I had my meter light changed out to green on my galaxy 959. Well it burnt out on the tech before he got it off his bench. We decided to change it to white because of the looks. Well I got it home and the first day it was real bright and worked good. It did not work for some reason with the...
Ok some might think this is a dumb question but here it goes. What is the best shortest mobile CB antenna? I know that the longer the better range and stuff but what do you think the most efficient shortest antenna is?
This radio is in Mint shape for its age. It only has 1 problem. The pots needs replaced or cleaned on the volume knob other than that its 100%. I'd really like to have a decent base for my shed so I don't need a power supply. I've ran this as a base in my home and ran it in my truck also. Made...
I got a 50-60' nice tower gave to me. I only plan on using 40' of it for my Sirio Tornado 27. I've had people tell me just to put it at 36' at the first wave length. Whats your guys opinion on this? Should I go 36' or 40'. I might can get to 45'. My new coax coming in is 60' and I might not...

Does anyone know if this RF Parts company is good at installing the PL259 ends? They said for $74 plus shipping I can get 55' of LMR400 with amphenol ends on it. Plus shipping.
Where can I get a 1/2 wave electrical pre cut coax with ends already on it? I need one to run with my MFJ259 analyzer to tune antennas. I guess it don't really matter what kind as long as its good coax. Used for tuning antennas only. Not going to be running it on a radio. Thanks
Sirio Tornado 27. I know this isn't the idea place to check the SWR but I was by myself today and it was the best I could do. The ground plain is way below my roof. The SWR is 1.2 on ch 1 and 1.3 on ch 40. Do you think it will be lower if I put it on my 30ft pole that my Antron is on? I'm just...
Do any of you guys run either of these antennas? Looks as if there the same except the power handling. Also do any of you do the coax formulas that I see people talking about? Like if you needed 50' minimum for your coax run and you were using LMR400. What would the length need to be for a base...
A little setup for my shed. Just going to use it to talk to locals while messing around out there. Uniden 510 Pro XL. RadioShack 3amp supply. I hooked it up in the house to make sure the 3amp supply a friend let me borrow would work ok. Works great hooked to my antron 99 SWR 1.2. All I have for...
Where would be the best place to run my power and ground through the firewall on a 2001GMC? I have my 959 on a lighter plug now and want to get rid of the slight wine I have when the truck is running. Going to run 14ga straight to the battery with inline fuse. I'm going to braid the wires...

Anyone ever used this guy? I think I will buy my next radio from him. His Facebook videos are...
Will be running just a barefoot properly tuned radio. Whats your guys opinions on these 2 antennas? I have a K-30 now and a Lil Wil. I mostly use the K-30 now. Or if you have another suggestion I'd like to hear it also. Truck is a 2001 GMC Ex Cab 4x4. Because of my carport my antenna cant be no...
Like brand new Uniden BCD396XT Digital Scanner. Comes with rechargable batteries, charger, programming cable, antenna, and SMA-BNC adapter with box. I got this and really don't need it for my area. I thought one of my local freq went to digital is why I couldn't pick it up with my Uniden 92xlt...
What do yall think about the Stryker 655HP? Would you choose it over a Galaxy Radio like the 94HP? Do they have the cold solder joints and things like Galaxy has? Is Stryker a good quality radio? Thanks for any info.
