Hello from Colorado

[prc-104]

Hi All,
Yep, I'm up here in the high country.
Not much to say about myself, I've seen the elephant and heard the owl.
AND, I can't type worth spit without having to correct misspellings!
Warm regards, to all,
/john

I enjoyed Colorado when I lived there in the late 90's

Hi John!

If you are not already, try using the Firefox web browser. You can set it up to point out mis-typed / mis-spelled words as you type them.

See you around.

Hi, and I hope you can give us all a tour of a PRC-104 soon!I'm especially interested in hearing about what antennas you use when using it.

Prc-104?

Sure, glad to help.
I run the PRC-104 and the PRC-138 series radios.
For semi-fixed, I use an AS-2259 NVIS antenna.
For mobile, I use the vehicle wirewound whips, newer series than the GRC-193 one but don't remember the nomenclature.
For fixed, I use the AS-2259, a screwdriver, a folded dipole and sometimes a screwdriver.


For good information on the PRC-104 check out:

He's a wonderful reference

Good radio. that's why the marine "teams" still prefer it to the newer ones.
(That's also why so darn many of them are broken and salt encrested LOL )

Welcome from Florida. I saw the elephant, back when the PRC-25 was state of the art.
