    Well call me Scrooge, but i'd sure rather see Mrs or Miss Clause instead of Booty in his X-mas card attire.

    Sparky seems upset

    Wow, I actually agree with Booty 100% for once! lol From watching the post on all the forums, it seems that there are a lot of Kale (10k) supporters, and I do support the "Support the small biz man in the USA" type attitude i'm seeing out there. Sparky's is no where even close to becoming...

    It's a good amp, clean on SSB, depending on how you push it but roughly 400 give or take a few. I baby mine :) Oh they did make a 2 pill version also. If your box is ohh 8"-10" long maybe? then it should be the 4 pill.

    MIC ARSENAL: USE AND SHELFED

    Looking around the shack, seems I've collected D104 loli's, SideKicks, +3's, +2 ssb's, Shure 450, JCD201M,Cobra Ca60, numerous hand mics from the d104mb, rk56, ec2018, st65dx, and most every astatic. Sad but nowadays their all collecting dust, although I do try to use one every now. Since going...

    your favorite CB myth , lies and legends .

    that's always been my favorite. Can't believe nobody has mention AB - vs C boxes, damn Booty!

    why do class C amps need certian jumper lengths ??

    It is a strange one Booty. I've always used whatever amount of coax it took to get to where i needed it. Whether it was a C box or a Texas Star or Palomar, I've never had any issues. Maybe it's grounding issues with the radio and boxes . Maybe proper coax jumpers being soldered together...

    considering an M400 starduster. whats the deal?

    Like James said (15minigrass) change the screws or secure them better. I've had the original StarDuster and the Workman or Sirio Clone or I should say I still have the clone. The clone, the screws fell out of the tip top after a few years and the tips fell off. I redid the tip and all with new...

    Skipper by Palomar

    Most likely 4 x 454s, I have the same amp here. Great little amp good for close to 400 pep, depending on how you drive it and the volts going to it. Keep your dead key low, whatever it takes to get the amp to dead key around 100watts and you should be fine and it will last a long time. Now, that...

    What is keeping you from going ham?

    I agree about this This pertains to my answer later on down Morse Code, I feel is very important to learn, who knows, someday it code be our only means of distant communications, or local comm for that matter. No comment there. I've been a Cb'er for a long time. I learned code from my...

    Around $90 seems right, I've seen them 65-125 new. I got mine used for $40 Spend the money, find either a new or used YA-1, their money well spent versus the 10 and 20 dollar stuff you could waste money on and not be happy. First thing though would be to see if you even interfere with the...

    HAHAHA that's funny! I did have a little problem with a neighbor once, I did install a Bencher YA-1 and my problems went away. Funny thing is he was at his house trying to make illegal copies of DVDs and I was interupting his burns, lol.

    JCD-201M ???? blame this thread on AK295 . ;)

    yes correct, that line came from 808, so who knows, lol. I do know I like the mic and I'm very happy with it, although the 502 is less expensive. Also I like the dual outputs, Compression Hi/low and well the mic says manual, but it should say OFF, and the ssb/fm mode, then the manual gain...

    skythumper n/c mics

    I've went out and did some recordings from the mobile back to the base at a 10 mile distance. Running a stock galaxy 88, I tried the 636,red devil, rk56, d104mb, dm452,ec2018,stock mic, and the st65. When I got home and palyed back the recordings, I was really surprised to hear that the st65...
