    Is this the new Stryker SSB?

    Above my pay grade, and i never saw it so i honestly don't know. But i do know that the pic above was specifically taken at the request of another forum, and it's obvious it was stolen and cropped so not to give credit where it is due

    new cobra 29s

    They don't QUITE do what the older ones do...but for your average user no one will ever see the difference...as far as the display, mine has been turned on 24-7 on the base for over 2 months and is working fine

    John Boy Tube Amplifiers??

    Junk...i would go into why but i've had these arguments elsewhere and i'll just keep the reasons to myself...but compare the insides of one of his amps to a QUALITY amp built on sound RF theory and youll see the difference in the details

    Destroyer Amps 400 amp Motormaul

    as long as pillplopper didn't fool with the MM any the MM should hold the 16 fine... as he just buys them from either Tony @FB or Carl @ XF anyway (ON EDIT...i have seen ones he relabeled, but after visiting his website i see they are stripped down copies, i'd be happy to show ya what a better...

    a fatboy amp?

    you are correct..but this particular amp has one in it so i was just adding some information to the discussion if the OP worried about class of amplifier he'd be looking at texas stars and not something claiming to do 700W at voltage most guys don't run anyway

    a fatboy amp?

    Fatboy case but he sells cases to half the universe.. wire coloring isn't right for FB's (this info i got from a couple of Tony's builders) Nothing really wrong with a 1446 driver, it has the same output as a 2290 but requires less drive to achieve it (i.e.higher gain) so something like a Cobra...

    Has Anyone Tried These...

    Homer's Qv4k

    I think Shockwave and Marconi are on to something in regards to your situation Homer....the only other thing i can think of that might possibly affect things is IIRC you wrapped the hoop (pvc or HDPE i think)in foil tape...this alone may not be the answer but maybe in combination with some of...

    your favorite CB myth , lies and legends .

    true but remember SWR is a RATIO my favorite along these lines is installing a LPF reduces output power..my typical response is "no moron, it shows what you're really doing minus happy meter harmonics"
