That price is mighty steep! IF there is one thing we should have all learned by now it is that seperating a fool from his money is quick and easy! Just look at how like the Stryker 955 has been doing it steadily! If you purchase from Wolfman it is PT Parnums dream come true. This is just more of...

So I found this while researching for an affordable TCXO mod for Galaxy radio's. It is from 2019. It seems reasonable to me but I have never tried anything like this. I am a parts swaper at best with Mouser and Digi-Key account not a real Electronic Technician! I know just enough to get myself...

The easiest work around would be to purchase headphones of high impeadance that are diffacult to drive. That is why headphone amps are a thing so in hifi circles there are headphone amps that start around 1.5w for normal use that go up to 50w per channel when driving diffacult headphones and...

In years gon by headphones designed and sold for metal detecting where dual mono.

You know outside of Gold Finger audio mods for transmit and recieve audio and 2SC1973 mod not a lot out there on this little radio. The term "Red headed step child" is too mild! It seems like the greater community droped a steaming turd on it once it was born and left it for dead. LOL I have...

I have seen that before too. Not in a long long time though.

That is always tough helping a friend from a distance. If the mod was done with crystals and a switch ala Expo or LC type board you get an entirely different channel map than if it is a hack of the stock pll. So sadly how the channels where come by does matter in what the channel map will look...

I think the crystal is a different freq. than the 148GTL or Uniden Grant XL. Outside of that it is similar performance.

Well it should have a MB8719 PLL. So it should match ever other MB8719 PLL two switch mod. I spent less than 2 seconds on google so I am confident if you look you will easily find this info. Find out if it is a PLL hack or if it is the Expo type hi/lo/normal kit with crystal. Good Luck to...

So I spent last night on the sight looking at past threads and downloading support documents from CB Tricks. It has not arrived yet so I have no clue if it is the older origanal bipolar design or if it is the latter mosfet design. When I know more I will report back. I do not need more rf...

Well I too have some hate but not for legit use of radio or POTA! I get tired of people with stupid amounts of power effectively killing comm's like how channel 6 is. Every single person on the bowl should have been caught and sent to Prison for a 2-10 years by now. I am talking about the well...

Glad you pulled through! Funny how drunks and potty mouth ignorant fools always find a radio and often a decently powerful amp. I remember back in the day when we had local "nets" and they where actively policed there where many a times 10-15 good ol boys hoped in trucks and paid a visit to...

Sadly I am old enough that I got that reference right away!

I have been saying this for years. Blue light also disrupts the quality of your sleep. Red and Green where used for decades not just because they could not make blue LED's but they knew those colors where not that hard on the eye's to look at, did not destroy night vision, and did not look like...

A lot of amatuer mobile radio's have used higher than 12V devices and step up transformers. My problem with Anytone and the like is that they are not using RF specific output transistors they are just using cheap garbage mosfets.

Do not take this as an attack against you but you are the last person that should saying the above. That said I agree with you 100%. I thought you where rediculious for the modifications you had done to your Stryker955. To get to what 140w? So why would you a guy with 140w+ modified Stryker955...

Freq. it is the voltage regulator or the crystal filter if the problem comes and goes. I am one of those people that think after 10-15 years all of the low voltage caps should be replaced in anything made in China anyways!

The best recieve in CB is actual 1980-1990 CB radio's based on Uniden and Cybernets radio's. All of the best exports are cheap copies of these radio's in their export form. So Cobra 138XLR, Cobra 148GTL, Uniden Grant XL, XLT, and all of those that proceded them electronicly are what you are...

I understand the rules and wish to enter the contest!

We all have excuses myself included. I did you a hint or trail of crumbs. I am busy too. Trust me I could go on and on about my rotator cuff, bicep, need for double knee replacment, diabetes, chronic insomnia, dad's cancer, mom's heart surgery, 2 of my 3 sons not being able to find work fresh...
