    Anytone 6666 no swing

    How many amps is your power supply? I think you need at least a 12 amp power supply to power that radio.

    Rf Limited echo mics

    SOMEONE BOUGHT A BUNCH OF THEM AND IS POSTING THEM ONE AT A TIME FOR 3 AND 4 TIMES WHAT THEY PAID FOR THEM. THERE IS ONE ON EBAY NOW.

    Don't Pull the Trigger!!!! Anytone 6666

    Maybe a way to cheat Ebay out of money. Ebay's fee works off of a percentage of what the item sells for which doesn't include shipping costs. I don't sell on EBAY so I am not positive of how it works. The price is still high though.

    In search of Palomar SL41

    I bought one of these from Bob's this weekend. I have a few of the old ones somewhere. The older ones squealed like a pig regardless of what I tried. So, they are some where in a box. I hope this one works better.

    Is Lester’s a reputable place?

    More channels than my antenna will work on. Seems like the channels never end when you spin the dial. I am exaggerating about never ending. But it sure seemed that way.

    Is Lester’s a reputable place?

    I have a Galaxy 959 B that he did that I bought like new from someone. It has a never ending expansion kit installed and a few other upgrades. The radio is awesome. Has worked flawlessly for over two years now. I have gotten many compliments every time I used it.

    Galaxy 99 Frequency roll

    I have a Galaxy 99 that when I first turn it on the frequency just keeps rolling until it gets warm and then it will stay on frequency. Can this be fixed and is it a difficult repair?

    Stryker 955

    I can tell you this much. Snake Radio must be popular because Mark Sherman has been doing videos bashing him for months now. From what I have read he specializes in Cobra reconditioning so to say. I have never done business with him though.

    Local Pa shop

    I have bought many radios off DTB Radio and sent him several to be worked on over the years. He does good work and refuses to do any kind of hackery on your radio. If your radio is hacked when you send it in he will insist on undoing any hack work before doing any kind of upgrades you are...

    Your first CB? what year started? any other radio interest?

    My uncle was the cool one in the family. He had a Fanfare 880 and it was around 1980 if I remember right.

    Which CB Shops are still accepting mail-in repairs?

    Tech are not mind readers and require that you tell them what you want done or else they assume you want everything they find wrong fixed. This is the info that DTB radio asks for when you send your radio in for repair. Information that must be included with the radio: Any radios sent in for...

    Galaxy DX-2517........where to begin???

    Hear in New Orleans, everybody talks like they are on the channel 6 super bowl no matter what channel they are on. Most talk to hear themselves talk or to talk over each other. You are lucky to find someone with a good clean sounding radio. With handles like pill test, pill killer,pill crusher...

    Galaxy DX-2517........where to begin???

    Really didn't have any immediate plans to mess with it. I don't need it to be a high wattage radio because I have plenty of amps that do that already. Just needed a good clean talking base radio to get out there and talk to my locals.

    Galaxy DX-2517........where to begin???

    I got one for a good price from an elderly woman. It belonged to her late husband who passed away. It looks like new and really doesn't have anything done to it other than the conversion. It sounds great from what I am told. I use it to talk to my locals mostly. I don't do much talking on SSB...

    Over the years I have picked up 4 nice Grant XL's that for the most part were unmolested. I had to have one limiter re connected. And I was fortunate enough to buy them before people started asking $150 for them raped and pillaged. Funny how people believe that they are worth more with all...

    Which CB Shops are still accepting mail-in repairs?

    Like everything else. It's all about fast money. He won't do one cable because it isn't worth his time to do just one for anyone. If he does a repair? The price will make it worth his time. He tells you plain and clear that you are better off buying his new radios because it is cheaper than him...

    He is a registered sex offender YES. That means that he took a deal. He is still out and doing business. Obviously there wasn't a strong enough case for them to convict him to doing any real time in a jail cell.
