(I'm a lazy sod, i don't like having to set up the laptop, what with updates and stuff).<br />I'm sure someone could design a sdr dongle with antenna input, and wireless remote, that i could plug into tv usb and get a fully functional sdr display, that i could surf the radio waves, doesn't need to transmit, just a receiver say 1 Mhz to 2 Ghz, with a scan function and frequency manager/memory.<br />I await its construction with a fist full of money, lol,...Seriously, i want one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-45901531163160144732023-12-15T16:06:14.736-05:002023-12-15T16:06:14.736-05:00Thunderpole have released a new CB radio called th...Thunderpole have released a new CB radio called the T-X.

I saw some Brazilian youtubes doing the same thing and they burned out after transmitting in the high 200s for a while. The one guy who got it working well said above 248mhz the radio is unstable. <br /><br />Also the guy who burnt his was using high power into an old frequency analyzer. So my suggestion here is stay between 128-177 and 200-248 and stay on LOW unless you're in an official band AND have the right antenna/load. The stock antenna is not for 220, get a proper tri-band or dedicated one else you'll be pumping that power back into the radio and eventually it will be a paperweight.<br /><br /><br />I know transmission on 380, etc is happening too as I can pick myself up on the scanner but again, don't know if the stock antenna is any good here. Maybe need to look at harmonics/etc with RTL-SDR or buy a proper frequency & SWR analyzer + add a dummy load. Certain freq out of band transmission (ie >248), the power drops too which may again mean the watts are going somewhere else so without real testing take it easy.<br /><br />My next idea is to do this to BF-F8+ since it uses the same chips.. in fact I think the fancy new $50 TRI band BFs are the same as all of these just with proper antennas and maybe some software mods.<br /><br />Ironically, there is NOTHING in the 200-260 range besides some satellite down-links, hardly anything on legal ham bands either, nor 380s. The only radio users in my area are in the 400+, ie the cops, business, etc and this is a major metro area. Of course there is some AM stuff there but really cell phones killed the radio star. When it comes time to use these for actually talking it will be FRS/GMRS/MURS for me; all empty.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-43067919216951673642018-10-07T16:43:39.202-04:002018-10-07T16:43:39.202-04:00Whoever thought of a CPU in a radio ham or not was...Whoever thought of a CPU in a radio ham or not was a moron.

I'm going to be switching to the 8 watt model. I have not installed a manual freq and squelch adjust but once I have a 8f I'm going to. Another issue with the UV is all the blocking capacitors used to limit the transmitter. That really screws it. Replacing those capacitors with enough resistors to keep the wattage @ 10 or 15 or less is a great idea too. I have many great ideas. Like pulling the junk FM receiver the DSP mpu and voice then installing analog tuner and actually having a simpler system with all this obnoxious non working software.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-39271591116424647212018-10-07T16:32:21.201-04:002018-10-07T16:32:21.201-04:00This modification is not worth doing except by its...This modification is not worth doing except by its author. The DSP chip actually needs replacement with one that can handle outside two and 70cm range if you actually want to receive and transmit. It's really a drop in replacement from looking at the schematic if you can find a chip that is pin to pin and power compatible. The big issue with the uv-5 is the lack of manual tuning and squelch. Those turn it into a real transceiver.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-61499869811736824062017-09-18T09:51:25.520-04:002017-09-18T09:51:25.520-04:00I have a baofeng uv 5r and I can use 490.mhz range...I have a baofeng uv 5r and I can use 490.mhz range with no hack I can go between 400-520 MHz Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12847363645363053376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-825512062730393632017-09-18T09:48:22.994-04:002017-09-18T09:48:22.994-04:00I have a baofeng uv 5r and I can use 490.mhz range...I have a baofeng uv 5r and I can use 490.mhz range with no hack I can go between 400-520 MHz Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12847363645363053376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-53030421185508004442017-06-20T12:24:54.479-04:002017-06-20T12:24:54.479-04:00Risky?Risky?Jennahttp://dailytwocents.com/greenies-dogs-treats-recall/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-55117941805500657742017-05-05T12:13:34.257-04:002017-05-05T12:13:34.257-04:00BAD BAD BAD WORDS,common,watch the language,my VIR...BAD BAD BAD WORDS,common,watch the language,my VIRGIN EYES???Baconaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04184859566476020454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776602294831690519.post-25515853718739506522016-12-24T23:48:19.653-05:002016-12-24T23:48:19.653-05:00Works on BTECH branded UV-5X3 to open receive rang...Works on BTECH branded UV-5X3 to open receive range.
