03-07-26 Good cheap radios for DMR that work I'm wanting to build up my collection of DMR handhelds I only need a couple more just so I've got a good selection.

After buying the problematic Boafeng DR-1801UV its really put me off buying anymore DMR handhelds but I know I can't give up on my DMR dream because of one problematic radio. I guess its a question of live and learn when buying such radios. I've been interested in the Boafeng DM1701 I know a few people have those radios but I'm just wondering if I should expect to have issues... Read more View article »
03-07-26 Is the PRS600 still worth updating and using? Newbie to the site here, and wondering if a PRS600 I've had since new but just recently took out of a several year storage is worth the time and effort of updating? I'm... 03-07-26, 18:02 pm Newbie to the site here, and wondering if a PRS600 I've had since new but just recently took out of a several year storage is worth the time and effort of updating? I'm the original owner and the site I bought it from had programed the local channels in, but that was at least a decade ago, and have all cables that came with it, but I do not have the disc. Lost in moving, life, etc... The 600 still works but I've noticed it does not pick up as many channels, I assume it's due to the local... Read more View article »

From eBay, I ordered what was advertised as two KCT-19 connectors that had been converted to DA15 connectors. After testing the pinouts on the modified KCT-19, I found that it each terminating wire wasn't connected to a DA15 pin, so I opened the DA15 housing and found this. My only guess is that this was wired for a different kind of repeater controller before? Anyway, The resistor is... Read more View article »

This housing is made from 1/4" plywood and 3/4 X 1/8" thick aluminum angle stock for the faceplate mounting ears and also along all four edges of the housing for strength. All screws are black oxide coated and these are much cheaper from Amazon than any local hardware store. The size of the box was determined by how far apart the aluminum angle stock rails for the faceplates ended... Read more View article »
