A couple Ukraine soldiers got bored and hooked a Cobra 29 up to the old OTH Radar "Woodpecker." They were upset that some guy in New Mexico was calling the "Window Lickers, so they maxed out the power to shut down all bands that they could. They shut down 700-800 Mhz.

You know it. I will admit it yesterday planning the base antenna rebuilt and getting more consistent power for the amp. It was like cell phones, we don't need no cell phones. I can set anyone important to me with a CB radio for their vehicle, just from the personal stock out in the garage...

At the moment I am pleased no one is trying to sell me a Stryker radio with the magic New Mexico Desert Dust from the Lone Wolf Winnebago on Channel 19.

Add so more. I Miss... -The "General protection Fault" -"Divide By Zero Error." -C:\\ -Which way text based adventure games. -45 rpm records -Neighborhood old ladies talking on CB with a bigger antenna and kicker than --most local guys around town. -Only three TV networks and a couple local...

I am having a really crappy last few days. I bumped this thread... I am going to start again. I Miss local police offices that say, "Mister, you are really drunk. I better follow you home to make sure you get home safely." Kind hearted strippers...That are women. Drunks talking on Channel...

Not to hijack the thread or anything. I remember listening to BBC World Radio Service back in the 1980s at my fathers hunting camp in PA. This is going to be a blast from past. The SW radio was a generic Japanese manufactured combination 5 inch B&W TV, cassette AM/FM/SW radio, single mono...

I really like the waterfall display, but can it play Super Mario Brothers?

Sparky, put the uppers and lowers in a GE 40 Channel years ago. I forget the exact model, but it was the one with the big meter like a Galaxy. Same PLL 02A, it worked well, You will have to follow the channel map for switch setting. It was fun, until the final finally gave up. It was the...

If this is beating a already dead horse processed into cheap dog food I apologize. Has anyone noticed FM traffic being appearing with any regularity on any of the 40 channels? Or, perhaps seeing it on the uppers or lowers? Just debating about getting one of the newer Anytones. The only FM...

Do the manuals have the simulated wood grain covers like the original radios? Plastic chrome and wood grain rules 1970s style.

Merry Christmas to all my friends, all their family, and to anyone who thinks of big trucks and black Trans Am's when someone says- the Snowman.

I started laughing. I just pictured trying to teach my 14 y/o son how to do Morse Code and having him ask how to do EMOJIS

Merry Christmas My Friends

That's what she said.

I am sure I am not the only person here that tried it. From all the movies we see you would think the full wave for 11 meters would be a great idea and you only invest time and most likely have the materials in the garage. Hiding it by running it through trees on your property seems like a...

Happy Thanksgiving to All.

I have a Pearce Simpson Pussycat 23. My understanding is the Pearce CBs were almost all Cybernet Chassis Mainboards. The knowledge that was passed on to me was FCC legal tune job and nice power mic. I did have the mic pic out re arranged to Cobra pin out to try various mics without issue. I...

My family collects guns. I have the nostalgia thing going on too just like the old radios. I find it fascinating the skill and craftsmanship that went into making the oldies, even the cheapies. They all have a a story. My Ex-Father in law bought an FIE 22 LR Derringer in New Orleans before...
