Texas Star DX350.
Works great w/ no issues and is in pretty good shape
Has some minor wear on the front by the DX350 and the Texas Star but this does not affect performance in the slightest.
Many have asked what the RCA plug in is for, I bought this from a friend, I never used it and...
Hmm
Didn't know anyone was starting an argument... I don't want a scientific answer just an answer from a regular CB'er in here...
Don't know why u think u'd be starting an argument.
What do you guys think is better
A Low Dead Key with a lot of swing say 2DK Swing 45 or more DK then the swing?
