It was quieter today than yesterday but still some good DX rolling around. I can hear some Hawaii right now.

I got an extender and tested it between the mid and top sections. I did two tests. One I mounted it on a under eave satellite dish mount so the antenna was just barely above the roof in a less than ideal setup - I did this to test a real world type mounting situation you might run into with many...

Thank you everyone, I was very excited to preserve this history. Dave is a pretty amazing guy!

Hi everyone- I haven’t made it public yet but here’s the interview so forum members get a sneak peek. Only problem was some crackling audio but as CBers we should be used to that :) if you like it please leave a positive comment on YouTube for Dave it was really awesome of him to share his...

I talked with President USA yesterday and there are plans for some FM capable radios for 2022.

President McKinley radio and using the President New York (Virigina) little mag mount until my new vehicle comes next month - although I may slap the Wilson 5000 on and throw an amp back in if the DX keeps up like this.

Lots of barefoot contacts today with my 20” antenna. Love the return of the DX

It was amazing listening to the story, hope everyone will enjoy it. The man talking is just such a smart guy so as a CB radio hobbyist it is really captivating. Next question. It's about 50 minutes long - should I break it up into part 1 and part 2 at 25 mins each? Not sure if people would...

Members have stepped up! I think I've got photos and videos coming from people for everything except for a CPI 400. If anyone has one of those that's the last need :) Thank you everyone. This video is going to be really cool, it's like stepping back in time and the engineer gave some really...

Hi Everyone, as some of you know I picked up a CPI 300 recently and was going to do a video on it, but through chance I actually turned that project into a video with one of the original founders of the company who I did a short history interview with to try to capture some information from the...

Nahh...it's fun making barefoot contacts but I still feel the need...the need to..drop the hammer.

DX today wasn't bad and I have to say I'm enjoying making contacts with a barefoot cb radio and a 20" antenna :) Amps and export radios are sitting in the garage all jealous.

No they sent me one during testing to see how it worked in lowering the SWR with my antenna. I'm guessing it will roll out shortly if they had good results all around.

Troys radio service is completely legit and are the real deal - they are a Flex radio service repair center in addition to their business service contracts and also CB radio :)

I tested the extension and it does work. My only concern is if it will be a weak point long term but only time will tell. I was happy to see they are working to solve the issue.

Nano VNA - cheap and works great

I'm selling my 2nd (commuter) vehicle and so had pulled out my amp and took off my big antenna and was running barefoot today with a President McKinely and a President New York/Virgina antenna and made a nice contact with 1117 TN today :) Wasn't expecting to be able to make a contact with the...

I know one member has tried the bulletproof mount -https://bulletproofdiesel.com/collections/antenna-mounts I'm looking at the larsen mounts and wondering if anyone has tried one and if they saw a good ground/SWRs https://www.larsonelectronics.com/category/1421/vehicle-mounting-plates They...

Not using the AMP remote switching input, just controlling the actual power leading to the amp. In the past I've run the shutoff wire to a switch on the dash but in this case the vehicle already has the wires in place for power in this specific cubby but I'd rather not have to run the additional...
