    Numark CB-160

    Nothing remarkable on the back panel, 1 cable marked CB, 1 marked radio, and an input for the car antenna.

    Numark CB-160

    The idea behind these to key up and when the red led lights up you are good to go?

    MECTRON ME-400

    Does anybody have any information on this radio? Other than a user manual I can't seem to find anything. The one I have looks perfect, receives great, I haven't keyed it. I will save that for after a re-cap maybe. Meishoh Electronics Co., Ltd. is the maker, and they also made LAKE CB radios...

    Vintage Truck fender antenna delete for CB antenna.

    Don't know the hole size, and I've asked as well. I think he may be abandoning the idea now as I don't have any free solutions laying around. Thanks to all for the thoughts. This what I found that might work if the hole was 1", https://www.rfparts.com/mm-1.html. I think it's the one...

    Vintage Truck fender antenna delete for CB antenna.

    From what I see, this doesn't have the integrated CB antenna. I do appreciate your input though. Also it's not complete. There's a Citizen brand on the bay that does have the CB antenna capability, but it is for a Corvette and is a flat type mount where the truck is angled. Having had several...

    Vintage Truck fender antenna delete for CB antenna.

    Thanks, I'll keep a look out. Well, my nephew has a lot of ideas, and he usually passes them onto me for some kind of solution. We've pulled a few rabbits out of a hat to get him going. Maybe the old standby antenna...a coat hanger. But I don't think he has the base. He wants to stay old...

    Vintage Truck fender antenna delete for CB antenna.

    Looking for any ideas on mounting an antenna on a vintage truck in the original fender hole. I was thinking possibly an original type antenna, if I can find one, with a match box...but only as a last effort. Just gonna be hooking up a Cobra 25 for more nostalgia, but function as well. My...

    CB Re-caping

    When I recap, I check value of the old cap coming out, and the new cap going in. More time consuming, but interesting to see the degradation of the older cap, and QC being what it is, I don't put a bad one back in...just my $0.02 worth.

    Interesting overview of the AI/DATA Centers and impacts you don't hear about

    We as citizens have always been irrelevant. "1984" is a look at what's really happening. A little slower moving in the US, but still going that direction. "Terminator" is another look at it. Sci-Fi aint so fictional. That's my opinion anyway. Glad to have lived in a time when riding a bike...

    If you were a pirate broadcaster, what's playing right now?

    I guess every generation has their music, but at 70, I think ours was the best. Can enough be said about Neil Peart cowbells please

    Living in Southern Nevada since the late 60's, in a population of then 150,000 or less, I remember having to implement water saving measures. No watering the grass, no washing your car, and on and on. Several times in fact through the 70's as well with we have no water mantra. Now we're in a...
