    Alternative to Channel 19

    I'd happily talk to them boys up there, I just can't quite get to 0. My clarifier doesn't go that far...

    Alternative to Channel 19

    Even dialing into 41-44 there is still quite a bit of traffic there. I do think it would be nice if the guys on 38 would just use it as a call channel then take it to another channel... I enjoy going to .555 and sandbagging. Guys there will show up, call a few times and state what frequency they...

    epay...radio costs

    I don't bother selling anything there, I do look, and occasionally buy something. I have been looking for one of those black face Uniden Grant XL for years. I've seen only one on fleabay, and it was at a time when I didn't have the extra funds to drop on it.

    Superior Longhorn N6 SSB TX Distortion

    There is one there that has a $300 price tag, it's been there 9+ months. There are 3 others with extras, that don't look so bad, yet have blessed meter lights, one has multiple different colors, all from the same guy. No idea if they've been recapped or just modded. Minimum is about $150. Then...

    Superior Longhorn N6 SSB TX Distortion

    Have you checked fleabay prices on Grant XL lately?? Seen more than a few going for $300+. With shitty blue meter lights and bad mod installations.

    Superior Longhorn N6 SSB TX Distortion

    Seeing all these posts about noisy rx, and crappy TX audio in these newer radios that cost so much, I'm very happy that I haven't jumped in with the crowd, and that I've kept my Grant XL.

    SSB Call Sign?

    Friends decided that our little group needed numbers for cb. The picked the little series, and then their own; I got what was left as I wasn't present for that meeting. They started at 169, the guy who pushed this, took that one. The others picked their numbers 269, 369, 469. Out of the group, I...

    Ranger RCI 29 Base Station

    I like the meter, the red channel display and white frequency counter actually works for me. The frequency counter draws my eye to it, letting me know what frequency the radio is on without looking at the channel display and band selector. The radio itself isn't bad looking, personally I'd...

    A Quick Attaboy....

    I have a few forums I am on. Almost all of the forums I'm on are great, people doing their best to come together and fix a problem someone else is having. Or someone parts with something another member needs/ wants/ will use. Only one of my forums has an issue with the occasional argument, they...

    What would be the reaction if Hams used 11m legally using their calls.

    It depends. Are those hams going to be running type accepted cb radios on 11m? Or whatever ham rig they happen to have? If hams want to get on 11m with a type accepted radio that is clean not run big power, and trybto show others what can be done, awesome!! If they want to show up on 11m with a...

    The radio looks pretty, that's for sure.

    PEOPLE SHOULD LEARN TO HAVE SOME COURTESY !!!

    There are days I just don't turn on the radio because of all the crap out there. Then there are days I turn it on and sit on 42. Just to listen to the guys chat about something or other.

    Any chance you can post pics of the leds? I think that's a cool mod.

    How Much Does It Take To Burn Out A Radio?

    I'd say you'll be fine. Pretty sure it takes more than a few minutes keyed up with no antenna to do any real damage. If I'm wrong, one of the more experienced guys here will set us straight.
