So, is built-in talk back on any given CB Radio a perfect representation of what you sound like over the air, or is it pretty much deceptive? I have used talk back in two different ways. 1. Using headphones with the radio's talk back, and 2. Using headphones with a walkie-talkie that is close...

In all seriousness, can one or more of our pro's out here please respectfully explain what this good ole boy is doing in this video. Obviously, what he has done resulted in something. You tell me what. Since the beginning of time, I've heard of people "tuning their coax". I just want to hear...

Okay, I know this is going to be a stretch. Literally a needle in a haystack. 30 years ago I had this book. I don't remember the title. It was a smaller hardcover book. Maybe 8 x 10, green or blue cover with black lettering I think, and only 25 or so pages. It featured several different...

Actually it's about a half a Pringles can. 8 turns of coax with fish tank hose for spacing. Clear Gorilla tape, with the sticky side out around the can to hold the coax and tubing onto the can, then another layer over the outside to seal the deal. I sell them for $99.99. Free shipping. Just...

President McKinley USA Mobile Radio, adjusted for 100% modulation. (It came off the assembly line with 80%.) Radio has variable RF Output. .5W to 3.8W from the factory. Turned up to 4W to 18W variable output. Solid radio, packed with all the features including the most innovative onboard SWR...

So, are the regulations on setting up a Base Antenna (Imax 2000) in public places? I found a steel plate that you drive one wheel of your car over, with a shaft for an antenna mast. I think it would be a blast to, let's say, run an Imax 2000 on 20 foot of mast somewhere like a park, or more...

My favorite mic. Just came in today. Always liked the sound. I'm not much into echo (unless I'm really trying to anger someone), but a slight reverb is cool. I remember these always being loud, and a bit raspy/distorted. (How I like my audio.) I had a friend who said he expanded the frequency...

Nice little score from ARC Thrift Store. I love old CB stuff. I wonder what this cost when it was new. Seems like it is good quality, for it is very heavy. It reads the same as my cheap Chinese meter, so bye-bye cheap Chinese Meter, hello new Japanese meter!

I'm getting a 1.8 to 2.0 SWR on 11 Meters using a little 100 Watt amp, when the amp is OFF, and when I turn the amp ON, the SWR drops to 1.4. That's kind of crazy, no?
