    My turn.............can't resist. In honor of Michael Jacksons death JC Penney will have all boys pants half off. And..... In honor of Michael Jackson passing away, McDonald's in introducing the MJ burger......50 year old meat stuck between 10 year old buns. I'm through.

    16 pill

    Are my eyes playing tricks on me or is that a 18 transistor amp? There appears to be two drivers on the left unit. BC

    America,

    If you can read, Thank a teacher. If you read in English, Thank a veteran. Many people sacrificed and gave all they had so we could have the freedoms we now enjoy. Some made the ultimate sacrifice and gave their lives in defense of our country and way of life. Veterans and all members of the...

    New Coily Enforcer 1 to 1 At 30 Ohms

    You'd need a lot of coax for an Antler gutter mount antenna then wouldn't you? BC

    New Coily Enforcer 1 to 1 At 30 Ohms

    I pre tune each and every antenna. 1.0.1-1.1.1 Does not get any better than that! 1.1.1 out the box and 50ohm! Copy and paste from the Mr Coily website. Like someone else has posted, send it back or call them and find out what the deal is. I don't fall in the crowd that thinks coax length...

    TX on all 40 at the same time???

    Get a cheap walkie talkie and attach two six volt batteries to it. Put it in a plastic bag and tape the key down on it. Place it somewhere close to his house like under it, in a culvert by it, in a tree, etc. If the FCC has visited him already another call should get results. With the...

    getting more out of a 1x4

    Replace it with a 2x8!! I agree..........check it with their meter. Move the amp into their vehicle or change to a higher power radio..dual final. Are they other locals using the same setup as far as a radio and drive? BC

    Yaesu 101E/Dentron Clipperton-L

    If you are going to use it on SSB you will have a good setup. You won't overdrive the Clipperton and the Yakamo will give excellent service in that mode. If you plan on using it for AM you will need to get an AM filter for it if it does not have one already installed. That or either...

    Roof Mounted!!

    Those small beehive and heavy stud mounts are not the way to go with a large antenna like a 102" whip. Go with a ball mount and never look back. They will take what you want to throw at them unlike the others. I have smoked both of the ones mentioned above. Nice looking setup regardless...

    Is this a Golden Falcon???

    It is a Golden Falcon 750. There are several threads either on this site or the CBTricks forum with info on it. You should be able to find them by doing a search. BC

    D&A 12 TUBER PROBLEM

    I'm wondering if maybe one of the tubes has a "saggin" grid causing this? I know it mostly happens on tubes mounted horizontal but could explain this noise. Just enough slack in it to produce a small arc while transmitting. When testing tubes and doing a short test I always thump the tube to...

    Cobra 29 - R56 smoking

    The final is shorted causing R56 to overheat. Replace the final along with the resistor....20 or 22 ohm, 1/4 watt, if I remember correctly. Don't forget the ferrite bead!! BC

    D&A 12 TUBER PROBLEM

    That is a bias adjustment. Unless it is bad (arcing internally) it should not cause the problem you are having or at least I would think. Tune it for max output on high power and then back it down 10% or so. I really don't think that tuning is the problem that you have. Something else is...

    D&A 12 TUBER PROBLEM

    I think I would first check all the coax connections...anywhere there is PL259 to make sure they are tight and making good contact. Sounds like a strange problem. One thing to try....when it is doing it put your hand on the amp at the same time to see if it goes away. Maybe it is RF sneaking...

    D&A 12 TUBER PROBLEM

    Hmmmm, in both low and high power? I take it you do not hear it but everyone else does? And it does not do it with the amp on standby either, correct?
