Is the thunderpole tx worth it ?

The Thunderpole has export mode, the PNI doesn't.

You know what Dave, I was wondering the same after I ordered one yesterday ???

But looks a handy bit of kit (excuse the pun) I could of saved a few bob and got the pni escort with car adaptor but what the hell. :thumbup:

I'll weigh up the pros and cons of widebanding.

Nothing quite like getting a new radio to play with.

My first New rigs were the realistic trc1010 handheld and the TRC 1005 . There's a certain buzz opening up a new box

With the Thunderpole you can use it on 10m so that's a big plus.
