Do you have subs in your doors? Are they aftermarket? Also, does your vehicle have the Sync system? If so, you'll need to disable the factory amp, as most aftermarket systems I’ve seen don’t support it. My vehicle had the standard audio system, so everything plugged in without any issues. However, if you have the Sync premium system, it’s not supported-essentially, you'd be sending speaker-level output into low-level RCA inputs.

@ it does have a sync system! How do I go about disabling the amp?

@theelectronman I have the sync system with factory sub& amp in the door. Now that being said you said sync is being the reason I’m hearing that buzzing. If I get an aftermarket amp& subs would that possibly fix it?

@@johnathonsimon1668 Yes it has RCA outs so you can run an amp possibly even the factory one. I have heard of it done but the easy way would just to get an amp and connect to the RCA outs of the new deck and connect your speakers to that new amp.

@@timidater4803 It shows average power only.

It's a Silver Eagle pretty sure they all have them the older Tig 9's did not have it but all the newer D104's Silver Eagles do..

@@TheElectronMan okay, cool thank you

Tp make them equal about 2/3rd's on the D104 since all it has is a pot on the bottom to adjust and on the M2 I set to about 5 on the Mod gain and the tone in about 6.

@@TheElectronMan great. thank you for the fast reply. I think I'm going to grab one up. Appreciate the review.

@@hydrocrab74 Thank you

Check your wiring, mine did that because I had it hooked up backwards on the plugs that plug into the new unit. I don't know why they have 2 spots that the same plug harness will fit into..

I got a replacement and it works

Thank you so much for the positive feedback..

Thanks I tried my best to give a real comparison between the two. BTW I am running my M2 now and getting great reports on it :)

You are welcome glad I could help you out..

They are great antenna's I am running two of them one for my APRS setup and one for normal use they both perform amazing..

Thanks thought I would spice things up a little :)..

I love mine I think you will be happy with it..

Your welcome I figured it would help some people out as it is a bit confusing if you don't know how the mechinsum works.

I know you are right we are not much more prepared here I saw one snow truck. I also thought I had a snow shovel from 20 years back but didn't find it and I sure didn't have a ice scrapper for the truck I just used a broom and let idle for an hour to thaw it out LOL..

@@cajuncoinhunter wow crazy right! I bet you guys probably have less snow equipment than we do.

@cajuncoinhunter I had the gain set to about 2/3rds on the D104, I agree the M2 has heavier sound and I really like being able to adjust it on the fly with top controls. Have to say I think it's a better mic and I have been using D104's for 30 years at least.

I agree it has become my go to mic...

I used PLA because it should hold up well for my application. I made the wall thickness about 10 layers, roughly 2mm, to ensure the part is very sturdy. For my setup, the rotor plate is just a flat piece cut to fit inside the tower. I completely agree that the rotor should be mounted inside, with a top section of the tower bearing the side load. This way, the rotor doesn't experience any significant lateral pressure. With this setup, you can use a relatively large antenna with this type of rotor since it isn’t subjected to heavy loading.

Thanks it's a great mower..

Thanks

@michaelmuldoon441 it should be fine the Cobra will not pull that much maybe 2amps on SSB and the RM on max pulls a little less than 30 amps at worse on max it might drop a few watts which is no going to hurt anything. Personally, I like 3 on th RM, which is around 200 watts and like 20 amps.

Man that should hold up good as 500lb one is still going strong..

@mikeg.6767 Thank you. I agree both are good mic's, but personally, I like the richer sound out of the M2.

I sure like to have one. Great demo.

@@klv400 Thanks

I got it off Amazon and for 100.00 I am really happy with it as you can see it works well here is a link to the antenna I bought amzn.to/3Pm0NdP

@@TheElectronMan wow, that is amazing. I have the astro beam and astro plain and i could talk to canada on sideband

Yes Sir.

@@TheElectronMan cool. i had one and it picked up my bird chirping on the other side of the house

Loud and Proud not doubt !

@@cajuncoinhunter Thanks Happy New Year!

@@TheElectronMan Did you have a chance to do any soldering with that lil portable iron for 99 cents ? That one I showed is doing a bang up job....

@@cajuncoinhunter NO because when I got it didn't include the power cord should have noticed that when I got it for a dollar I need to order one so I can try it out..

@@TheElectronMan You have the stuff to make one ............The plug itself is a 5.5 X 2.1 mm , common as the 2SC 945 transistors ....... A piece of double hook up wire and a 20 to 24 volt source........If you don't have the stuff I can send you the stuff ...... I have lot's of parts and stuff....

@@cajuncoinhunter LOL, yeah, you’d think so, but I haven’t been able to find a plug that fits it right, found a couple that fit but real loose and others were just to small. I’ve found at least a dozen plugs, but not the one I need. I guess I’m going to have to salvage one from a power brick-I’ve got a whole box of various ones, so I’m hoping one of them will fit. Power isn’t an issue; I can use my 30-amp variable power supply. I just need the right plug.

Yes, exactly. When you turn off that specific item on the master, the others will also turn off. If you want the others to stay on all the time, I suggest plugging in something that is on all time like a fan or light to keep the circuit active. This power strip was designed for something like an entertainment center, so when you turn off the TV, all the other equipment powers down as well. The other two sockets function like a regular power strip.

@ thank you- that makes sense! 🫡
