    What happened to UNIDEN ??

    A couple of the Uniden models, CB/Sideband and regular 40 channel CB, I believe, had some pretty bad problems with the screen getting very dim or, going out completely. I wonder if they ever got those lined out and working properly? I can't recall exactly which ones but, It might have been the...

    TELL US ABOUT YOUR SETUP

    President lincoln ll, 15ft of LMR-240 to a Wilson 1000 and/or a Sirio 5000. Also switch out with my Galaxy DX 94HP and use both about equal time. Both antennas are mag mounts and both are re-coaxed with LMR-240. (I'm kinda hung up on LMR-240 as it's about the same size as Mini 8 and works very...

    Is resonance really where you get best antenna performance?

    I adjust my antenna to the lowest possible swr, from the radio using the installed coax and forget it. Never had any problems and never fried a radio. And, had several really good talkers.
