That's true for some of the smaller makers, but the big players like uniden and the sony / panasonics / similar buy parts they use a lot of often and just enough to keep them going. Nearly all the parts with date codes in these brands will be fairly close, a year at best in a lot of cases...

A model number means almost nothing, for example the cobra 148 has been made since the late seventies and is still made today. A maker will not want to hold inventory so the date codes on the components are a good indication of how old something is, look for the four digit universal date code...

I wasn't going to say the name in public, but that's the one. For the last few months shes been giving some dude step by step instructions on how to do something like that to a president madison, but with everything inside the radio instead of in a box on top like mine. Way beyond my level of...

If you PM us I can pass on an email address, don't want to put it out in a public forum and cause an upset , I need another radio fixing soon :unsure: Loz!

They didn't leave enough room to fit the name of the country in :laugh:

There is a tech in Sydney ("STN") that adds vfo's to most ssb radios. We had one done in 2012, a 23 channel bengal ssb base rig, with the vfo it covered 25 to 29 megs continuous in 1k, 5k, 10k, or 100k steps. Sounds great on air and we use it for the 26.7 crowd, normal cb channels, and 10...

Instantly recognizable to anyone in Oz that had CB in the late 80s. Sold in huge numbers down here as a "super puma" radio. There was 2 versions, the grey one as below or a silver faced one like the picture you showed, lettering on both was the same. From the manual: it adjusts the AWI...

He wants if for a freakishly big van from the same era. These vans were hugely popular down here in the 70's (they were called "f*** trucks" or "**g wagons" at the time). Not sure if you had the same van craze over there in the states, they were pimped up by getting lined with carpet, and...

They don't do any form of scanning, the radios channel selector is used, such as on band 2 channel 1 becomes 41, 2 becomes 42, up to 40 becomes 80. The Pro810 used a 5 or 6 way rotary switch salvaged from an almost new 10 meter export radio that someone bought from the states and didnt realize...

Seen a Pro810 base with full coverage using one of those boards that used just 2 switches, a rotary (like the usb/lsb switch) in place of the RF gain control for selecting the banks of 40 channels, and the channel 9 switch for 5K / 10K shifter. It can be done with less switches than stated if...

Pictures below, not sure how to add them but here goes nothing. Fitting it looks complicated but should be easy for a technician i think. I tried to get specs into the pictures from the instruction sheet. Sorry about the average pictures quality, these were done with my Samsung phone as i...

We've got some of the old (mid 90's to mid 2000's era) replacement PLLs for the upD2824 SSB radios, any idea what these are worth (if anything these days)? We got them when we bought a bunch of gear from a CB shop that went broke. They look new (unsoldered) except for one that was...

Wanted to buy: Courier Gladiator pll, must be the "PLL" logo'd front panel version, not the earlier non-logo'd crystal locked model. Must be in good or better cosmetic condition and complete i.e. no missing knobs im not too fussed if it works or not or if it's a 23 or 40 channel variant...
