Is there a way to connect this repeater to a base station like a Btech 50v2 ?

I am very impressed with the range considering the altitude and rock wall drops. I didn't think you would have any signal ...but, it was really strong. Great job and thanks for the new videos you have been busy!😮 I have driven through that area many times and I have been meaning to check out Providence Canyon.

Very interesting explaination and demo test ! It's really impressive that you're having so good results with simple Nagoya NA-771 antennas !

The usable range of that antenna must be being extremely small

Muchísimas gracias!!.. excelente. Saludos desde Lima Perú😉

Have you ever gotten your SWR Matched ?

Is channel 19 official channel for traveling ?

Just remember a dummy load also has an SWR of 1:1. SWR is not a measure of antenna effectiveness and efficiency. Antennas that are shorter than 1/4 are less efficient than a 1/4 antenna. Even without the most efficient you will likely work someone.

I been wanting to get myself a New Model, i have one thats over 20 years old and i am sure its not up to par. Your video persuaded me to place an order .. Thanks...and Welcome to the USA.

Just remember, GMRS requires an Fcc license here in the United States. Family Radio Service does not, and the radios are very different. The Gmrs license costs 35 dollars and covers your immediate family. That license is good for 10 years.

Very good video. Filled with a choc full of information and great insight. Thank you for creating and sharing. I appreciate it. I Subscribed and looking forward to more informative and helpful videos.

Great job as usual! Enjoy your videos!

Great stuff man! Good to see you back on YOU TUBE!

I just got the no:37 sheath from ottoza. Comparing to all my other leather products (sheaths holster belts wallets tool-bags ect) the leather smells and feels fake or not top grain. The leather doesn’t wet form well at all. Its super flexible and thin and the point on my esee5 has already stabbed through. Iv only had it for 4 days…. The snaps are terrible. I mean for 29$ you get a cool looking beginner grade sheath but i cant see it being practical in a hard use application like real world survival or bushcraft. I have two carl thomas leather sheaths that were the same price and they are solid bullet proof leather sheaths.

Would these kinds of "home made" ground planes work with a CB radio also? I have a President New Virginia CB radio antenna for car roofs, but could use it on my balcony also with these ground planes. Have you stopped using your CB (President McKinley?) and 5' Firestik antenna you used to have on your balcony (I don't see it there anymore) and now you're only using GMRS? -- BR

Great review

ok many thanks for the video !!!

Hi, does the antenna have any problems if it gets wet from rain ? Thx from Italy

Exactly the info i needed thank you

Thank you for making these videos. I find them enjoyable & useful. Looking forward to your range test videos. Have a blessed day.

Hello, Your SWR's may be high. This can cause the mike to squeal.

Very helpful thank you. What watch is on your wrist in the video. Thank you..

Thank you so much happy to see our product on UA-cam

Hello i subscribed to your very informative channel today. I will purchase similar equipment based on your recommendations. My purpose is to stay in touch with my family in case the grid ever goes down. I want a base unit and a mobile unit to call base.

Nice Colorado...love the rare color. I have Satin Steele 2022 LT and looking for radio mount ideas. Thanks for sharing!

What happened? You stoped making video`s

Thank you so much for making such an awesome and informative video! Hello from Toronto, Canada!

Thank you for this

this is a really good and helpful video. Thanks for posting it.

Out of curiosity, you weren't able to use a stainless steel 9 ft whip antenna from a window? That's our go to here in NYC for apartments, 9 ft whip on a spring coil & mounted usually from a window guard. Performs great when hung straight outward. Thanks for the video.

Putting an antenna against a wall or having any obstacles near it will affect the antennas receive and transmission, with a ground plane that doesn't have a 360 around the antenna will make the antenna directional, the antenna you have is is for a vehicle but even if you mount it roof hight with clearance around you will find its performance much better, ideally a good home base antenna would be a Silver Rod mounted as high as possible on the roof of your home.

Can this be use for GMRS antenna?

I purchased one myself about 2 years ago, and never put it together. Now I will, thanks for the inspiration. 21 S.C. Old Radio Night

Please speak de English 😂😂😂😂

CB is the best, for me. Thanks for the video. I hit the like and other buttons. Have a happy Thanksgiving 21 S.C. Old Radio Night

Si puedo usar una máquina pqeña para afilar cuchillos

Thanks I'm doing this right now out on yard first-time since 1979 1980 base set up.. I'm trying to set swr I have the Siro 27 gp 5/8 and Realistic TRC -419 but will get a ssb I hope soon

I live here on Long Island I started out with GMRS there’s a Repeater 10 miles from me. I hit that full quiet that brings me out 20 miles. I still hit that Repeater the club. Ibelong to has three repeaters on Long Island so I can talk within a 100 mile circle With my five w Hand held

i have the same antenna in my attic it works very good i get out about 5 miles and can shoot skip a good distance

I like it that’s what I’ve done for a while but I like the way you got hooked up in your car cause I never thought about using the thing for your pop holder which is my vans they’re cheap made but I thought well man I can make one of those out of wood nice nice I’m from Indiana and Crawfordsville CB handle shep 73 Nice set up nice set up I’m down at night like it

cool setup!

I'm wondering if it might be possible to change the antenna with another firestik 6 or 7 ft antenna to increase reception range.

Magnet antennas are great but you need something that will stick to the magnet strongly, groundplane doesn't really matter as much as getting something ferrous enough for the magnet to have a strong bond with. Otherwise you'll barely get any power out.

Haha I saw your review on amazon. Nice that someone finally made a picture and video of this antenna. It was hard to find much details about it.

I like that 51 inch telescope. I keep that one in backpack with me too, I have a cigar holder I use to keep it in as a case so it don't get bent but also use the 16 inch as well, it's really good when walking around so I don't accidentally bend telescope on anything. If you hook it up with new President Randy II handheld radio it increases the range even more than the other handhelds for some reason. Really good radio.

That’s a good idea for ham radio operators too. Good job to get on the air.

Wow increíble video, no espera encontrar algo relacionado a esta lámpara en español, muchas gracias
