      The military air band 225-400 is what I’m after. For the civil air band, 108-137, they barely use that.

      BTW, looking at the FTM-300DR, it does receive this band, along with the civilian air band (108-137MHz). Actually all of the Yaesu...

      No, there's no HRO close to me, but there's a DX Engineering store up in Ohio about 3 hours from here. Considering their quick shipping...

      Been doing some more research, from what I've seen, I'm really liking the Yaesu FTdx-10. It's a bit more pricey than the FT710 or...

      I see that Sig Solar has a Black Friday sale on their batts. So their $1200 Lifepower4 v2 batt is going for just under $1100. But with...

      Yeah.Those vendors don't talk about the cloudy weather too much when they sell their products, so we users find all sorts of problems.

      If it's cloudy, my MPPT gets stuck at 90-100V and will stay there. If it gets a brief burst of sunlight it'll get up to operating...

      The house and everything electric is built for it. There are no 'smart' electronics - traditional light switches only. All LED lighting...

      My shop system will be 100% written off so any power it produces or stores is free. Does it pay? Start a solar consulting or install...

      I make my own diesel fuel in summer which I use throughout winter. It's pretty efficient: I only run the generator once a week or so to...

      Sure - never said it would have an ROI. I'm off-grid because I want to be (my off-grid system did cost less than bringing the grid...

      So what do you do this time of the year for your power since you're off grid with little or no sun? Generators?

      I'll make a picture once I cleaned up the place a bit - it's a bit of a mess right now. The connections are rather simple: just cables...
