    Best Mast Pipe

    How about two 21ft. sections of chain-link fence top rail? https://www.lowes.com/pd/Galvanized-Steel-Chain-Link-Fence-Top-Rail-Common-1-66-in-x-21-ft-Actual-1-66-in-x-21-ft/1000005096

    IN NEED OF TRANSISTORIZED TRANSISTORIZED/PILL AMPLIFIER REPAIR?

    In the FWIW Dept., I've been told that BBI is Scorpion's mentor, and has taken him under his wing. Not saying if that's 100% accurate, or if it's a good or bad thing, just parroting what BBI supposedly said during a conversation at the Manchester break.

    A really good video I happened across.

    Absolutely. Unless he has another video covering it, he never even mentioned antenna "audio gain"............;):whistle:

    A really good video I happened across.

    Good video. Just wish it had information that applied to the 11 Meter band. You know, the Twilight Zone of radio communication. :whistle::rolleyes::ROFLMAO:

    Does anybody have a machine shop?

    If we're going that route, we might as well go All In and include "pill watts" versus "tube watts" in the discussion..... :rolleyes::whistle:

    True enough. I remember the time Homer took some poor old lady's aluminum walker and made a Moxon out of it.....:ROFLMAO:;)

    XFINITY RACING SERIES

    So far this season, Ford has been doing well. If the trend continues, it wouldn't surprise me to see some rule changes benefiting Chevy and Toyota. Anymore, it's a glorified IROC series controlled by big business. The empty seats on Sundays attest to that.

    Is CB radio suffering from the loudness wars?

    Surely you jest.......:ROFLMAO::rolleyes:

    Mobile Diesel 4000 Watt "Big Coil" Too good to be true?

    It's been my experience that coils with a gold finish produce more AUDIOOOOO....:rolleyes:

    Weak solar cycles = another big decline of the 11 meter local & DX population

    In the Erie area, you should at least hear Talent Scout on ch.19 (he calls it his "hobby channel") doing his best to agitate the truckers. :LOL: (Yet if you need assistance, he'll help you in a heartbeat. Pretty nice guy actually, but I digress....) Any local traffic in the Erie area will most...

    Hi Drive Amp

    I'm running a dual final export (Galaxy 88) into a 4x2879 LipZipper and am seeing the numbers 543 stated above. No problems whatsoever. I have run a Galaxy 95T2 (2x2290) into the same amp, saw some big meter numbers, generated a lot of heat, and gotten no better on-air performance. YMMV.

    need some help setting up hi fi audio

    Without a doubt a perfect housing for a NC project, but w/o looking on EBay, how readily available is that old model Shure?

    need some help setting up hi fi audio

    You're going to drive yourself nuts trying out all the very usable and highly affordable condenser mic elements available on the market. Just pick out a frequency range and response curve you like and go at it. Even Rat Shack had a desirable version for like 2 bucks.

    Bob's CB Shop

    I'll allow Mr Hopper to supply the final word, but I'm pretty sure the coax length he used was from a former install and had nothing to do with Bob's. As far as the "18' coax myth", as many times as I've been to Bob's I've never heard that mentioned.
