Quick Turn Around. Can't muster the necessary tone to get the AM 21W PEP the C2000 now achieves; as seen on the shop Bird meter. Only a 5W PEP increase with my voice tone. Everything as tight and fluid as a renewed antique can be expected to be; with polished heat sinks :o It's now officially...

Cobra 2000GTL in the shop for it's 50 year check up, close enough to 50. No feedback on the previous "Negative Peak Compression / Reduced Carrier mod aka npc/rc" inquiry. I'm having the Doc perform the elective surgery in addition to the full revamping, including hardwood floors and crown...

I'm with you, Rwb; didn't start quite as early. I think AudioShockWave summed it up. Got something to add, ground-wire? I'm quite happy with the super bowl on chnl 6. Doesn't interfere with my regular programming; though there is spillage, like that CD horn blaring on 38LSB last night...

Thanks 9C1Driver for your response. I'm finding fault in what makes up a dipole. 1/4λ radiating element and 1/4λ grounding element and it's a 1/2λ dipole; a whole antenna. I've a 5/8λ radiator and a 1/4λ ground element; in immediate contact, effectively so, with the feed point. Makes little...

Freecell said, "...when mic input exceeds this level the gain of the speech stages is reduced and when mic input drops below this level the gain of the speech stages is increased, assuring maximum average power output from the transmitter over a wide range of variables..." My question is: With...

Is what I've assembled here, 5/8λ vertical radiating element with 1/4λ ground radials, an off-center dipole; a complete antenna? A 7/8λ dipole?

"I'm taking one radio with me, and giving one of the other radio's to my daughter. I'll tell her if the skip is right, expect a call from me." "...... And a 9 foot whip on the head stone!" Two grand ideas! I'm leaving my two classics to my daughter and her boys; Cobra 2000 and D-104 Golden...

Not surprising really. I know there's HAMers infiltrating the CB Klan by their use of Q codes. Would you suspect the reversal of infiltration exists. Operators failing to abide with use of Q codes? I've 10M, 2M, and 70cm radios. I infrequently listen to the weekly emergency response...

A few locals here also chat up AM 31; some DXers as well. A write up/article comparing 1/2λ and 5/8λ short range limitations with 5/8λ have me believing it, with my Imax at 23' AGL. I've got the DX range ears. Can't wait to get SY-3 and Imax up to 36'; but, recent BP issues has blocked...

Rick339man said. "I do notice that my older radios (Cobra, Realistic and Uniden) seem to have better ears than the newer ones (all President)". Your'e right! All the RX improvement I've assigned to my Imax 2000 GPK 103 antenna must be shared with my Cobra 2000GTL. The time period between...

Those sellers weren't interested in giving up anything. They went home afterwards and told their wives, "I tried but no body was buying" :eek:

It has become more common today than back in the early 80s. 1984, I belive it was; when People Magazine conducted a survey. Given the toilet bowl it was conducted in and age group included there's no wonder the "Nation's"#1 Hero was Eddie Murphy. Jane Fonda, was in the top 10. Eddie Murphy...

FM Chnl 1, 30, 31? Is there a consensus? Anyone in the colonies hear EU calling 31?

Totally Baffled, I am! Have I misunderstood all my days the meaning "etiquette". Is the subject of etiquette foreign to those having replied, previous. In short "etiquette" is behavioral manners; and a CB Etiquette thread, I would expect to be a discussion on what are prevailing behavioral...

And here it is 2022. http://www.silicon212.org/CB/c2000.htm. Cobra 2000 Peak AM Mod. The Good, Bad, and the Ugly, any comments on effectiveness of this mod? This particular mod published 2008. No comment on this mod since thread started 2008. I'd rather my 2 Pill alone and sufficiently reach...

OK Beetle, I got it. Stay on topic. No exchanging recipes nor mentioning your fly is open. And I won't be mentioning Iron Horse Saloon, Ormond Beach, is a carnival of fun. and miles of 4-wheeler parking

Whiteastro That scooter in your avatar picture looks like a Yamaha 1100 Virago I once rode? I rode it to Datona Bike Week a couple decades ago. Was enjoying a couple frosty ones in an local country pub when a group of Hardly-Ableson riders came in. A few minutes later one of the group asked...

Since we're speaking food. Walmart Great Value (GV) Mac and Cheese, just got better! Made a casserole of 4 browned sliced/diced weiners/hot dogs with 3-4 jalapeños finely chopped and tennis ball sized diced onions. Combined with macaroni; then the big reveal: Combined the GV cheese power...
