    Sams PhotoFacts Collection

    Dan, I don't suppose you would have the CB-78, Regency CR-142? EDIT: I see further back that you listed that one as not in your collection. I may have to buy it, if I do, I can pass it on to you. EDIT AGAIN!: I see that I must have purchased it already from ebay, says it's out for delivery...

    Maco 300 2x5 fuse size?

    Need to know how many amps I need for the line side (110v) glass fuse. It has a 20 amp in it but that seems too high to me. Thanks

    Regency cr-142 alignment

    Hi there. Does anyone have any info for this old rig? I have a friend that is interested in the hobby, never used a radio, and eager to "join the club" so to speak, I'm gonna give it to them as a start.

    Update. I called Friday and the nice lady said they had some computer issues and that it would be sent out right away. I received a UPS ship notification shortly after and it should be here by Tuesday. I feel better now. I will start ordering from them now.

    Looking for the Sams PhotoFacts in CB-222 for the Uniden Washington...

    I use the Sam's for the 142gtl but if you need it specifically for the Uniden Washington, the folks at Sam's owe me a favor, I can try to cash it in for you.

    Realistic TRC-450 new in box will it work?

    Relax y'all, they're are all dead. Guy who owns this radio doesn't have cockroaches (except these) but the guy he got it from a few years ago, he could use some advice. But that smell, it still lingers!

    Cobra 87 GTL No TX Output

    Check the polarized electrolytic caps for correct orientation, probably the most common cause after recap is ya got one backwards. Or installed a faulty capacitor.

    Parts storage, organizers and bins..

    Would you share your storage solutions for electronics components at or near your bench? I can't find a good storage bin option that fits discrete axial capacitors that isn't too small, requiring the bending of leads, possibly using multiple divisions for 1 value, or too big, wasting space. I...
