Hello Everyone,
I am looking to run 10 and 12 meters (I don't care about running CB) in the car
and am looking at the Ranger RCI-2970 and the Uniden 2600. Which one of these can be modified to run on 12 meters aswell (and maybe 15 too?) Where can I find
these frequency mods?
Thanks..

SYNOPSIS OF ACTIVITY
--------------------
Solar activity was very low with only minor B-class
enhancements observed. Several observatories reported that the
trailer spot of Region 7648 (N07W54) merged with the leader
spot of Region 7650 (N05W41). This technically results in the
formation of a delta configuration but apparently there is
little shear in the area as evidenced by the lack of burst
activity. A small class C group emerged at S06W18 and was
numbered as new Region 7651.
Solar activity forecast: solar activity should be at a
very low to low level. There is a slight chance of an M-class
flare from the 7648/7650 complex but that possibility is
diminished. Old Region 7640 is due to return to the east limb
near N08 on 15 Jan. This region produced 7 M-class and 62
C-class flares last rotation and faded from view as a large
region with magnetic complexity. This region could return as
an M-class flare producer.
The geomagnetic field was unsettled to active. Some high
latitude sites experienced minor to major storm conditions
during the period.
Geophysical activity forecast: the geomagnetic field
should be unsettled to slightly active for 13-14 Jan as the
coronal hole related disturbance subsides. Isolated storm
conditions are possible during that period. Mostly
unsettled levels are forecast for 15 jan.

HF propagation conditions were below-normal over the high,
polar, and upper-middle latitude paths. Lower latitudes saw
near-normal propagation. The geomagnetic and auroral activity
which has produced fair to occasionally very poor propagation
for transpolar and transauroral paths is expected to begin
diminishing over the next 24 hours. However, periods of minor
to major substorming over the high latitudes can still be
expected on 12 January. Conditions should begin improving to
near-normal by 13 and particularly 14 January.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTIVITY
--------------------
Solar activity remained very low. Only minor B-class
enhancements were observed from Region 7650 (N05W55) and 7648
(N07W68). Region 7648 exhibited some decay. The Mauna Loa
observatory reported a coronal mass ejection from near N13E90
between 12/1930-2200Z. No significant x-ray or radio
enhancements were observed during that time. The ejection
likely occurred from old Region 7640 which should be nearing
the east limb at those latitudes. Yohkoh images show a broad
area of diffuse x-ray emission at the northeast limb with small
brighter streamers.
Solar activity forecast: solar activity should increase
over the next few days as previously active longitudes
rotate into view. The possibility of M-class activity exists
from this area. A better assessment will be possible once
old Region 7640 (and others nearby) become visible.
The geomagnetic field was generally unsettled to active as
the coronal hole related disturbance continued. As in
previous days, some sites experienced periods of minor to
major storm conditions.
Geophysical activity forecast: the geomagnetic field
should continue at unsettled to active levels for 14 Jan.
Mostly unsettled levels are forecast for 15-16 Jan.
Isolated active conditions are possible during that time
as the disturbance slowly subsides.

HF propagation conditions were near-normal over the low
and central middle latitude regions today, although the middle
latitudes did experience some signal degradations on
night-sector paths due to the enhanced geomagnetic activity.
High and polar latitude paths have observed below-normal
propagation with poor to occasionally very poor signal quality,
particularly on night-sector transauroral circuits. Conditions
should begin improving over the next couple of days and should
be near-normal by about 15 or 16 January.

I suspect this is because the amateur service is self-policing, in general,
and tends to discourage such stuff. I suspect it's also because you really
don't sound like you know what you are doing, and while I will avoid making
any judgement calls about pirate radio in general, I will say that pirate
radio stations that are run by people who don't know what they are doing tend
to be a very bad thing for the amateur radio service, as well as radio in
general.
What's wrong with ferrite inductors anyway? They're cheap and easy to
wind... would you rather do the old-fashioned air-core thing?

SP version 6.10 (The last shareware version) has been uploaded to
ucsd.edu in hamradio/packet/tcpip/incoming as sp610.zip
Just follow the bouncing ball, unzip with pkunzip 2.04g and RTFM.
This is not a simple program, but it is very easy to get running.

To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
Besides the Sony 2010 posted previously, I have an MFJ-959B Antenna
Tuner/Amplifier which I would sell with the Sony.
I paid $90 for the MFJ-959. Again, this is virtually unused. I have
everything that came with it in new condition.
I'd like to get $300 for both the MFJ and the Sony.

Hi Scott. I don't know where it is on internet but I do have the program.
If you don't find it elsewhere, let me know. I'm sure there's a way I
can send you a message with the file attached. I think that's called MIME.

This sounds strikingly like the recent problem in New York with a 222Mhz
machine where a 1/2W+ spur would appear on the transmitter output when the
machine was unkeyed. I'd want to connect an analyzer directly to the
transmitter in question and verify that it is indeed responsible for the
spur. If it is, service that equipment. It is also possible some other
equipment located at the same site as the suspected transmitter is being
inspired to produce the spur. Either way, the first step is to isolate the
location/equipment where the signal is coming from.

There's one very simple thing you can do: buy an external speaker-mic for your
HT, and always use it. This will let you hold the rig a good foot or two from
most parts of your body (except the arm holding the rig).
