CB Antenna Update - Sirio GPS-27 Installed on My House
Hey, I just watched the RUclips video and I was wondering how long was those wires ground wires I was going to do the same exact thing you did I was just wondering how long those wires
I cut the wires to about 104 inches. Good luck with your antenna, 73's
@@MowerJunkie thank you and I’ll sure try
Nice job again ! looks great!
Thanks 948. Catch you on the air, 73's
You don't need the conversion, to get the American CB channels in 10 Meter mode set band switch to high then set band selected switch to E - band that's it you got all the American CB channels AM and FM.
That’s a great distance !!
The earth is flat dude. I'm saying think of the world schematic that the bible talks about... then think of that 2D depiction an evolving timewave. Pilots can see cities hundreds of miles away. The only thing the flat earth guys really get wrong is they're not thinking 4th dimension. NASA is a total scam. Freaking cash cow bringing in what, something like $43 million a day. And they give you CGI, astro-nots with wire bulges on green screen. Lying tong of NASA. Until the collapse... oh well.
Oh yeah by the way, how long was those wires?
Excellent video John :) those Realistic TRC 465 great radio also like 451, 453 too also my one Cousin Terry hed had 451 one shock I showed him Squelch Control pull knob for Noise Blanker switch he did know about ever and said help hearing mobile setups better! Yes lots those Realistic radios put 3 to 4 watts Am , Sideband 12 to 20 and lots modulation on Stock microphone over 100% ! My Uniden Grant XL put 3 to 4 watts on Am , Sideband 12 to 22 and modulation loud too ! Realistic TRC 485 am/ sideband radio are super too and I have but needed fix up!
That’s so cool!!! I actually made contact with Southern Ireland yesterday. From the state of Maryland from my Mobil. Just a cobra 29 with rfx95 and a 102” whip so cool
i wanted to go to this break but so dang far from Ga
Congratulations you made a 10 meter band antenna.
Thanks for the nice video .... would you know if I could use an older Turner +3 desk mic with the radio and if so, would you know the RJ45 pin connections to use? Thanks.
Question. When you are calling CQ, what does "151" mean and does this need to be on Ch. 38? It does sound like side band.
the numbers are like a handle or name, and can be used anywhere on CB.
@MowerJunkie so in other words I could use my HAM call sign, if nothing else
God bless you both, thanks for the test❤🎉
NICE-@@!!!
Nice John. ✌✌
I'm thinking of buying one! Question is please; were mainly FM, does this make a difference? I'm feeding with about 8metres of rg58. I'm in Dover UK LOL!
this antenna works great on AM, FM and SSB at 27 mhz. Thanks for watching, Enjoy the hobby.
Thanks for info!
Good stuff. Dig the way you discuss it. What accent? Long Island?
Thanks so much. 45 years in the Boston area, made me sound the way I do. Thanks for watching, Take care.
Hello sir from the Philippines. This is another great project you've made. The SWR is good all the way up the upper 27 MHz. band. Anyway, just a hypothetical question. What do you think is the SWR at around 28.500 MHz.?
Thanks. I just checked it, at 28.5 mhz the SWR is about 1.5
Where do you guys on the cb get yalls call sign numbers? Is it ham license or zip code or ?
🤣🤣🤣🤣What a bunch of CB Crap
Wonderful video as usual from mower junkie, I must admit though I’d be lost on that radio without a frequency counter
Too bad there is a large group in texas louis tennesee operatin 27.825 found them by accident one day a few also have and use FM as well A while back i hit them almost every day
Hey john has your analyzer ever told you your antenna eas better or worse than what an swr meter tells you ? I havent had opportunity to use or own one but have had several swr meters some appea.r more accurate some have shown a noteable rise when three others dont
I only use SWR meters that show the same result as my analyzer. sometimes SWR meters can get out of adjustment, and need to be recalibrated internaly.
@@MowerJunkie I know but straight new???! I picked up a 150w digital my ch 1 same as analog 40 .2 off to bad 60 .5 off 27.825 1.7 off My antron flat 1.1-1.2 26.500. To 28.005
nice ant, and radios have a great day, stay cool, it's hot up herebetween the rain, in mi.
