Where's the Astro Spectra?

Nice!

What's the bottom radio below the MCS2K? Is it just an MCS with different keycaps? It almost looks like it only has 4 buttons below the display, instead of 6..

[Edit: Ahah. Micom, I should pay more attention to the thread!]

The VHF Astro is the overhead mic the radio is mounted in the overhead. The radio below the MCS 2000 is a Motorola Micom 2e HF radio. I want to install a Motorola Syntor X 9000 low band for 6 meters when I can find one that is clean. I just bought an MCS 2000 800mhz radio to install also.

Very cool, inside view reminds me more of my pilot house boat than a
SUV. Lotsa fiberglass and straight glass.

I use 2 HF antennas my primary antenna is a 12 ft military whip in conjunction with the micom tuner. I normally run the whip at the 9 ft level. I need the fast switching of the auto tuner for ALE operation. The secondary antenna is a High Sierra. This antenna gives maximum preformance plus I can run my 500 watt amplifier which the motorola tuner can not handle.

David,

Very nice install....I have a MICOM and really think its a great HF radio. I have the combination antenna tuner / antenna from Motorola and it works great with the radio. How did you mount your antenna tuner and antenna. Is the other HF antenna that your using a screwdriver type antenna???

Thanks,

N9CZV · Post by **N9CZV** » Fri Feb 11, 2005 8:41 am

I mounted the tuner right under the whip The whip is mounted on the roll bar. I can send you a pic if you like. Yes the other antenna is a screw driver.
