Hi all,
Im not well versed on all the latest offerings in the CB market as i tend to enjoy/work on older equipment for the most part.
however, the factory stereo in my van is starting to act flaky and im in the process of replacing it.
This particular vehicle has a double DIN opening, so i...
The only thing i can find on this transistor is a chinese fake on ebay.
the part number is: 4104P1 and i think it might be a motorola transistor?
it's a "pill" style transistor with a stud on the bottom.
I got two of these, never installed, in a box of CB junk a friend gave me.
this was...
found this ad on ebay and to me it doesn't look "factory".
so, was there ever really a "president" D104 or is this a black and chrome that someone modified...
This question came up during a local CB group chat and i had to admit that i hadn't ever really given it much thought, and always just used a deadkey.
Then someone brought up "what about SSB" and i feel like they may have a point. or do they?
So i figured i'd bring up the question to this...

the guy says it seems stock but i don't think so.
no clock?
stars on the lights below the channel display?
looks a bit custom to me.

I found these on amazon and to me it looks a little dinky:
the magnets themselves are 3.5 inches a piece and the footprint is about a 9 inch triangle.
I feel like i would worry about using a 102' whip on something like this but IDK maybe they work just fine.
so does anyone have any...
Hey all,
i have a particular need for a triple magnet mount and am hoping to find one that someone doesn't need anymore but is still in decent shape.
(particularly the pads on the bottom).

thanks!

Hi all,
I will be doing an install on a van in the coming months, and of course, it has one of those protruding ribs right in the center of the roof that runs the length of the vehicle.
the plan is to put the antenna toward the rear of the roof but im going to have to get creative in order to...
Hi all,
I am planning on heading up to the mountains in the next week or two for a day of DXing, and was wondering if anyone could help me predict what days might be the better DX days.
I have never been very adept at interpreting sunspots and the like, so i would really appreciate some advice...
hi all.
looking at getting one of those cheap baofeng handhelds that you can get on ebay for around 40 bucks.
Just wanted to know if i should be looking at something just a bit more expensive for whatever reason, and would also like to know what these things can and can't do.
thanks in...
seems like the 2SK192A is getting expensive, or maybe im not looking in the right place?
i figure there's got to be a more economic alternative somewhere out there.

I have seen what i think is this same item for sale on ebay in the past, and it looks as though it's up for sale again.

Hi all,
one of my saved searches on ebay is for the 2000GTL base station.
i like to see what's for sale for what price, what kind of custom 2000's are being offered, etc...
Over the past few years i've noticed a large number of 2000's that are being offered for 700 dollars or more, with some...
Im talking about things like KiwiSDR and the like.
are the stations all right on the money frequency-wise? Is that inherent in the concept of SDR radio?
ive been wondering about this for a while so thanks for any info anyone can lend.

Just thought about this, and haven't tried it yet, but will be opening up the 2000 in a day or two for another mod, and might give it a shot.
I thought i'd put it out there to the great minds of this forum for a little perusal before i do.
so, the AUX jack on the 2000GTL is meant to allow you...
I thought i had seen all the campy 70's CB movies, but i ran across a movie on youtube last night that features CB radio quite prominently, even if it's not the main subject matter of the movie.
the movie is called 'Supervan'. it can be found for free on youtube.
This movie is classified as...
