The Cobra 2000 (I prefer the 142) was both a performer and a aesthetically pleasing appliance.
It just LOOKED good in a house. That is important. Other than the Galaxy 2547 the other base radios today look like SHIT. :sleep:
How many times has that "rack mountable chassis" been...
I'm not talking about the website guys, I'm talking about the newsletters that was mailed out before the Internet. Did they have general articles, or was it something like Coppers newsletters?
Anyone got a copy of this magazine? I've never heard much about it, until I stumbled across some "old timers" talking about it and their Browning Golden Eagles the other night.
What is the opinion of the KLV 400 linear in the CB community? It seems like the only *new* tube amp available.
It seems to me I would be way ahead just going for a mobile unit, and buying a linear power supply. I can buy a Midnight Special and a Linear for the same price as the KLV 400...
A buddy of mine has a 350HD Texas Star, turned up he makes interference 5 channels up and five channels down.
I find Ameritron amps a little too "hammy" :sleep:
Hey BammBamm, I've heard good things about FatBoy's, as they don't get as hot as the other amps.
I got a little one pill...
In a Base station, I'm talking about that distant station on a quiet night, where you can barely make them out. I can see a preamp built in being useful.
I wonder why don't they build the Preamps into base station radios? I know there are internal preamp kits you can buy and modify your radio to an internal preamp.
Would a internal preamp using your CB's internal front end of the receive work better than say an external preamp in a linear...
They're not "gone" but "updated to the Connex Saturn, DX2517, 2980DX, and the 2995.
I am eyeballing the Connex Saturn, beautiful blue display, roger beep and echo built in. I would like to find a Galaxy Saturn Turbo.:crying:
I'm looking for a NEW base station linear that has built in power supply. Something I can plug into the wall.
around the 200-350 watt range. is there anything in production?
Exactly, how ya going to sell something at a truck stop when you hurting for cash if you have no CB?
I've heard some pathetic truck drivers on the air, need some cash for fuel etc.:bored:
I doubt that, notice how many trucks now have no CB antenna? Especially the dedicate route trucks, I'm seeing fewer CB's in Big Rigs folks.
CB is antiquated, user office888 is Right. Refresh the radios, Chrome knobs are like obsolete, should have gone the way of the metal chrome bumpers on...
Did you contact Bells to give them a chance to "make it right?"
IMO you could have gotten a "Super Wack Packed" radio from RA.... from what I hear is not good about RA!:thumbdown:
