    4X4 Rincon ..ATV C.B.

    How about a Tupperware type container that you just pop the lid off and there it'll be. Do a water crossing, just put the lid back on.

    CB size question

    I dash mounted a 980 in my double din Tacoma hole with a single din stereo. I had to trim just a little on the sides and bottom. It's a little longer even with a 90* connector.

    What are ya'lls prefessions??

    I work for an ex male stripper. I'm a driller on a rig in Mexico and one of my 'bosses' was a stripper in Cancun. He doesn't sign my paycheck, though.

    HANGING A DIPOLE VERTICALLY

    I've got a PDF on a 'skeleton sleeve' home brew. I'll see I I can post it, but it's a square plate(1'x1', IIRC). There is a radial at each corner looking up and a center mounted antennae. The specs were for a different freq than 11m, but it seemed like a simple afternoon project. When I googled...

    Need help with antenna for a dump truck

    I've been working in Mexico recently and have noticed a majority of this style truck have a whip mounted on the nose of it. I haven't decided yet if it's practical to avoid bending it on low trees/bridges, maybe doubles as a gauge for low height obstacles, or if it's just due to the cab and not...

    DTB Radio

    One must take into consideration that most of the good tuners are 'old school'. They were doing this before emails or even cell phones. The internet and shipping industry has grown around them and they are keeping up as best they can. I emailed Bell's about checking out a recent 79-290...

    AM and SSB at night...

    Read up on dipoles. My antenna tower is on the drawing board, but mainly awaiting a shop to be built later in the year with a radio room. I got England once and New Zealand long enough to acknowledge me before conditions deteriorated in a train wreck of stations. Felt good, though. Both from my...

    Have you done an open case side by side comparison with the 980 yet? Just curious if anything could be copied.

    President Grant 2........?

    That's why I'm waiting. As for the face. There's a clear film available for plastic headlights to keep them from fogging over eventually. It's like that protective film for smart phones. May be worth a google if one was so inclined.

    Wilson antenna advice

    What's it going on? The 5k has a superior coil vs. the 1k. I got a 5k trucker and tried it out on my truck vs. my SS whip and it received just as good I thought. I made a few DX contacts on 38lsb with it that afternoon also. I originally bought it to hood/fender mount on my little beater car...

    Goodwill Score

    We'll take the computer duster at work, turn them upside down, and freeze someone's boot sole you don't like. Whack it on the deck and it'll crack open. Then you put it back on the rack and walk away.
