    Driver for 2x2879 amp

    The correct drive for a 2 pill 2879 amp would be a nice dual final radio.

    Forum Speed

    Thats all fine and dandy, I'm just saying I don't see any speed here. Now right now I am on a cable modem at Ivy Tech Collage and it seems quicker then my DSL at home. Might be time to up-grade from the basic 15.95 a month DSL.

    Forum Speed

    Ok, I like the fact that I can actually log in now and it remembers my log in. And I don't have to re-log in after every other post like the old forum. Half the time it would say I used a wrong name or password as well. What a pain. That said, wow, the new forum is slooooooooooow. Probably...

    2x2879's

    Thats what I love about E-Bay, you can see foolish wattage claims from amplifiers to radio's. Remember, the dead key from the radio will only key the amp at a given wattage number. Your peak reading will depend on how well the radio swings or has been tuned. I think the best bang for the buck...

    expo kit

    " some radios need a lot more fiddling around with to make work." What this means Bigred is you will have to tune the cans on the kit so the radio is on frequency. This requires the proper equipment and can be a pain to get it right. Years ago I had an Expo kit in Uniden Grant xl that gave...

    frq. tolerance ??

    Don't forget, you put a radio on the bench with a thick short power cord and give it a steady 14.7-15 volts with no drop off and you will maximize your wattage.

    SS158DX

    For 465 dollars they can keep it. The 158 is a deal for what the price is. Might be like the old RCI 2960, if it don't sell well for a year they discontinue it.

    MY WORST WEEK OF THE YEAR

    I have problems logging in from time to time. Then after several posts and different sections all of a sudden I get the log in page again. What a pain.

    Uniden PC 66

    You mean an Expo kit? Thats fine, gives you extra channels without hacking the switches on the radio all up. Sounds like a nice radio.

    galaxy 94hp any opinions??

    If it was not so darn expensive I would love to try one. From what I hear it's a good, solid, clean 100-120 watt radio. I'm sure someone will chime in on their's with a "special" 150 watt tune. LOL

    SS3900

    For the money spent it's not worth adding a final. There are so many new radio's out that have so much more power anyway, sell it and get a different radio. The 3900 comes in a dual final version. As far as the 2290 mod, you will just have to e-mail or PM the techs on the forum and see if...

    good ebay deal

    Minitrucker, the ONLY thing he must do to complete the deal with you is ship everything pictured in a timely fashion. He makes NO claim that ANY of that stuff works. Read the add, if you don't like the deal don't bid. If that was me and then you bong me with negative feedback I would be pi$$ed off.

    Swing Mod + for the magnum Delta force.

    Very cool Lords, I love my Delta. " Dont these have the Top Gun Modulators???? " The Omega Force does, the Delta Force never came with the Top Gun.

    Galaxy 98 VHP question.

    Bigred, I'm a Galaxy and Magnum fan. You don't have to be a radio tech to figure out these new breed super high powered radio's are going to run HOT. I think the new 94 is the best of the bunch. Most truck drivers like to rachet jaw and stay on the key, combine that with these shops that like to...

    Galaxy 98 VHP question.

    Thats what happens when you stuff four 1446's into a radio case. It already has two internal fans. I'm still surprised that these new 4 pill Connex and Galaxy radio's aren't burning up right and left.

    ? much

    " Uniden Grant , President Grant are they the same radio? " No. I prefer the Uniden Grant xl, in great shape anything under 100 bucks with the box and all is a deal.

    uniden 78 or cobra 29 ??

    As far as brand new goes the Uniden Elite 68 and 78 are darn good radio's. These have the orange lighting.

    Last Local shop gone

    Our locaL CB shop is no more. They were in the basement of the truck stop on I-69 @109A, place was as big as a bedroom. That cost them 700 bills a month plus a take of their sales. The lease came up and the new rate was going to be 1200 a month plus a % of the gross. What a shame, and what the...

    which radio for txstar 250??

    Oh no, DTB, is that a regular practice when you tune a Magnum radio? It does have an on off switch. I had a Justin tuned S3 for a short while and he removed the speech processor and top gun. I sold it because my Delta Force kicked the crap out of it even with a golden boy tune.
