Sure Kenwoods are CBs..........My Kenwood CB gets used on 11 meters everyday. Talk about getting off the subject, I didnt see anything about EXPORTS either! Next point; how many of these threads actually follow the original post to the tee? Dont cry, deal with it!

TheCBShop over in Syracuse NY coencidently is the inventor of the Peat/Repeat......Also heard that they are doing all the factory repairs etc on the Northpoint radios.

Good Job! Everyone just did ALL CWMorse work for him!

You all dont think that POP was a cap???? Im surprised you didnt see remnants of a cap strewn all over the inside of the radio too. :lol:

Decent radio, expandable for channels. Its a keeper for sure.

IF it was blown using a 2 amp fuse! How many radios have you have to replace a whole bag full of stuff cause the guy had a 30 Amp in place??????? I've seen more than my share!

Agree about the Madison, Always used a Redco RFC-250 with it until I graduated into real radios. That was the nice thing about the Cobra 2000. I think I'll change my CB Base to the Cobra 2000. What a beautiful rig, and everything you can do with the Madison you could do with the 2000 with the...

I really dont think I can comment because the post was submitted before I was even born. This must have been some really top secret hybrid radio for 1969. :)

There is a rancher I knew that was down in Douglas Arizona, For those of you with no map thats in SE Arizona along the border. For years, the wetbacks would steal, ruin the water sources, cut fences, leave garbage, disturb grasses, run and rustle cattle, and run drugs through his property until...

Go invest in an Ameritron 811H The tubes are redilly available and CHEAP. It will do 700 watts clean power. Upgrade it with 572B tubes and youll never replace a tube as long as you own the amp. 10M coversion is very easy too.

Waaaaah! I hear some jealousy out there! Why would a ham get pissed cause someone bought a better radio than his to transmit on CB? One would think that he would be happy! This due to the fact of finally having a neighbor throwing a "clean" signal! A neighbor that sounds good and doesnt...

Another reason why Moleculo knows his schznit. Id go with an HR2510, or Lincoln, I wouldnt mess with the HR2600 (cause of the readout on the frequency mod). If your gonna get an HF rig I go with Kenwood or Yaesu. I dont like the Icom sound on SSB. You can find converted Kenwood 430s 440s or...

An upgrade dream too. When I replace Channel LEDs to Blue, I prefer this radio. Comes apart easy. Also easy to put in the "disco" light. Just like Uniden, keepin it easy! This radio also Tunes really nice!

Im sorry!

I am new here and I can tell Moleculo knows his business. If its working then it can be a good radio. Take it to a good tech, a good tech will always check the traceside for poor solder joints and freshen up anything suspect. I would go for a Wilson 1000 magmount. It will the power that...

The little transformer on the NW goes out and no one ever replaces them. Probably cheaper to replace the radio. You can get any of these 29s from truckers for under 50 bucks usually. All the front mic 29s and 25s are the ones made in china. They are plagued with cold solder joints. If you...

Mobil: TS50S Kenwood Base: TS430S Kenwood I like the TS430 better than the other SSB rigs Ive owned, the 2000, 440, and Icom 720. If you are refering to "CB" only rigs: Mobil: Uniden Grant XL Base: President Madison

These are basically the same as a Galaxy 949 without the frills. Capable of channel expansion (very easy), capable of big audio. I have owned several. Problems I see....no place to install an echo board on the face. You have to drill a hole in the case. Do this as an alternative.......Buy...

I would buy the LT-2N. It is almost a TRB-1 in all capabilities and is VERY small and easy for an amature to install.

OK radios. Not Great. The squelch fails constantly. Very hard to work on due to its construction and size. It was a "low budget" sideband radio. The stock PLL is not upgradeable. If you get one that works like a gem, I wouldn't give more than $50 for it. Spend twice that and get a Grant...
