I have a little TS 4 pill 2290 toshiba under the seat... haha

It does work well, was just wanting to see if I could get a little more distance with a 102”. There is a few of us in a small jeep riding group that like to compete in the cb world, if ya know what I mean ; )

I have the 5’wilson silver load as well , it is top loaded and has been the best antenna that I have tried on my jeep so far. I have not tried a 102” whip yet and have been thinking about it, but would probably hit everything under the sun. I have the tail light bracket antenna mount.

Sorry to hear.. I did that to my cobra 29 and if I remember correctly on it I soldered one leg of a 60 ohm resistor on my pa terminal and the other to external speaker terminal. I didn’t have the variable added, but I think you could add a potentiometer between that connection or use an...

I do deeply appreciate all of you guys knowledge. This is a great forum !!! Thank you

Yea the green button operates the variable knob. Since I’ve learned better, I keep it full clock. The 400v I have has 4 toshiba 2290’s Certainly don’t need to replace those.. ha

Yep that’s good stuff !!! I’ve got a 400v and I like it a lot. I’ve been told to keep my variable full clockwise , due to the variable burning out. You know anything about that ?

Is your 350 a high drive, if so what do you drive it with ?

Yea I’ve definitely heard that I would want toshiba’s and not the DEI transistors .

Dx 500 or 667V ? I’ve heard people are liking the 500 more so than the 667. Just curious to why and what do you guys think? Thanks

Would these help any ??

I may look into a moon raker with and electric rotor so I can turn it as needed.

Thanks guys, you all have cleaned that up for me. Not really much I can do about it then , other than mount the thing in the center of my hood.. haha my jeep has a hard top , but it’s not metal.

Got a crazy question for you guys. I have a cobra 29 with a little fire in the wire and while I am talking to friends while sitting still , we can talk for several miles. It also talks well while I am moving as long as they are in front or to either side ( left or right). As soon as we leave...

Oh yea,, I do all my stuff myself ( what I can do ) I’m an electrician by trade and just scrolled through that little page and saw where they were selling 30 amp wire for 40 amp amplifiers.. lol

Why would they sell #10 wire for up to 575 watts?

Little short on time right now , but I will definitely read the link.

Oh yea , just listening to old timers through the years that knew absolutely nothing about electronics and radios.. lol

Well what was said was it took 3 feet to do a half wave I think. It’s just junk obviously. Just wanted to clear some things up by asking u guys. Great info from all u guys .. thanks

I've always heard about the 3 feet rule. What is y’all thought on that ? And what would be the case if one had a fair amount too much, maybe RF loss ?
