Wow...that brings back memories. That Sabre was the third radio I've owned. I think I was 14 when I bought it brand new. It was way cooler than the Royce it replaced.

Because there are so many HOA's now, the number of base stations will continue to fall IMO.

I will try it. Mine is really loud, but it sounds more like air instead of friction noise.

It's not a muffin. It's a round motor with an airplane propeller style fan on it.

I want to replace the LOUD fan in my amp. What would be the best type and size/spec to go with? I'm assuming it's 12volt...correct? Schematic: http://cbtricks.com/Amp/thunderbolt/305/graphics/thunderbolt_305_sch.pdf

I honestly never knew that anyone made a "legitimate" 10 meter only amp back in the day. I thought all of those amps (like my Thunderbolt 305) were just sidestepping the laws so CBers could buy a cheap amp that required low drive and had a SSB/AM switch. My mistake.

Aren't all CB amps considered "Home-Brew" anyway?

Incredible! You must own most of the Demco's left in existence

Will do. The new roof should go up in 2 weeks. I'm trying to find one of those fancy analyzers around here to make this easier, but I've had no luck so far.

Cool. I thought I may have wasted my money on something again. I'm putting a new roof on the pad in about a week and decided to scrap the Astroplane clone for one of these.

I just recieved my antenna & the manual shows it to be 19' high. I've read this thread a few times and I have to admit it's way over my head. My question is: Will I be able to dial this thing in on 11 meters? I just run a Tram D201A, so the "broad banded" thing isn't important. I just want low...

It's the final in a Tram D201.

WTF is that supposed to mean? Sounds like you shit your pants.

My bad. Thanks for clearing that up.

It's not a he...it's a she.

I wonder what this baby is worth? 15kw linear amplifier for sale

The thing has had virtually no use! It's as if it went bad from sitting if that's possible.

Somebody recommended that I use this one and cut down the shaft. I guess that's what I'm going to do. I hope this pot lives longer than the POS that is in this thing. 10K-Ohm Linear-Taper Potentiometer - RadioShack.com

Thanks...I have that schematic, but am not educated in electronics. The variable power pot doesn't work anymore and I want to replace it with a rotary switch that will accept the stock knob to keep her looking mint. I was looking at this switch, but am not sure if it is suitable for this...

Yes I do, but right now my Tram is acting up and will need to go in for repairs. I will be sending it in January after the X-Mas package rush.
