Trying out the Radiowavz Sentinel Hex Beam CB Antenna
Переглядів 7 тис.7 місяців тому
I thought I had lost this footage I shot during COVID but found it today and figured I'd do some voice over and show this antenna I purchased to test. Hex Beams are used quite often in the ham radio world but you don't see them used in the CB band as often. It is compact, easy to put together, and is very lightweight. www.radiowavz.com/product/sentinel-hex-beam-11-m-single-band/85

    I still have a CPI 300 with matching speaker / power supply, also the FC-70, 2 of the 3 meter version SWR meter 2 Talk Powers and 2 adaptors for the FC-70, Unfortunately the CP-300 is not operational, probably needs a recap. He Mentioned Tram, I owned both the Tram D201 and the CPI 300 in the late 70's still have the Tram as well. I remember the receive on the CPI-300 being really good but that for AM radio which is what most of us were talking back then the TRAM D201 was a real powerhouse on AM with loud clear modulation. Be nice to get that CPI going but I have since moved to the ham world.

    I tried one of these on 2 different radios! It would squeak & squeal. Especially if I inadvertently touch my lips with it. I had to reverse 2 of the solder joints in the connector to make it work on an old Royce Unit. I ordered a "Pro-Tucker" which uses an AA Battery. It came without a connector but there is a little pamphlet indicating what wire is for what. So I connected it up and it works perfectly! I would recommend the Pro Trucker over this one!

    When I was trying to decide what new CB I wanted, I was considering all sorts of things (just like everyone else does). So many reviewers gave great reviews of the President models that I had it boiled down to either the McKinley II FCC, or the George II FCC. Ultimately, I went with the McKinley because I wanted to use it primarily as a base unit and it has a front firing speaker. If I was going for a primarily mobile unit, I’d definitely choose the George. The George has that built in USB port which enables you to charge your phone without causing interference on the radio the way it happens if you plug your phone into the cigarette lighter.

    In 2024 the K-PO- NM-532 is still one of the cheapest 'new' power mics I could find. The Thunderpole website still stocks the NM-532 for £39.99, essentially because it's stood the test of time, proving itself to be a reliable budget power mic. They also stock the slimmer more stylish 'Cobra M-75' power mic at the same price, however I personally prefer the larger squarer NM-532 body with it's front mounted mic gain slider. 👍
