Built my first radio when I was 10. Finally became an amateur radio operator in 2003 and in 2010 upgraded to Extra Class. I'm Usually on PSK31 daily @ 7.030.000 or 14.070.000 Baofeng UV-5R I found you can get this to work on the mac with CHIRP and prolific drivers. Use "/dev/cu.usbserial" and all should work fine. Running OS x 10.6.8 I also found that some hubs don't work with this cable. I also use the Nagoya NA-701 female-sma antenna has better gain and very flexible. I bought mine from ebay for about $7.50 shipped. grounding radios: http://www.eham.net/articles/16652 http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_10_22/624260_Modified_cam_tripod_to_portable_antenna_platform__w__8_pics____Discussion_now_about_Emcomm_setup.html http://www.emergencyradiogokit.com/ http://richhand.blogspot.com/2010/04/comm-academy-2010-portable-radio.html http://www.frontpanelexpress.com/ http://seahorsecases.com/ http://losdos.dyndns.org:8080/public/ham/RACES-box.html https://www.zombiehunters.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=103088 https://www.ar15.com/forums/t_10_22/671749_Portable_setup_for_backpack_EMCOMM_box___Update__25mm_ammo_can_v0_5.html |
