  • Some of my 11 Meter QSOs using the Radioddity QT40.
    You may notice that I'm new to CB radio DXing. I am very pleased with this radio so far.
    My Radio Bio:
    I procrastinated getting into Amateur Radio for several years. In November of 2021 I started my journey. With the help of UA-cam and the ARRL License Manuals I passed my Technician/General exams in one sitting.
    By March 2022, I had passed my Amateur Extra exam and was awarded KE8TQZ as a call sign. I immediately filed for a vanity call and submitted my reciprocity to the Republic of the Marshall Islands. In April 2022 I received my vanity call of WV7MS, as well as, my RMI call sign of V73MS.
    From April 2022 thru December 2022 I operated as V73MS from Roi-Namur Island located in the Kwajalein Atoll. What an excellent place to learn the DX side of Ham Radio. I returned back home in January 2023 and have since been on the air from West Virginia as WV7MS.

    Thanks for the video 1984. I as recently in WV, and tried to make contact with anyone, and had no luck. Around Fayetteville, Gully, etc- and only saw one CB Antenna, and one was a PDL 2. I hit your buttons and am following. Maybe next time I visit WV Hillbilly (my Son) I will try again. 73 from Dirty Diaper 21 South Carolina

      Awesome. Haven't had much luck finding ragchews with new people on CB. I'm sure I'll stumble onto them one day.

    Are you running barefoot? I can't seem to get over 12 watts on SSB. Also, my radio squelches when i turn the control all the way counter clockwise, when it should be "wide open".

    • @Stewart0494
      @Stewart0494  5 місяців тому

      Yes! Completely barefoot with a stock radio. I do have the NPC on, power almost all the way up and mic gain at about 2 o clock.

      Why does your display change to "11" when you transmit?
