<div>G'day Paul, I've used the Puxing 888 and a Feidaxin with both a TT3 and a OT1+ with good results given the power available. Usually only used when camping to track wandering harmonics or announce a special event like JOTA.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The Puxing seemed less troubled by stray RF - sometimes the Feidaxin would go into a Tx/Rx loop.</div>

am looking for a lower powered transmitter, the pux does 5 watts on hi,<br>1 watt low power.<br><br>Or are there any other radios (handheld) that people have used that work<br>not to bad.<br><br>I have been using some old FM900s' on it and they work very well, just<br>
have to find the correct places to pluck audio from, easy.<br>Only thing is they use just under 1 amp in standby (rx) remove the head<br>make it into a local, and you can almost half the current consumption,<br>and still have 45 watts bursting out the PA.<br>
The only problem is for extended time when the mobile is not driven can<br>flatten batteries with in a day, winding the output back to a nice 20<br>watts extends the time to flat but.<br><br>Having a hand held device could be useful if not just in the car.<br>
<br>Just thinking out loud, just that the tinytrak FA radio does not receive .<br><br>I have 2 TT4s and they are great units.<br><br>cheers all<br>Looking forward to the responses.<br><br>Paul<br>VK5VCO<br><br><br><br>--<br>
