I LUV NY. If you can't find it there it doesn't exist. This guys got some reputation. Does he actually do mods and repairs? If so are they really done out of a van?
I hear quite a few stations on Channel 28 AM with setups that sound like they're operating an AM radio station. Many are aloof when asked what they're running and others are straight up. There's so many different descriptions of what they're using I was just wondering if somebody can simplify it...

It wasn't the pl 259 at the end of my LMR 400. The double male connector that attaches my mfjj 915 RF choke to the antenna was one turn loose. I'm assuming that one turn left the center pin not making good contact with the antennas PL 239. I think it was like that for...
Between the choke and antenna I went with a double ended conetor (no coax) so I'm gonna replace the pl 259 at the coax antenna connection. The coax is lmr 400. Not the ultra flex. The coax is quite heavy and, maybe the heavy wind and weight of the coax itself looosened the 259. That would...
The last couple of weeks I've noticed the receive on my Uniden Madison acting peculiar. It's fine for one moment then it makes a kind of swishing sound as the needle on the meter drops down around 2 s units and as a result the receive gets quiet. I noticed this happens when it's windy outside...
After a year of making dx contacts and the twice a week local rag chew, I find myself enjoying listening more then communicating. I use a uniden Madison on SSB and an fs 2340 on AM. The Sonar actually recives very nice for a CB radio. The Madison also receives nicely but not as good as the fs...
My (uniden) Washington and Madison both make that poping sound when changing channels and mode. It comes through the speaker. I don't think this is an issue. I think it's the way these rigs operate. I could be wrong. I'm hoping others weigh in as I'm curious if that happens to all the madisons...
Do all amateur amplifiers have a band selector switch? although I've only seen mono band amplifiers made for VHF/2 meters and such I thought there might be or have Ben mono band HFand or UHF amplifiers. Just curious. 73
Bicycle Barney. He would hang out on channel 15 AM. He would get more erratic as time went on and the beer cans piled up. He and Arttie Windjammer would go at it hours at a time. Brooklyn New York 1970s

I've never heard or talked on the Madison with the 858 in it, but I can say that my uniden Madison 8719 hears very nicely for a stock CB radid(AM/SSB). When I say stock the audio and receive sections have never been...
