    Rust Prevention

    I have been using a solution called GALVAPREP to treat any bare iron or steel. I can't remember the brand, but will snap a pic when I'm in my shop today. Like so many products (i.e. WESLEY's Bleeche Wite) may not be available now because of EPA regs. - J.J. 399

    Old School vs New School CBs: Which do you like ??

    I bought a Cobra 139XLR new in 1978, and ran it for years.The best receive (with mods), loud clear audio, and super expandibility. Best of all, the Service manual w/ schematic made repairs and mods easy. I've always said it was the best type-accepted CB radio ever made. However, after reading...

    The DX Gods were against me today. I was planning on hitting the shack about noon when an midday thunderstorm rolled in. It finally blew over, but during the storm a lightning hit took out a fuse on a main line feeding our area. So no power. Being Sunday, they didn't get it up and running until...

    Donkey Stomper

    My 8-pill compettition amp does 1500 watts @13.8 VDC. It will do more, but why push it. If I can't get out with 1.5KW, I'd better quit.
