NICE Face plate !!

Thanks for all that info , I guess I will try to have it repaired. At least get a price on it . But, this is nothing like the other Ranger/ Superstar units I have owned . Like you said it is definitely an RCI circuit board....but it won't hold a candle...

Anyone have any experience with one of these oldies? I received one of these "little Gems" several years ago & man it has been nothing but trouble . I wonder if the conversion was done properly??? It is extremely sensitive to heat & cold whenever it...

MAn, That is some interesting reading there....neat link !

I think I would ask the guys at MACK what that "box" is . Please let us know , you have my curiosity up. There is nothing more aggravatiing than a noise problem. In the past i have used a mag-mount Wilson 1000 with some good results but, I have...

Loosecannon , Don't forget to let us know your findings ! Man that is great to have RAY to come on here to explain everything !!

Oh yeah that goes on all the time at Grocery/ distribution warehouses , gravel pits etc. I'm sort of in agreement with Switchkit ....I'm just glad to see the radio being used. It's hard to catch many folks on the radio anymore !

You will not go wrong with DTB or BOB'S !!

I WONDER WHY HE WOULD SAY THAT...... In PA .......I highly recommend DTB & BOB's !!!

THank you Sir !

Yes sir ....I believe you have certainly "hit the nail squarely on the head!"

moleculo, I'm not familiar with those speakers, can you recommend a good DSP speaker brand for CB & where I might could purchase one? When I drive it is usually a "slip-seat" situation , filling in for another driver & it is just NOT practical to go...

Recently , due to the new engine designs , cab creature comfort items , (if improvements are not invented/ found ); I am afraid CB's will only be useful for EXTREME short range communications. The new engines , fuel pumps , inverters, digital dash information...

Nightwatch, I have one of these too so, I am interested in the responses . I have mine hooked up to a modulator & it did a pretty good job talking to the "chicken haulers" LOL

I used to run big watts in my mobile but, now I'm just a barefoot boy. With CB popularity being a lot less than it used to be I can get 10-25 mile range out in the country with NO extra power and the alternators on the pic-em-up last longer.

SAD but , true I'm afraid :(

One last question re: the variable power: If I turn the TOPGUN off & turn the power to max -Is it OK to run the radio like that all the time ?? BTW , I do not run an amp . If anyone has suggestions as how the best way is to set the power knob ...
