a SWR/power meter and was surprised that the power output of the radio is 20W, even when it's set to "High". If you understand that the problem is the cable, I'll probably keep using it like that since I'm happy with the range and contacts I've made so far. I'd appreciate if any other colleagues who have had the same situation with this radio could share their experience. Thanks in advance.
