There you go again showing that you know nothing about RF theory and how radio's transmit. No one said that export (10 meter radios so you don't get confused) are off frequency. What we said was you are SPLATTERING OFF FREQUENCY. What that means in terms that you can understand is if your POS radio is doing 15-20 watts BIRD only about 6-7 are on the CORRECT channel that you are talking on. The rest of those garbage watts also known as harmonics are off on 10 meters, 6 meters, 12 meters, and depending on what hack job did your radio even down on 2 meters.
But now say my cobra 29 is doing 10 watts BIRD (which it does), I am getting 9-10 watts on the right channel. MORE WATTS ON THE RIGHT FREQUENCY WILL ALWAYS WIN. That is why you don't see export garbage at a competition. |

Oh my god...can someone explain to grandpappy here what we mean when we say he is not putting all of his watts on the CORRECT frequency....I have no idea how to dumb it down any more than I already have. |
