    Francis 8' Wheeler Dealer Antenna

    my 2008 HHR was bulletproof until I got hit in it. It'll do just fine! If you make it up to Seattle there is an active CB community on 17 and lotsa chatter all around during the day. In local evenings 40LSB is a good one.

    First buy from KSL classifieds!

    Ah, so Seattle is outta luck on that one! One time when I was in Sandy, UT to watch a Sounders away match (soccer) we cruised some local garage sales - I picked up a very cute 1946 Montgomery Wards "Airline" AM radio. It currently sits in my mom's kitchen and plays 880 KIXI AM oldies like it is...

    Random Insomnia Questions

    How does the PTT activate? I’m simple minded when it comes to electronics, is this basically an really cool power mic? If we were to say, put a D104 at the input, what would it look like down the chain to the radio? Overkill?

    Random Insomnia Questions

    So I’m not sleeping too well tonight and a question just came to me: I see lots of really nice audio microphones (like for performers for way less than they cost new. Is there any reason one could not wire up one of these for transmitting on a radio? jigger up a PTT and catch as catch can...

    CB CH9 REACT alive and well on Hawaii-5-O ...

    In my city growing up we could talk with a local cop any time on channel 21 - most weekend we'd yap with him and sometimes stop to visit wherever he was posted up. Of course, he knew we street raced down in the valley but never bugged us as long as we were out in the rural areas.
