Seems like since bigger transistors got less expensive than tubes all of the CBer's have gone to 12v amps. You can't buy most of the tubes, that the cheap old linears were constantly burning up, at reasonable prices anymore. Sounds like you probably should avoid the whole area. If he could...

Meter I'd try to avoid buying any tools if I were you....if you decide to stay with 2 way radio, ham radio tools always better. What is not an experiment, it that for AM a quality power mike is a usually a good investment but a good Omni base antenna about thirty five feet(11 meters? Aint that...

While were on the subject, check the SWRs between the radio and the amp.........."They" used to make a drop resistor the went between the two but "they" wanted a lot of money..... .......what I have done before, is tweak the radio out as I usually would and add a bunch of drop resistors to...

28 is morning roll call Every morning, the local folk have been having roll call. Try not to shoot any skip from 7:55AM til 8:10AM. As any skip shooter knows, during that time frame, the lecture about the latant and hallucinogenic effects of Geritol, on a bunch of retired people with sand...

That amp is so pretty, I'd be terrified of messing it up. You should call Dave and ask him. Try and keep it original. DAVEMADE .com - Home For those of you that were wondering how that all works. When I built amps before, we generally decided on a bias voltage during the design and...

If they don't get the message after that one, try a AR15. Donno Booty...seems that improving that desighn would involve using good aluminum...that was the real problem with the vector, they didn't survive. 7075 is at least two time if not three times stronger that the architectual crap they...
