Hey there,
Just getting back to the CB world after about a 10 year hiatus. Current rig is a cobra 29 tuned by DTB in Carlisle, PA and a Wilson 1k mag mount. The radio talks and listens I have no complaints. However I want side band capability, and after some research I’ve decided on a President McKinley. Ordered through amazon and should be here Thursday. I’m excited.
In my excitement I found a small amp that I thought might pair well with the new radio and bought it as well. The KL60. Now for my question. I saw on a YouTube vid someone had mated a radio and a small amp so they shared a power supply. This is a mod that interests me. I’d like to be able to use the radio in my truck and pull it out and connect to a base setup as well.
I have a radio shop near me that I have used a to calibrate an antenna and re-wire a mic. The tech did a fine job and everything works as it should, but I’m not sure if I’m ready to get out of the friend zone and have him do this work. Is this a huge job that could be easily botched or am I worrying too much?
