I've been trying to find out what the very first solid state radio was , and I'm having a hard time finding any information about it . Does anyone know who , or what the very first solid state radio was ?

I checked D18 through D21 and they're all in good shape . So any ideas as to what I should check next ? Doesn't this radio have a potentiometer that can adjust the receive for the AM side ?

Thanks Nomad , I'll check those out real quick .

Hi Everyone , I have a really nice Ranger AR-3500 , the 30 watt version . And it works , and preforms as it should , except the receive on AM is EXTREMELY loud . Even with the RF gain turned almost all the way down , stations that were already loud to me , sound really garbled , and other...

Also , I don't find a lot of information about them online . I basically just find Browning Golden Eagles that are for sale , or videos of people talking on them , but very little information . I thought there would be more information about them online with as popular as they are .

Thanks for the heads up on the Mark 4 ... I'm actually leaning more towards a Mark II , to be honest . So any info on those would be greatly appreciated. I'm very familiar with buying older radios . I have quite a few old timers around here , both tube and solid state . I love the older...

Thank you Eldorado

how do I find that video on Youtube Kahuna ? I have a Randy and I'd like to check it out .

Hi everyone , I've been looking at the Browning Golden Eagle Mark III , IV , and V radios for many years . I always wanted one of them , but never jumped at the chance to grab one ... partially because I like to know that if I'm spending a lot of money on a radio , that it...

to answer the question that was originally asked in this post ... I've been making videos for Youtube making sure that people know that CB radio is not dead , and to help those that are new to CB find good equipment , and learn more about CB radio . I'm not sure if posting the link is allowed ...

I've already got that kit Mike . In fact I ordered it from you . :)

I have an old Cobra 2000 GTL that means a lot to me . It was once my grandmothers , and I inherited it after she passed a few years ago . It sat for a few years before she passed , and then it sat for a few more years before I inherited it . I did run it for awhile without any issues , but then...

I can "Try" recording it , and posting it . It's nothing like street lights , or transformers . This starts every morning at the exact same time (8:30 am) , and ends every night at the exact same time (7:45 pm) . Which rules out street lights . It's timing is so precise that you can literally...

Look for "Raccoon's Radio Ranch" on Youtube

The FCC sent me a reply to my 1st report on the interference saying thanks but no thanks . So I submitted a 2nd report informing them that I'm a Ham operator . What the noise level is at , and that if there were any emergency traffic , this level of interference would make it impossible to...

I do have Polish ancestry , maybe I should consider relocating ... lol

You're right , I do live in a "weird country" ... I live in America , the land of "push the blame onto the other guy" .

I notified the FCC immediately , they blew it off the very next day after I filed the report ... and they canceled the ticket in less than 24 hours .

On May 26th at around 5 pm I started getting 8-9 pounds of noise on my radios receive . It goes from the 40 meter band all the way to the 2 meter band . It starts at 8 am every morning and it goes on until 8 pm every night . It's exact , like something's on a timer . There's never a break from...

I posted this previously , but I believe I posted it in the wrong area ... so I'm reposting it here . I have a Heathkit SB-102 that I run with the HP-23(B) power supply . The SB-102 has had some updating done to it on the inside ... but not everything has been updated . I've talked about this...
