Ed in Tx 11-21-2020, 06:17 PM I've had a Tram 1410 up for 15-20 years. Good quality. They make the 1411 with the vertical whip and lower freq xmit range.

I've heard of Tram before and will look into them... zeno 11-22-2020, 05:39 PM Tram built super high end CB's & were in Winnisquam N.H. Right beside lake Winnipesaukee, not where you would expect an electronics mfr ! I would guess a tiny building lot is 500-1,000 K now. Anyhows they had a relationship with Diamond of Japan who built there small CB's. Big bases were still US made. I bet the Tram antennas are built by Diamond now. Nice to see an old name pop up again. 73 Zeno:smoke: LFOD ! Hawkwind 12-08-2020, 05:14 PM Thanks for the helpful replies. After reading reviews of the Tram I went with a Diamond instead. Plus I'll get the correct coax with the correct connectors for the first time... Hawkwind 01-31-2021, 11:56 AM I'm all set! Yes, the scanner is a bit of an over-kill I wish I still had my PRO-2006. Antenna is a Diamond D130NJ with 50 feet of LMA 400 coax cable. Scanner is a Uniden SDS200... Hawkwind 01-31-2021, 12:04 PM I meant to use this image of the antenna... |
