    Wanted: Cobra 148gtl rf gain/swr cal control

    The price of parts are thru the roof everywhere and on top of that suppliers are becoming fewer and fewer. Id suck it up, pay the price and get what i need to get radios back together. I've personally known Ken since the 1980's, i lived just a mile from his shop by the Kalamazoo Fairgrounds and...

    Taking bets on where Fine Tune pops up next

    Deadbeat in the deserts problem is too much bad talking others. Its been a couple years now since I bought my d-rail 955 and the only audio complaint i ever got was when i had a dead mic battery. With the echo off people say its like im sitting next to them.

    Taking bets on where Fine Tune pops up next

    Yeah he finally popped up on my recieve a week or two ago, same old crap too. Im back on sideband alot since Peakaboo rebuilt the 500v i blew all 4 toshibas out of a few months ago. He was nice enough to modify it with his bad ass biasing circuit that he applies directly to the heatsink and it...

    WTB Texas Star meter

    Yeah i saw those but as usual its an aftermarket knockoff and if you read the description as the seller says amp face has to be modified for it to fit properly. Im not interested in modifying the face if at all possible so thats why I posted here. I appreciate the look out though.

    WTB Texas Star meter

    Anyone have a working used one kicking around? Maybe on a blown up amp? The few i can find new dont quite fit. From what im seeing you need to modify the bezel. This amp is modified enough inside id like to keep the outside original. To make a long story short i sent this amp off to Peakaboo...

    Would like to see some pictures of your pet's.

    I TNVR ( trap neuter vaccinate and release) the feral cats in my neighborhood whenever possible and every once in a while a kitten will show up. My roomie found this little guy by our trash cans about 9 months ago and hes made himself right at home. No name, i just call him Turd.

    Windows liquor? Huh?

    Nope its window liquors, no 's' on window. He says you can make a fine drink from distilling old nursing home windows. He said people seem to like the ones from facilities that still allow smokers as thats where the best flavors come from. Some say its reminds them of grandma's house, Marlboros...

    Beware of superhawkwss6 on Ebay

    It depends on your description of the item. You can list it as parts/repair but if you put in your description "works as should" or anything that ebay decides to be leading the buyer to think it works as it should it will be covered under ebay 90 seller beware policy.

    "idiot" blocking up ch 19.

    I've been home sick with the coof for the last week and haven't felt much like being out of bed let alone sitting in the shack listening to all that noise. I turn the radio on when im taking care of daily chores morning and evening . Maybe im just lucky that i havent heard $1.63 the "I can't...

    "idiot" blocking up ch 19.

    The day i posted about him getting evicted was the last day i heard him. He was low on signal and modulation crappy. He was complaining that he was transmitting from under a metal roof and "things aren't going well for me" is what i remember him saying.
