    Prevention of theft?

    Is there any product or mount out there to prevent theft of an cb radio when it's mounted in a big rig? KW's are strapped down to the dash, Peterbilt's hang down from the headliner by the mounting bracket. I was just wondering if there was such a product or locking device out there that would...

    Receive / Background Noise

    I'm using a Galaxy 33 HML in a 2000 Pete. It talks good and I can receive good until I turn on the AM/FM radio. Then I get some background noise in the 33 and sometime it's like the sound of wind blowing through my 33, I know it's weird sounding but it's true, plus it's like my receive is cut in...

    Different Rules & Regulations?

    Does the state of West Virginia have different rules and regulations than the rest of the country? Not mentioning no names but this one guy bugs the crap out of everybody with his key-ups and his noise toys on one certain cb channel everyday. When you ask him to quit he replies that this is...

    Mic repair?

    Most of them just a broken wire or two. I've tried soldering but I just can't get the hang of it. If I could I would. What kind of solder would I have to have? Maybe if I just keep practicing and have more patience maybe I could do it!

    I have several mic's most of them are Rk56's and they all need fixing. Does anyone know of a good mic repairman? I know most radio tech's probably don't like fooling with or repairing them but I just can't throw away good money and buy new ones.

    Co-phasing?

    I drive a '00 Peterbilt 379 with sleeper. If I were to use two antennas, and they were both tuned for say like 1.2 give or take 1, would I still have to have an 18' co-phase coax to make this work? What I'm trying to ask is will a shorter co-phase coax work or do I have to use an 18' co-phase...

    Magnum S-9 Upgrade?

    I just didn't know, that's why I asked! I'll probably go with the SX175 power cabinet from magnum. Maybe even wait for the 300+ cabinet and see what happens. I have a Texas Star DX-350 that I was planning on using in my pickup with an S-9 but I was also planning on putting an S-9 into a...

    Magnum S-9 Upgrade?

    Has anyone tried the SX-175 Black Magnum Power Cabinets for the Magnum S-9's? Or can you just take a 2 pill and put it inside of a Magnum S-9? What would be the consequences? Would it help it or hurt it? Included Parts: Aluminum Top Cabinet and Bottom Cabinet/Heatsink 175+ Watt Final...
