    Bu-ffa-low.........

    Maybe "Buffalo" is a type of Malt Liquor and he's got it in a brown paper bag and is so happy that he needs to tell everyone.

    Bu-ffa-low.........

    It could be. I mean, how many could there be? I hear him, quite literally everywhere I go. Southeast, Midwest, PNW, central Canada. Growing up, I knew an old lady that had a stroke and could only say one word. Maybe this poor guy suffers from something like that.

    Frances 96" whip.

    Shorter Fransis antennas are on sale at the truck stops. Does this mean they are being blown out as remaining stock?

    Shame on you Google!

    Only people who believe in the bodily resurrection of Christ can celebrate Easter in its full meaning. If Easter falls on the same day as Cezar Chavez day, then godless leftist communists like team google can certainly celebrate that can't they? What else can one expect? Besides, how many...

    Great price on a Cobra 29

    Pilot and J have them on for $89.99 if you use your Frequent Fueler card and you can send away for a $20 refund. $69.99 for a brand new Cobra 29 is a darn good deal if you ask me.

    New mount changes SWR.

    Replaced aluminum bracket and chrome stud of unknown material along with "metal strapping" - bonding strap, on a stainless mirror bracket, with: Stainless bracket and stud along with braided bonding strap. This resulted in higher SWR of .6 right across the channels: Ch. 1: 1.1:1 to 1.7:1 Ch...

    Creating a RF choke...on purpose?

    Thanks to all the responses thus far. I've actually been wondering about running the antenna on the passenger side since there are no gauges there and the main harness from the engine enters through the firewall right near the clutch pedal- exactly where the coax enters the cab from the door...

    Creating a RF choke...on purpose?

    Well yes Bob's is probably a good place, but Bob has little time for questions and he seems to be the only one there that knows anything. His "antenna guy" was pretty much suggesting to me to change everything but the radio. At one point he said "maybe it because you're running power" . Well...

    Best CB Shop dribble I've heard yet...

    Is it possible that the salesman was using hyperbole to make his point? I think it's kinda funny personally. But then I also think a chain drive wallet is cool.

    Creating a RF choke...on purpose?

    Could it be cheap coax causing this? I ran what I believed to be quality- one piece -coax, but I do also get my voice coming through the stereo when talking barefoot.
