Just heard a few hours ago myself like others I thought about his wife and kids! I always thought he was a little off for being so close but it was entertaining and educational!
Now with that posted let me say a few things!!
I will agree that alot of CB's are overmodulated and sound like trash!! (splatter boxes) and Uncle charlie should have kept a liscence req, but they didn't and that is exactly the reason people use parts of the 10m band because you can't hear...

Hey pluto I looked over at your location looks like your a southern boy just like me maybe we can get it past some...
the load I would be testing would be around 200w for a short burst PEP I was thinking since I already had the one 20w 150 Ohn resistor from the junk tv I could find a couple more. if my calculations are right I should have a load capable of around 60w and with this mounted to a pc heatsink and...
Thinking of making a power supply to run a mobile amp from the house needs to be at least 15 amp what are the components that would ultimately determine the amperage available. Ie transformer? rectifier? filtering capacitors and or chokes? resistor wattage values?
Hey got a Q I made a dummy load out of a old radio chassis, I cut the back off where the only thing left was the coax connector, soldered 20 1000 Ohm 1/4 watt resistors in parallel to get my 50 Ohms works great 1:1 swr my Q is using the 1/4 watt resistors how much power will it handle I have...

Thanx Bushwacker and your analogy of the modded 68 is spot on I just like it cause when ya tell some one out there you have a barefoot uniden and smackin the heads as we used to call it they have a hard time believin it so I show them you cant tell its been done from the outside so they have no...
I have heard, been reading and looking around for the best price on a pc68 elite I am planning on diong the ekl component mods my thought about the uniden and cobra sister radios are this for the price of the radio the price of the parts to mod it and the performance gain it is definatly worth...
I'm into computers just about as much as radio spend an = amount of time on both A couple of years back i found a beta version of a program called dti-4dx that let you interface the computer with a 11 meter radio at the time it was free ware and there was no info on hooking it to the radio I...
tahnx I looked at both the bigun is probably a little out of my budget right at this moment but tell me what ya think of this idea I have a 100 amp alt off a 87 nissan just sitting around and a dryer that the heating element went out in but the motor still works good and a 600 cca megatron from...
I have a small rat shack power supply but it aint enough does anybody have plans for maybe a 10 amp supply that i can use to run a modified mobile cb out of the house thanx in advance
