What is everyone's thoughts on these radios?

antennas Freecell, I have seen many truck drivers with 3 foot Stargunn antennas or even 2 foot Barjan specials. What a mess. The coil or top load does not even come close to clearing the cab and they wonder why they don't receive and transmit well. I am not saying anything bad about...

Big Coil Antennas Thanks Jesse James Dallas for the good information. You bring up some good points. I sell Predators and Monkeys at the store. The drivers and hobbyists like them both. Ben

Cobra Northstar, good to talk to you the other day. Do you know who made or makes the Harley Davidson. Dale, and Dale Jr. Cobra 29s?

Cobra 29 Justin, I've got to agree with you. You really can't go wrong with a Cobra 29 or a Uniden 78. The basic models on up to the ones with weather and backlit. I see them all the time.

Big Coil Antennas Jesse James, Dan also makes a thicker stinger for his dx line. You just need to ask for it when you order the antenna. It can't be used if you order the regular stinger unless one has the hole in the top bored out. Ben

cobra 150 Nomad, Were you able to repair the 150?

Coil Antennas Jesse James, I tried a 12 inch MM-5 and it tuned well on the roof of my pick up truck. I can't really tell any difference between it and my 15 inch Mr. Coily and 12 inch 10K, receive or transmit. I know that some antennas tune better on different vehicles and locations. I have...

50 watt mods Switchkit you make several good points. I really enjoy this forum. Most of the time you get honest answers. Sometimes you don't. I don't claim to know everything but I believe I can make most cbs sound and receive well. I have modified ham radios in the past. Not everything works...

50 watt mods Not all mods work for everyone. We offer a super tune for example for the Cobra 29 and Uniden 78. This is just one way to do it. We change out the final, put in a swing kit, detach one leg of the limiter if the customer asks us to, sell them a rk-56, and add talkback if they want...

cb radios Justin you are correct on several fronts. My only real complaint is the adjacent channel rejection suffered a bit after the receive mods. It is more sensitive and quiet. I thought John Fatori is the owner of MJ Products. His name shows up on some of the shipping labels. I was...

Monkey Made Jesse James, How do you think the Monkey Made compares to the Mr. Coily and 10K?

grant lt We did discuss the switch over the phone after the fact not before. I never received the parts or the road map. In your opinion Ray and the other techs at Galaxy don't know what they are talking about? Is the John your talking about who was a V.P. at Ranger the owner of M.J...

I think people need to know the truth. I will switch to the sound off section. Thank you.

FG Best Justin back to insults because Frank won't let you service your customers properly. If I recall I called FG's morning tech and told him exactly what I wanted done to the radio. Sent a letter along with the radio. FG messed up the radio. I had to send it back. Received it back and still...

Hey Jesse James Dallas, Have you had a chance to test your Mr. Coily antenna? Ben in Florida

Well Justin the Uniden Grant LT you and Frank and the morning tech did for me is dead once again. That cheap switch you guys installed is not longer working. I still can't get over the fact that after your receive mod the adjacent channel rejection is extremely poor. Ray at Galaxy had spoken to...

I replaced my Wilson 5000 mag mount with a Pro Am Tri Mag mount and have been testing it with a 102 stationary, 12 and 17 inch Predator 10K, a 15 inch Mr. Coily, and a 12 inch shaft Monkey Made. All of them, in my opinion, blow the 5000 away in base to mobile and mobile to mobile tests at 1, 3...

What about some of the Uniden/President made radios like the Grant Classic, Jackson, and the 2510/Lincoln series?

I thought the Cobra 29 LTD was a similar chasis. Have you tried looking for a block diagram for that radio?
