I've an old school 2950, just got it back from a tune. Turned it on today to listen to some radio and after about an hour both of the display light went out. Also the keyboard lights seemed to have dimmed more than usual. I find it hard to believe that both the bulbs went at one time. Is there a...

Not really a mod, but a question on hooking up a single speaker to 2 radios. I was wondering if something like this would work; I know it will hook up to the radios and speaker OK, what I wonder is if I can use both radios at the same time, or would there be some feedback from one radio to the...

Well, got a little bit of a shock when I went to renew my ticket yesterday. I had no idea they started charging for renewals, or when. I must live in a cave

I've a Cobra 2000 that I have a question on the DC power. When hooked up to AC, the power switch turns the radio on and off as it should. However, when the DC power cord is connected, the power comes on and stays on...no matter the switch position. I think I read somewhere that the 2000 does the...

anyone around Phoenix looking for a nice base. Not mine, but better than ebay pricing https://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/ele/d/mesa-vintage-ge-superbase-cb-radio/7804786884.html

I was wondering if the MF400 is a class AB1, AB2, C or something in between. I have done several search's and get different answers. I'm finding out that it is similar or the same as a Palomar 450 FET. Any insight would be appreciated. I generally run SSB, like 90%, so I'm not too sure if this...

Found 2 schematics in a small box of tubes while going through some of my late father in laws collection. I know they used to print maps and such on fabric during WW II so they would not run or wash out when getting exposed to the elements. I have never seen a schematic like that, and the...

This on the bay has me confused. The face-plate looks to be a DX model with the HI-LOW switch, yet there is no "sel call" 6 pin plug on the back as all the ones I've seen have...

Does any body happen to know what the 2 diodes are that are in this controller/ There are 2, D1 and D2, but the manuals only give a CDE part number. 1 is listed as a zener, and another a 100 PIV diode. That's all the info on it I can find. Thanks for any help

Has anyone used or owned one of these. https://www.aimtti.com/product-category/frequency-counters/aim-tf900series The specs seem good and it's Made in England (Great Britain), There just doesn't seem to be a lot of information as far as reviews for it. One guy on utube has a review, that's...

Working on an old school 2950, orange face. I found a shorted C103, may have been inserted with the wrong polarization. I replaced that cap, and going through a PLL align, I found I can't get past the first step which is looking for the 10.240 at L61. I think L4 (IFT12251) might be the culprit...

I'm looking for a mounting bracket for an HR2510/2600 radio. A friend of mines son just got his class 3 and is on the road. I plan to give him a HR2510 I had done up by "DOC" as a sort of graduation gift but I don't have, or can't find, a bracket for it. If someone has a spare and could help me...

I was kinda perusing fleabay and noticed that there are so many fewer 2950DX model offered for sale, or sold, as opposed to the older 2950 models. Any thoughts on this. I have both and like them both equally actually. The DX models have a little more white noise, but are a nice radio. I have one...

Well, I really wondered why the radios and other items were listed and selling for such high prices. Evidently epay charges have really gone wild since I last sold anything. Almost $60 in fees for a $150 item sold. Evidently the charges are based on item, shipping,tax...crazy. Just a rant, now...

This isn't ebay, but my local ad for anyone near Las Vegas,NV that might have some interest. https://lasvegas.craigslist.org/ele/d/pahrump-misc-old-school-electronics/7717966945.html

I have brought out my late father in laws SBE Console II radio. It has a Glen 326-1 Digital VFO hooked up to it. I have cleaned the pots and switches for the most part. I brought it up with a dim bulb and it appears to be working. I had it on channel 27.385 on the VFO and it did receive...

6 meter is open. Made my first ever contact on 6 meter last night, and it appears to be rolling this morning

I don't think I've ever seen a 2970 with a 3 pin power connector...until now. https://www.ebay.com/itm/296169993434?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&customid=link&campid=5336136228&toolid=20001&mkevt=1

I have factory JC Penney service manuals for the: models; 8024 6221 6225 6237 7007 Also midland 13-883 Any interest in these?

Going through some things and found a box full of parts/things I evidently bought in 2014 as "Miscellaneous CB Radio Parts". I would think that with all the pro's here I can get them identified. They are mostly new, though vintage for sure.
