    A Dipole for your CB Base Station?

    Don't get me wrong, I am not opposed to working on or building something. I work on radios and related equipment close to 60 hours a week. Sometimes its simpler to buy something already assembled and figured out. I will build my own again. As a friend of mine coined "it's not what you...

    A Dipole for your CB Base Station?

    I've read every post here and there is a wealth of information. In the early 80's a "ham" friend of mine helped us build a diapole antenna we could use in an apartment. We used a single piece of coax with a PL-259 on one end. If I remember right it went out left to right 8' 8" each way . It came...

    Opinions on THE best mobile radio for all arround use. PERIOD!

    In the last 40 years I run, heard, and seen alot of radios. I've heard this is the best, that is the best. The 2510 you have is an excellent radio. Get a quality antenna/coax system. Get a good quality amp and you'd be set. I personally run a Ranger AR 3500 (100w) version from time to time. I...

    Sparky CB Shack turning into Jerk...

    I sat down and read through each post on this. All I can say is DAMN!!!!! I have a small shop and have been in business for the better part of 20 years. I have found you cannot please everyone no matter how hard you try. No two shops are the same. Although the general methods to what they do are...

    Radio shack swr/power meter?

    I think I have 3 of these in the shop. Not a bad little meter for personal use. Wouldn't use it to set anyone else's equipment tho. But just the same they seem to work very well.

    Galaxy 66

    Had the same problem when I ran a sweet 16 behind mine with a silver eagle for a driver. I went to a smaller box, fixed a couple cold solder joints on the board and changed to a better antenna. Works like a champ now.

    Gray 300 ... Any opinion about this amp?

    I've had and ran a couple of these. I liked the earlier onethe best. Never had a problem with either of mine. Lots of audio and more than enough power to do what I wanted to do. Only sold them when truck drivers game me some stupid money for them. Kinda with I still had one. I do have a custom 4...

    RANGER 3500

    I may run mine in one of my trucks for a couple weeks. That is if the weather is nice enough for me to install it. Going to use it to drive my 4 pil box (2879's).

    Antenna Analyzer Options?

    I was told it may take 4 to 6 months to get mine back after I send it in. It needs to be recalibrated. The only other choice I have is to buy another meter. I do like the meter and the way it works.I have a couple other meters as well that I don't like as well. ie: PDC 600, 700, Dosy Test...

    RANGER 3500

    I have a Ranger 3500 (100W) version. I've had no trouble with it. I did have to adjust the audio some. I'm running a Midland Noise Cancelling Mike with mine. No problems and it works great. Had it for sale here a couple months ago but no serious buyers. At this time I'm not using it but that may...
