Lords, I'm going to have to buy the jack first, then use one of my spare 4 pin cobra mics. This may turn into a nice learning experience. Taking a negative (broken mic), and turning it into a positive (learning experience). So now I'm looking at the broken mic,...as a good thing. :)

Thanks again lords. I've been checking ebay every couple of days, but haven't been lucky as of yet. As far as wiring a regular mic to it,..I'm not sure how this is done. I've never looked at the inside of this type plug. Do you solder the wire ends to it?? I'm a complete dummy when it comes to...

Thanks lords. That's the one. Now,...if only I could find a place to buy a complete mic,......

Hi Everybody; Hey, I bought a cobra 138 (not xlr) from ebay. When it arrived, I found that the mic was broken. This normally wouldn't have been a problem,...I would have just replaced the mic with one of my spares,..But..The mic for the 138 is the phone jack type. It kinda looks like a very...

cdurost, I also have a mod. 29, and got a new face for it on ebay. There's usually several available by various sellers. Hope this helps.

Switch Kit,...Great reply, It brought back a lot of memories!! Donna Summer, Disco, BJ & the Bear, and of course the CB craze of the 70's. It all went hand in hand. I'll never forget it. Ah, to be able to relive those times...what I wouldn't give....... :)

So,..You're the guy that outbid me on that radio!!!! Just Kidding!! :lol:

I read somewhere on the net (an antenna company site), don't remember where, that a mag mount with a tuned antenna would lose maybe 5-10% at most. I was checking this out because I run a magmount on my Sunfire. If in fact there's that much lose,...I think I'd have to come up with a new plan. :)

Wow,..seems like everyone in this post has,...ISSUES!! :lol:

I have a handheld that I use an adapter to hook up a PL-259 from a mag mount antenna. I stick the antenna up on the gutter when I'm on the patio, and generally just listen to all the jawjacking. Using the antenna like this is probably not the best way to do things, but it's not serious, and just...

Thanks Booty monster for the link,...I think I'm going to have to order it. It's nice to relive some of the fun times in life!! :)

Opps! Forgot one. This is possibly my favorite (how could I forget?) :oops: . Sears Roadtalker 40,..with the slanted face. :)

Thanks for the info Butcher318. This cleared up a little bit of the mystery for me.

I have a dumb newbie question. What's the difference between a CB for U.S. sale, and an export radio?? Before signing up for this forum, I had never heard of "Export Radios". Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks

Ah Yes,..to have hair again, Wish, Wish, Wish!! :lol:

Hey Cat Driver, where on the net did you find that book. Did they have anymore???

Very Nice!!

Wow!! What a setup!!!!...Now I'm Jealous! :)

I Think that's an old wives tale :lol:
