Alright, I know this is going to be a rookie question, but never having played with these I'm ignorant. There is a pigtail with the QRM eliminator that is a 3 wire. Red, Black, White. The instruction are fairly clear on the 12v supply of red and black, but th4n it says to connect the white to...

This is downright ugly. I've always had noise in my radio, usually about 3 to 4S units that I had to deal with. Even when everyone says they're dead silent, mine has noise. I've learned to live with it. A few days ago my radio actually went nearly silent with everyone elses. Hard for me to...

I'm searching for a legal limit antenna tuner and switch. Don't care about cosmetics cuz the budget is low. As long as it works as intended and can handle 500+ watts. PM me please.

A buddy and new guy to CB just bought a huge lot of radios and amps, and noticed two switches on the back of his 142 GTL. He says he knows it changes frequency, but the original owner can't find the channel sheet. Were there more than one of these kits, and if so, were they different...

Anyone know what happened to Gatekeeper? Hasn't submitted a video to you tube in 6 months and didn't answer my text. He's got a bunch of Texas Star parts and I'm trying to find a supplier for a few pieces.

I appreciate the discussion and shared info on my thread looking for a beam. Great bunch of guys here! The next question is obvious. What would be the best rotor for the money to use on this antenna. I have absolutely no aspirations of upgrading, because I absolutely do not have room. I'm going...

Looking to add a beam to my Arsenal and have been studying until my mind is numb. For space and wind load reasons, I've been seriously looking at the v-quad. Supposedly, 11 DB gain, roughly six or seven foot turning radius, and a 90 mph wind load survival. What I'm looking at doing is putting a...

Can someone clarify this for me? 1000 Watts (CW) continuous, 3000 Watts (CW) short time Is that 1000 continuous like an AM carrier? Or is that PEP??

My first draft.

Don't know if this is allowed, folks, but I thought since he's been such a thorn and a crook, that maybe I could save someone a headache. Here is a judgement against Sherman by the New Mexico Attorney General!!

Howdy folks! Just another extremely strange anomaly from me and my equipment. My setup is like this. Stryker 955 to DX-500, to meter to antenna. All is seemingly good. BUT, I just noticed that when I disconnect the coax from the radio, my meter light goes out. Yes, I have a 12v source (same...

I think I pushed her just a bit too hard. Not sure, but she let out the magic smoke. Took out a couple of resistors and what I think may be chokes. (I'm not a tech) Anyhow, I need this repaired in a timely manner if someone can do it. Pics are below.

Anyone ever try using small heat sinks with adhesive pads on top of 2879s? Was thinking of trying this on my DX-500. The adhesive pads would hold them on and a slow turning internal fan with exhaust holes in the lid should move enough air with virtually no noise.

Across Little Bay De Noc last night

I just purchased a new lid for my DX-500 and it's gorgeous. This guy makes them at home from aluminum for $15.00 plus freight. Here is his info for those who need it: Staci and Frankie Beard https://www.facebook.com/staciand.beard

Just letting everyone know that if you have purchased from CB World (https://www.wearecb.com/) your credit card info may have been compromised. I just received a charge for $102.00 on my card from Recharge.com and the card number was exclusive to CB World. My advice would be to cancel your...

Anyone else suffering the effects of the Canadian fires? Up here, in Escanaba, we've had thick haze and gray days for nearly a month. Our light levels during the day are similar to a solar eclipse. If we get a south wind, it sometimes help clean up the air, but otherwise, we're under a steady...

Any admins out here? I know a guy who registered about 4 days ago and was never notified of his registration acceptance. His name is Eric *****. Can anyone help him?

Dave's Radio is going out of business and has some decent liquidation prices on some things. https://www.davesradiooutlet.org/
