    Have you purchased ham gear because of this site? What was it?

    I don't think I've bought any ham gear with out checking it here first, but the better point is I know if the reviews here are not good I won't be wasting my money on it. My buys, Johnson Valiant, Hallicrafters SX-28 SX-42, ATLAS 210X, 350XL, Swans, Politronics, Heathkit.....You get the idea!

    FAQ/Knowledge base "How do I...?" Look here first!A.K.A. "The Sticky"

    Morning all, I just wanted to throw an idea out there to the moderators. I belong to a diesel truck site that takes the most frequently asked questions with complete answers from the members and the best “How To’s” and they place it in “The Sticky”. That is then a permanent link at the...

    Texas Ranger CB (TRE-966FFC)

    I was looking at Galaxy radios and ran across the fact that Galaxy uses Ranger boards in their CBs. If the parts are the same it adds the Texas Ranger TRE-966FFC to the selection. The Texas Ranger has a 6 digit frequency counter built in so there is no need for an external one like on the...

    I dug out my fathers old Hallicrafters S-40B last night and it still works like a dream. I would like to put up a long wire antenna in the attic. The attic is T shaped.

    My Ramcharger has a 4”x10” speaker hole in the center of the dash that is empty. The stereo speakers are in the doors and sidewalls. I was thinking about using this for a CB speaker location. I have read a few threads off some sites but I'm not finding much. Has anyone done this? Does the CB...
