Finally got my Uniden Tempo 2020 anchor rig on the air. So far so good. This radio was designed by Yaesu for Tempo/Henry radio and made by Uniden. It has a Uniden label on the back and the front meter has a Uniden label. Had to add the missing 11 meter "receive only" crystal that I got from JAN and add a jumper on the back of the band select wafer switch to get her to talk. This unit is very straight and has an overall clean look to it. I put a Bogen MBS-1000A high impedance desk mic on it for now. This rig has a lot of adjustments that I'm still familiarizing myself with. I sure do like the Hybrid design that uses a 12BY7A tube to drive two 6146B finals. Here's some info on it if you're curious: www.eham.net/reviews/detail/727 |

It drifts a little on warm up, but it is a great radio for sideband. Night Ranger |

Got to run the 2020 on CCR last night and got some good audio reports. It appears to have a good receive but is much narrower than a regular CB radio. If any one was off frequency I had to adjust the clarifier but would almost cut out the operators that were on frequency . I was able to pull out distant stations way better this way though.
I'll have to post some pics. I think I need to have them hosted somewhere? Any sugestions for a decent picture hosting site? I'm used to just being able to up load pictures from the computer to a site.
