    Cb'ers ring

    This is funny cause when I worked for Pepsi years ago, they did that with Coke bears on the route trucks if they sold more Pepsi in a store than the Coke guy did. Like “they” sold it... but funny anyway. Was really funny when I’d crawl in a route truck with a Diet Coke... they hate that, it’ll...

    11 meter is very quiet?

    Familiar looking stuff there...hmm.

    Cb'ers ring

    I think that’s the ring you get when you finish that online electronics school.

    New Ranger 2950dx D6

    Revive this old post... they are IRFZ24N for those interested still.

    69ffc4 conversion

    And for anyone interested in what the RT1 really is... IRFZ24N Don’t know if that’s known or not, just thought I’d toss that in here. Don’t intend to threadjack, I lost my hijacking and derailing partner.

    FCC should just open up 11meters as a Citizens experimental band.

    I don’t think any radio splatters until you start crank in’ up the 1.21 jiggawatts on the golden Dosy meter you won from the golden screwdriver jockey devil. I got carried away inside my head, I wish y’all could’ve seen it.

    BBI

    I agree. The man does nice work and he has a passion for it, I don’t really see the arrogance either. I’d love to have a box made this man but I can’t afford it right now. Don’t get me started on a Prime built box...

    Remember the Good Ole days?

    Well.... I don't remember any of them. Hmm.

    Which one of you guys made this monster?

    That’s as ugly as...doing you know what, you know where.

    Another from Ranger RCI-X9

    They’ve stole my idea. I knew ordering all those white channel segments from China was gonna spark interest.

    Wanted : Galaxy DX-77

    Well I got a very nice 77 from Low_Boy, I don’t think I could’ve asked for a better radio unless I got a NIB NOS one. Thanks!! I paid. He shipped. I got. That means I is happy.

    Sold as-is and No returns due to parts swappers

    Very similar story that I have except I told eBay I’d cancel my credit cards and my bank account if that radio came back opened or tinkered with at all. Funny, 3 days later the dispute was cancelled and called in my favor. But this went on for 3 months with me waiting on the radio to be...

    SUPERSTAR 121 & OLD HOOKER 100 REPAIR & RESTORE

    I just like to know how you made those faceplates, that’s pretty interesting.

    Sold as-is and No returns due to parts swappers

    As Santa said about the M&M’s - they do exist. And eBay doesn’t offer seller protection, sure they say they do but let me be the one to tell you, the lie detector determined that was a lie. I have a lengthy story to back this up. It’s true that there’s a lot of copy pasta on eBay but...

    Wanted : Galaxy DX-77

    A bezel is easy to get but that faceplate isn’t available anymore

    Wanted : Galaxy DX-77

    I’m looking for a 77. I’d like one with a faceplate that’s intact and in fairly nice shape. eBay isn’t doing so hot lately hunting this radio. Anybody got one laying around?
