    Multi speaker hookup

    Barjan and Roadpro both have versions of this visor mount speaker. Could be easily modified to separate the speakers with another cable and plug. Not sure what the sound through these would be on 1 of the smaller speakers as opposed to them being combined. These seem to have decent reviews, but...

    Multi speaker hookup

    "Amplifier Damage: Connecting the outputs of two radios to one speaker can create a short circuit, potentially damaging the radio's amplifier. Two Separate Speakers: The simplest solution is to use two separate speakers, one for each radio." These are kinda where I am at as well. Just tossing...

    Multi speaker hookup

    That sounds like a nice setup. I guess I forgot to mention this is for a RAM 3500 installation. It's a big truck, but still limited by the drop down drink holder and an extension below the dash on the center hump. I had have a 2800 that was mounted on top of the mount and a 2950 on top of the...

    Multi speaker hookup

    Not really a mod, but a question on hooking up a single speaker to 2 radios. I was wondering if something like this would work; I know it will hook up to the radios and speaker OK, what I wonder is if I can use both radios at the same time, or would there be some feedback from one radio to the...

    Technics SA-212 AM/FM stereo service manual/schematic needed.

    Good news. I posted on another forum looking and came up with the manual. Audiokarma is a great place to find and learn about audio.

    Chevy Cruze CB Install

    I had a 2 meter in my Cruze, with a trunk mount Comet antenna. No issues, of course it's FM not AM, and not a CB.

    DINNING OUT IS A DISAPPOINTMENT

    The dining experience has decayed immensely since the world got shut down. Finding competent caring employees seems to be a challenge. Can't even get a smile from any of the servers...

    Looks like eBay has really slit their own throats with the high fees etc ....

    It used to be be such a simple straight forward platform. their fees that seem to get a piece of everything, on top of high shipping rates has put a damper on the whole operation. Went from an online yard sale type idea to big business. The few things I've sold over the last year or so seemed...

    Who here has the bug for collecting guns too?

    If they still have gun shows in your area, you could take it and show it around and get a feel for it. Just keep i mind a lot will tell you what you have is junk, and what they have is gold:)

    Who here has the bug for collecting guns too?

    I've a few, I like the Military or Police types. Surplus or whatever you want to call it. You are correct about smith's, but that's been a long time problem. I remember going to 2 smith's on my old Springfield pump action. "67" if remember correctly. The slide bar broke and the 2 I took it to...

    I guess we've been edited, but I get your point. Been a tech since mid 90's I guess, 1st time having to pony up after the initial investment. I too got the GMRS, don't know why as I don't use it. Thought I might be able to on my IC208, but antenna won't go there I don't think as far as...

    What happened to UNIDEN ??

    I had several BEL's over the years and they were great for the time. I will say the best one I have run is the R4, it seems to see around corners and the range seems like it's infinite here in the desert flats, also in the flats of Texas

    What happened to UNIDEN ??

    I run a Radenso Pro in one car, bought it a while back (2014), and a R4 (2023) in our new car. Both are great compared to the RX65 I ran for a lot of years. The technology keeps getting better. The Radenso is great, the R4 is even better.

    The end of selling on eBay is near ...

    epay used to be a nice platform to sell, back when it was like a flea market. THEN it got too big, and they started to expand fees and charges and then took something from everything you do. I rarely sell on the platform, but they do offer world-wide exposure. Back when they started though you...
