Yeah it's too bad he doesn't give away some more info for so MANY out there having this issue, but I get it at the same time.

I have a working 555 I still need to sell off lol. Everything works. I don't plan on keeping the thing.

Did you ever sell your working CB555?

I havent sold it yet. I was randomly thinking about the radio last week, and the fact someone on here asked about it lol.... I should power it up to be sure it still works.

I wish I could sell it locally so I don't have to ship something like that out. I live in Kansas. But I may have no choice.

You will be the very first I notify when I sell it. Thanks for keeping up yer interest in it. I will try and get some pictures of it with it on and check for transmit/receive. Maybe not today but currently going through stuff in the Garage.

He does this for money. Pretty sure its a VCO issue. Dual sided board issues. I have one that transmits fine but receive doesnt work and pins the needle. My other one is a real mess.
