I was talking to the guy in Canada after a brief talk with Detroit. Then it started. Every time I would stop talking, in a second or so, some idiot close to me would start sending CW. This was on 27.5550 USB. A real jerk!

Back in the 60's and 70's CB'ers had Coffee Breaks. The CB club I belonged back in PA had one every year. It was held at the county fairgrounds and started on a Friday afternoon and lasted until Sunday night. We had live music, camping and CB gear to no end. Dealers from OH, PA and NY came...
Just words. So if I come up to you and call you a stupid F'ing ass with the intelligence of a God D@m F'ing idiot...they are just words and you would not get upset right? BTW, that was just an example I really wasn't calling anyone those things.:D
An occasional off colored word doesn't...
I'll check out the RF Limited CR-577. Thanks for the suggestion. Right now I'm using a stock mic. Works, but not great. As for the base I have the MXL V67. I put everything together now all I have to do is get it hooked up the the base radio. I'm thinking of using a PTT switch mounted on...
A lot has changed indeed. Not for the better either. They are not "just words". Yes, the general population uses these 4 letter words a lot. But do we have to then accept that as being just fine. In the past a man would not use the "F" word around any females. Now you hear teenage girls...
I smoke but not in the house. When I bought my old Browning base the guy that had it was a cigar smoker. The ash try was right in front of the radio. It took a lot of cleaning but I got the color of the radio back to what it was supposed to be. It was a mess!

It is like that, with the set screw. The problem is, say channel 3. It is about 1/2 way between 3 and 4. But, channel 23 would be up where the old 23B was. So 23 is off by 2 channels. If they were all the same moving the channel disk would do the trick.

He knows about the channel problem. He told me it was off "a little" but it was the best he could do. If that was true then I don't want to send it back to him. He did his best and it wasn't good enough. I'm not sure I want to have it fixed or not. I can receive all the channels. They just...
Great list of contacts Homer! BTW, Pennsylvania still has lots of oil! In fact the first oil well ever drilled still has a little bit left in it.

It was a strange day. I had contacts in WI, MI and NJ. But I couldn't really carry on a conversation with them. There was just too many coming back to me all at once and I couldn't get just one number. There was a guy in WI that followed me from 38 to 39...but so did the rest!:headbang But...
