Thanks for the welcome! :)
Just getting back into 2-way radio after a 35-year absence. CB seems to have died in the Fraser Valley in this time.

Hey! There are still some folks on sideband in the Fraser Valley, but it's a shadow of what it was 35 years ago! I'm up on Cortes Island and I have maybe 6 or 7 locals within sideband range of me (80 miles or so). AM CB up here died totally and completely in the very early 2000's.

Dmans, I just ran into an old thread back in 2018 where you mentioned looking for SAMS CB-207 because you needed the info on the Sears Roadtalker in that volume.

Did you ever GET the SAMS info on that radio....... or have you sold/given up on it since then?

I have it in PDF and can arrange to get it to you...... if you still need it!!!!

I’m not a professional anything just a lover of the whole world of radio communication and I have a lot of respect for people who have the knowledge to do this I learn every day at least I try to, been disabled and divorced since 2009 and have a lot of time on my hands and not much money so I’m always building, trying, experimenting and I appreciate any help and I will be donating to this site

9/15/25 Many Improvements last few months on 2x 4cx300a amp. PTP wiring cleaned-up; RF pass-thru perfect, Xmit below 2. Resistive input dropped to 700 Ohms; Moddrd LPF relay board for switched Input works well all 4 bands 10,11,20,40. Still on DL, antennas soon. Blower runs quit, Slow Receive, Fast Xmit. Triac based dimmer added 70uH 2A toroidal inductor big help motor smoothness. Amp becoming useable.
