Tube Radio Question

[Raccoon]

Hey Everyone ,
Me and a friend were talking about old tube CB radios the other day , and a question came up .

Does anyone here know what CB radio was the last one to be made with tubes in it ?

Just a guess,................ Siltronix 1011D(rifter)

Cb , I say Browning mkivA, siltronix is a HAM

Siltronix 1011 c & d was a rebadged Swan transceiver, a radio produced and manufactured for CB usage.

Yeah, it had ads for using it on 10 meters, but,.................

The Amateur SWAN sales became so poor, that Swan (the management) decided to simply create a new company, and rename the radio to the 1011 C and D models

As far as a true CB radio they will be 40 channel radios and would say the Browning MK IVA, Tram D201A, and the DAK 10. Circa 1978-79.

I was thinking that too tramd

DAK were not tube radios. They took a very poor Cybernet cb radio board and added tube finals. At best it is a hybred.
