Does anyone have a NOS Francis "AMAZER" CB-50 (grey) for sale. I need two. Found a pair on Ebay a few months ago, and need a couple more. Anyone????

they are certainly good antenna's, but is shipping to you affordable?

I happened upon some cb27's some years back, but they are not triple wound (AFAIK) ,none the less they work great on both 10 and 11

as audio mentioned and unless someone is willing to part with theirs, an estate auction or an old collection in a yet undiscovered location is likely the way ,,,

good luck
 
I'll take a few Amazers as well!!!
Anyone know of any left to be had?
If we got enough orders together could we have original Francis Amazers manufactured?

I do not think the current manufacturer is capable of recreating the cb-50 properly.
They used to taper grind them.
What I was told is that Barjan did not buy the necessary machinery to do it right and that's why they started changing the design after they bought the rights to the name.
It's a great antenna, it's not magic, but it works well and is broad banded.

The Disc Jack was talking about mounted 4 Francis antennas in a small group, all hot.
The dibar mounted 2 of them hot.
I doubt you will find any new old stock of cb-50 antennas, I wish you luck.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