Thanks, you too! 73's
Hi...boy what a hard time putting that antenna together with that little bolt😢
I tuned a dipole antenna I made back around 2008 with 12G copper wire I got from Lowe's using the SWR meter. I checked the SWR on Ch 1 and on Ch 40 and kept checking and trimming until it was around the same on Ch 1 and Ch 40. I ended up with a 1.1 match between 1-40 and 1.2-.1.3 going 10 channels each way.
Hey mower junkie i like your build i was thinking about building a three element beam but that one looks good thanks for sharing hillbilly in the bam waving
J'ai pratiquement la même (ITA 112) et bien réglée et à une hauteur d'une 1/2 onde elle fonctionne très bien. Merci encore pour la vidéo. 73s. Joel.
I think it's safe to Say Your The Homebrew Antenna Master on the 27mhz. Never take the away the suspense moment for the SWR range you get....
Thanks, 73's
Love your videos - especially your experimental homemade antennas !
I need to make one just like it!! It would go great under my A99 on my tower @45' to the bottom! 295 Maine waving 👋
What were your final measurements?? I have all the parts to make one.
I used the instructions for a Maco M-103, I just didn't use the 3rd element.
The coax becomes the radiator this why they suggested 50ft min But high RF into other devices and loss of signal 1/2 mi down road to a Mobil. Talked zero DX on this antenna also on Sideband RF goes back into radio distorting audio . But it's ok for am test antenna .
That's area i'm looking for on my 4element i called them mower junkie channels for lower SWR's like 35,37,38,40, 27.415's 27.425's,27.515's on up LSB 27.555MHZS.
did get you get chance saw my President Uniden Grant video this radio i hope my rm italys not burn out it just making 5a fuse glow on front atx board computer power supply i have 3 of them computer power supplys i blew 3 5 amp fuses not inside the amp them yesterday it only does when talk in the mic am on cobra 139 and grant. it hads with my sliver eagle. yesterday i getting contacts to southeast tx northern LA with cobra 139 and President Uniden Grant.
I didn't see that video. I tried to watch your 4 element video, but the cloud graphics made it impossible to see anything.
You getting same heats from my area in east tn. to sc.
it's crazy hot outside, I'll be in front of the AC for the next few days.
did you had cut elements on your maco beam antenna?
nope, they slide into eachother, so no cutting needed.
Nice beam UDX-151.
Thanks Foxman, 73's
It’s that the man from Utah? 73 223
Hey John you forgot to give a shout-out to RI !! Nice job with the antenna ....73, 770-RI.
lol, RI is so small, I guess I forgot it. Take care 770, 73's
Antenna building! Lord help you if you ever get a ham ticket. Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained 73
one of these days I'll get my Ham ticket, but for now I'm having a lot of fun with CB. Thanks for watching, 73's
Nice job
Antenna Junkie 👋👍🍺🍺
John, your vids should have tons of likes. They're entertaining and you're a smart cookie! Nice build. I'm hoping to get back going by winter. Finding a qualified electronic shop is almost impossible here in the Ozarks. Cheers!
Thanks, I hope you get back on the air soon.....We miss you!
Our last QUALITY tech ( who opened his shop in 1975 is about to hit his 50 year of service) I went to him when he up need bout my best radio on his 25 anniversary and just got that radio repaired best receiver in the house my usual base the galaxy99v2 is getting a 10 year clean up and re tune he say it is good now the so239 on back had factory issues threads wouldn't allow full tighten and the wire inside he upgraded to a tiny shielded flexible coax That radio should be home by this eve xyl travels right past his offramp every other day and is picking it up for me 🎉🎉🎉🎉 10-12 meteR AM FM SSB 40 WATT bare foot ( though I have hi drv box behind it )
Sir do you do your own radio repair- upgrades or do you have a good shop recommendation.I don't think we have a cb shop in Augusta Ga. I just got a cobra 29 from ebay I think it needs to be gone through.
Take a tripp to "Cuz Customs" in Columbia SC. They'll get that 29 into tip top shape. Enjoy the weekend, 73's
Nice! Hey if you’re interested in a maco 10k gamma let me know. I got one that’s new and I don’t need it! Good video!
