We had a issue with notifications and did find that the emails got some how flagged as spam. It seemed to be fixed, are you still not getting notifications? 73 Jeff

Dan, have a look here https://www.worldwidedx.com/ims/ 73 Jeff

There's stuff that is missing from the mirror, and the forum had a ton of information that unfortunately was lost forever. Johns site, Panther Electronics was another early forum that had a ton of valuable information on it that also disappeared into the void. Both of these were extremely...

There was a single thread that was still accessible up until sometime in 2017 that you could still access if you had the thread bookmarked and had the cookie that you were logged in. The last notification I received from the cbtricks forum was 10/16/2017 when Nomad sent me a message, I don't...

You should be able to get there, don't forget the channel arrangement is slightly mixed up in the original 23 channel frequency assignment. Not only the alpha channels, there's is the mix up around channel 23 with the frequencies not in numerical order. 73 Jeff

Me, I still prefer bipolar transistors but most of them are gone, that's primarily why I have old stuff. There are guys building with switching mosfets and they seem to have a handle on them, there are now amps using them close to the KW range. Hg is about the only source for 12 volt stuff and...

The 1446 it is a good transistor, it's actually a VHF transistor that works very well at HF frequencies around 28 MHz. Rated at VHF frequencies for @70 watts it produces about 25% more at 28 MHz. In the past the MRF 492 I considered to be the top of the transistor pile before the Toshiba 2879...

Merry Christmas and Happy DX 73 Jeff

If I had to choose I would take the magnum amp. Better bias if it's one of the original gray magnum amps with the wrap around heat sink. 73 Jeff

No, it's the same as a dx-250 with a different faceplate, the Black Widow 350 is the dx-350 different face. Here is the list from cbtricks. 73 Jeff

Ok, I been super busy but I found this very old thread, it is littered with bantering back and forth but contains some really deep digging into the 2n2999 / diode mods. If you can stand digging through it to find the nuggets. It started with how to do the mod them progressed...

I noticed that the OP is in Germany, I have no idea what the legality is running low power FM. 73 Jeff

It's a violation if you are blocking a licensed FM broadcast station, we can run 100 watts ERP on a LPFM station here in the us but it still requires a license, and at the moment they are not accepting new applications. 73 Jeff

Here's the NB thread https://www.worldwidedx.com/threads/cobra-29-ltd-classic-schottky-diode-mod.228657/ The subject radio was a 29 but the info is useful. There's another one about the low noise transistor used to enhance RX a 2n2999 or something I can't remember right now. If I find that one...

There's a thread about NB diodes here somewhere that has some information.... Let me look 73 Jeff
