İ hear really bad things about the bearcat 980 SSB. İ rather have the EU version President MCKinley. Not the bearcat 980ssb!

Can extra channels be put in this radio and if so will it show the frequency like the 1 through 40 does ?

the cockroach running up the doorpost @ 2:53 was a bonus. :)

Just bought this as my first lawnmower. Thank you for this tutorial. Helped me get this started and ready to mow my lawn for the first time. No more paying someone else to do it.

Why make this simple antenna so complicated? 2/1 balun just use a 4/1 no stub make it a multi band simple

Very helpful Thank you!

Thank you so much for sharing this video, I think in my opinion you r the only one here on KZbin finally make the video on the right spot from where exactly oil leaks comes from for most of the oil leaks problems it may help for so many, highly appreciated for this video

8 years later and this is still a great helpful video

It’s the dummy load as it gets hot it stabilizes the power my belief it’s the dummy load it’s for hf use I don’t know what frequency range is that dummy load

That’s a keeper

Crazy it is old as me

The export one is the best president Jackson silver face my old time fav. I still own 1️⃣

How can I get a replacement wand for the gun?

What was wrong with the unit that proceeded this unit? I have a Frigidaire model number FDL70S1, it doesn’t have any pump so I have to keep it above the drain so I can just run it continuously into the utility sink.

I worked Poland ssb with three watts on a modified radio shack center load mobile cb antenna, so, yeah.

Do you have another video where you show how to take it apart? I've removed a bunch of screws but can't seem to figure out what's still holding the plastic case together.

What is the tool and what other thing can you use

at @3:27 you said this goes up to "even 12 Ghz". but you did not show that off, and it appears to top out at about 5.3 or so? hmm.

Nice! Glad you got it fixed.

Does the soap nozzle dispense at high pressure?

Excellent instructional video.

Minus db's don't mean anything to me. If you were to say don't go over a certain voltage or power level I would understand. Please explain and forgive my ignorance.

I hate when a wrench gets stuck on deez nuts

I've recently taken receipt of my ICOM 2730A and have encountered same issue with remote head having no bracket so I am going to try out a 360 degree mobile phone holster with velcro strips attached to both my remote head backing and holster cradle I'm hoping the mobile phone holster will stick into place on the dash otherwise double sided tape will be used to make sure its secured

You got a better deal than the 10m unbranded Chinese pole I bought from Aliexpress, it broke as I extended it for the first time, hadn't even got it all the way out of the plastic bag it came in. The third from bottom piece split up 3/4 of it's length vertically and made the 10m length useless. I could still use the top sections as a 4-5m pole. I contacted the seller and not only wouldn't they replace the item due to a manufacturing fault out of my control, they wouldn't even supply a replacement section unless I returned the broken piece first, the return postage alone was going to cost me $100+ MORE than I paid for the pole in the first place....I bought another one from a different seller, same pole, little cheaper than the broken one, and it's been sitting fully extended in my yard with a 10m flowerpot antenna on it for 3 years now, the second and third section from the bottom slip and collapse now and then, but I lay it down, pull them back up and stand it up again. Some of the Chinese stuff is good, some is garbage, you take your chance when you roll the dice...I also have a couple of 5m and a 7.5m pole that I use a lot portable, and they are still going strong after 3-4 years of intermittent usage with 3 element 2m yagi or 6m moxon or hentenna on them, so they can take a bit of punishment.

Thanks for sharing! My DX Commander classic mast broke. I contacted Loke and ordered two replacement masts I guess I can get them from DX Engineering now. I kept all the old sections in the instant a different section breaks.

Could not get them to ship it correctly, gave up and got a refund

Completed my install today in my 2022 Outback Touring XT, your video helped a lot

I don’t believe these guys are drunk. I believe they r displaying their actual personalities. Just a couple of idiots wasting time.

Thanks 741, did you try adding a tiger tail to see what difference it makes. I suspect it will help since the capacitance coupling is nil as opposed to a mag mount on metal or a full fledged install on metal. 73

Great job! Thanks for sharing. As a side note, I put my radio control head (icom 2730) on the seat bolt stalk and it's not in the way off the passenger or the shifter. However, it is farther off to the side so I have to turn my head more to see the radio. :)

Reminds me I broke my top 2 sections. I remember looking for the replacement parts and I thought they asked for the broken parts back. Maybe they just want the shipping tube back (just kidding). Thanks for sharing this.

I managed to get two DX Commander Classics one is riding permanently in my truck, the other resides in my garage with the flanges attached. I feel very fortunate to have these! Thanks for the great video!

They also sell single replacement sections. If it was a manufacturing defect, they might replace for free.

Nice Rob. Thanks

I had a 28-foot Jackite pole in permanent service for a few years without any issues. I think it’s likely that there was a defect in yours. I did later break the top section, and the bottom cap cracked, I ordered both from Jackite. I’m a fan of Jackite poles.

Shoddy carbon to break like that. Glad you got a good fix tho. Mike needs to do a bit on this too. @@hamradiotube Nice callsign, btw. Hold onto that one.

Great Job!!!

Funny timing. I ordered some replacement sections for my Carbon 6 a couple weeks ago and they just came in yesterday.

Well, this isn’t my problem..sad pandas.

I had a ts450 for years. Had to sell it. Just bought a ts 440s Thanks for the video

My washer has 4:02 no problem spraying water. It's the motor that won't turn on

This really helped!! My nozzle was rested and blocked, took care of the problem of it starting and stopping.

Any updates to tell us about this unit?

Please, i wanna get the eschematic circuit of Kdk FM2016A.

I learned something today, thank you. And oh yah this is for educational purposes only I didn’t forget!

Thanks Excellent video..

Do you have to remove the antenna when opening the hood?

Imagine buying it in 2024 and it’s now 100 bucks
