Anyone got a phone number for DTB or Doug's Custom CB shop. or even know how I can get in touch with someone on here that goes by Radio Tech?

you can send radio Tech a PM to get his attention. it might take him a day to get back to you. he has a full time job also. he even has his own forum also if you do not hear from him I can get ahold of him on cbtricks or his forum.

I sent him a email to come over here to talk to you.

No worries. Doug is a good tech along with others here as well. I can name a few, just the ones I could remeber off the top of my head at the time. Hopefullly it works out for you. Have a good one.
 
The shop in Troutman is I-77 exit 42. Exit 42 electronics. Good tech from what I hear. The best in the area is the guy in Elkin off exit 82 or 85. Ray is his name and he's the guy known for building the old Elkin linears. That guy is the only person many guys I know will let touch their equipment. He's on elk spur road. He's not at a truck stop though so you may have to bring it by 4 wheeler or maybe mail.
 
Every time I sent him a radio he emails me and says it's beyond repair.

I hate email, call me.

And short of being crushed or burnt nothing is beyond repair.

One day I may try him again, but it would be to buy a new radio, not a repair.

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned

    Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
