    President Grant pc-409 Test Point 21

    This is where I am stuck, the third step of the alignment as per the Sams Photofact and a few other sources: Input of frequency counter through a 47pF capacitor to TP20 (IC1 Pin 7). Ch. 19, AM Check for 10.240MHz. Input of oscilloscope to TP21 (L21 Secondary). Ch. 19, AM L21 Adjust for...

    President Grant pc-409 Test Point 21

    I am having trouble with an alignment on an old president Grant I picked up. The trouble is I am not able to get a frequency reading on tp21, the bare lead of r101. What am I doing wrong? The radio works properly I just want to get the alignment spot on

    ANYTONE ARES II 11 meter freq conversion.

    Shame shame 399, replacing a classic Uniden 858 chassis with surface mount stuff, The 138xlr is only about 4" longer lol.

    Motor Mouth Mauldulator. Well done, but not done well.

    This is exactly why I love ranger made radios.

    Ranger TRE797

    I have been very pleased with the browning double shield rg8x jumpers and coax with the molded ends.

    RCI RT-1 MOSFETs WTF?

    What happened to the guy that made the m80 modulators? His site is still up and I ordered a few of his different kits but they were never shipped and PayPal refunded my money.

    RCI 69 Base Plus-no average swing

    Because it is a stock radio. A properly set up NPC-Rc mod will give you the swing you are looking for. Should be similar to the 2950 surface mount board.

    President George FCC

    The George is a snooze fest. Who wants an ssb radio that cant even slide between channels?

    Old D-104 Base Mic help

    I have taped lightly on the elements before and got them to start working, I like the electret condenser elements but they don't match the warmth of the old element. Also I recommend cleaning the leaf switch with a burnishing tool, and if the mic has a lazy bar and a chicken choker I add a small...

    UNIDEN BEARCAT 980SSB "Cracked."

    Lets just put that same display on our new President George. They may have found a solution, or they have deep pockets for warranty work.

    Shure hand mics

    The old Shure "Ranger" mic sure looks neat.

    Another new(?) Ranger

    90% of the radios we sell across from the truck stop on I40. It is hard to get my boss to order the ssb models because they set longer. Hopefully this one will be a little cheaper than the 39vhp plus.

    Is anyone making a new base station

    I run the big galaxy 2517 on my base, nice big meters, good receve stable and I find it quite fast for scanning through the 3 bands of 11 meter I run. If I had the extra cash I would bring home a 69 base for the 10 and 12 meter coverage as It is just an updated version of the same board. Good...

    McKinley SSB power levels

    Maybe 1.5 carrier going in was enough to saturate the mosfets then excess power goes back to the radio as reflect.

    Another $800 hotrod from Ranger

    my 69vhp has no flicker, more stable than one of my locals 955 version1. The 6900xxx series boards are as stable as any old school uniden when working properly. The digital radios don't tell on themselves when they drift .

    Another unannounced one from ranger

    I just got my hands on 1 of these, I like the way these things swing from a low carrier, amp ready out of the box.

    Another $800 hotrod from Ranger

    The 69ffb4 was pretty stable on ssb even with the 500watts of heat on the bottom. My Galaxy 95t is also very stable with 150 watts heat on the bottom. I have ran an unstable 95t2 that was putting out close to 250 and it drifted like a sailboat and soon found a home with a lover of big watts...

    CB Tricks site UPDATES/THREAD MERGERS

    It is sad how much good information has been lost from the glory days of bbs and web forums. Now search results on google are an endless stream of ai generated garbage or you have to watch a 30 minute video for a piece of info that you could have found in 2 minutes scanning a forum post.

    Best SSB Radio under $300?

    As far as "Best ssb CB radio under 300" the 959 would be my choice of fcc approved cb radios. Good power output that can be improved with a better final transistor, easily modifiable for extra frequencies unlike any other ssb cb currently available. Tone control on receive, good frequency...

    I never knew there was a kriss 600ssb, This is awful I am running out of room for my tube amp collection.
