Any HAM Operators Got Rigs on Their Hogs??
I know the touring bikes have CB's or provisions for them, but as a licensed HAM operator (Tech- KI4IBS) just wondering if any fellow HAMS have done away with the CB and added their amatuer equipment (or kept the CB and added to).
I have found a website for motorcyling HAM operators (can remember the address off hand) so I know you are out there.
So sending out a CQ, CQ, CQ

I usually carry my talkie but my headset gave out and I need to replace it. On previous bikes I have installed an antenna for 2m/440. I need to do that to this one someday.

Cycling is dangerous enough without that distraction - just my 2 cents.

But there's a little voice in my head that says it would be cool to see a HF Hustler whip sticking up from a tourpak.

Been working on an idea with my FT. Maybe I'll get to it someday.

Havent even considered it but it might be interesting to do. I dont think you can reprogram the Stock radio in the Ultra for 10 meters though it would be interesting to try. I am sure HK programmed the presets for the CB (11m) so that would make retuning a real trick.
