    Take the extra coax and run it tightly around a 3” diameter PVC pipe, this will act as a choke and help mitigate your RF noise you are hearing. Look up “Ugly 1:1 RF Choke”. Another idea I just had, make sure your extra coax isn’t laying near any electrical wires or components as the braid...

    My mention of Family was general and not specifically aimed at you… While the UV5R is popular, a lot of people don’t realize Baofeng makes several radios… the worst of such is the ever popular UV5R series. I have. UV9G on order to test… I’m pretty sure it’s going to go with the rest of my...

    Servicing the BA1356 isn’t very hard… I would check the lubricant level and condition at a minimum… the BW1356 uses Ford Type F transmission fluid… so if it is brown and/or smells like bacon… change it… if it looks red, the fluid is probably still good.

    Yes you can record a track, but you can’t create a track… two different things. You create a track to fallow, before you go and record the track

    No the expedition tier is not GAIA. You still need another mapping source to create GPX files to load into OB1 at this time.
