    I would be curious how the sensitivity and ability to catch signals compares with a lower cost device like a $150 SDRPlay or $300 HackRF

    That was fast, for sure. Definitely faster than Vara HF. BUT, it's not $1,700 faster.

    Flared version is slightly better if you turn the VFO slightly from an angle. They are both very functional and aesthetically pleasing at the same time. It's not cheap, but it's hand made of quality components which should last indefinitely.

    Thanks for the interesting video. Now there is a cheap (free with limited speeds) alternative with speeds up to 7000kb/sec. It is software defined and it is called vara HF. It works even better than the pactor used in your older video.

    How do two scanning stations stay in sync? You guys linked up on 60M each time but was the other station also sending on the other channels? I’m just not entirely clear on how two stations would “find” each other and how each band is tested prior to communications on the chosen band.

    This is one of the most informative videos I've seen yet on NMO mounting in a vehicle. I've seen so many other install videos where no one has touched on there being a specific drill bit for an NMO mount, a plug to cover it up if it's removed and a cap to cover it for car washes and such.Very good info to have, thank you.

    Had same idea. Much better than any other solution in my opinion. Line them with cardboard as an insulator. You do t want your electronics touching metal. Nice thing is no tape is required. The kids fit so tightly and can be opened and closed as needed without stupid metal tape.

    OVer two minutes on qualifying remarks - that is they way it was years ago. Nobody could say anything without fear of being flamed. Today, I think posters now have the attitude of "I do not give a sh*t if I offend you" - which is a bit of relief cus 2 mins of qualifying your remarss is just way too much

    I got my technician license in 1988, but couldn't go any further until the code requirement was dropped. Finally, in 2009, I got my general license, and immediately bought a new 718. I'm still using it, and have no desire to buy an expensive new radio. I'm using it with an LDG IT-100 autotuner, which seems to work fine. What I did do, was buy a non working but beautiful condition Yaesu FT-DX 560 tube radio, and completely rebuilt it. That is now my main home radio, and the 718 is mostly used as a portable. I just turned 65, and doubt I will ever buy another HF radio.
