    If I do anything at all with that one it will most likely be to "fix it" if it is broke and align it to spec. This is just a fun hobby for me..... gettin' back to my electronic roots!

    Trying to identify this amp...

    I sort of had that feeling when I saw that the tube only has 30 watts of plate dissipation MAX. Thanks much for the info.

    Trying to identify this amp...

    THank you for EXTREMELY quick work. I have gone looking for it and found other models and see that you are right on the money. The faceplates all have that same look and the cabinet is red as well. I just can't find anything on this specific model.... at least not yet. Any idea what it will...

    Dan, I need to ask a favor. In that batch of radios I bought there is a Realistic TRC-24C. I do not have that one available and even CB Tricks does not have anything on this radio. It would be in CB-65. If you have that one, could I get the whole package on the TRC-24C (It looks like they...

    Trying to identify this amp...

    This is the "mystery amp" that came in yesterday's lot purchase. I don't see any "branding" on it... but it looks too "professionally done" to be home brew... but I don't know. Does anybody recognize this thing??? Bob

    late afternoon yesterday, searching for "CB RADIO" on the marketplace... an ad only 16 minutes old popped up showing 2 pictures of a ton of gear (several tubs with mobile radios, antennas, meters) and a small table with several radios on it..... all for $50. I made contact and she said it had...

    Wow. Those things have gotten "up there"!!!! I have a 2SC1969 paired Magnum S9 and I didn't give anywhere NEAR that for it!!!!!!! Is that what they are getting for them these days?????

    This guy must be smokin' some stuff....

    I asked him if the item in the picture is the item he is selling...... he hasn't responded yet. It was only a couple of hours ago. It could be DAYS before he does. But ...if he says yes.... I'm gonna be out of this house so fast.... I'll draw a 30" vacuum on the room I was in at the...

    This guy must be smokin' some stuff....

    Then I ran into another ad.... $5. The guy was describing an old "scanner" radio. Describing controls, describing the BNC antenna connector..... the received freq range..... ALL of it... described a scanner. But the picture???? It was an MFJ-259B antenna analyzer and the picture showed...

    This guy must be smokin' some stuff....

    I know how that works. A while back I bought a couple of Cobra 25's, a couple of Cobra 29's and a Cobra 21 (all 40 channel).... JUST FOR THE PARTS. They were "ugly as home-made sin". Even if they WERE working.... THESE would be the "ugly puppies" that nobody picks to take home. They are just...

    This guy must be smokin' some stuff....

    sadly.... I don't deserve to have such 'mint' pieces in my collection. ('mint' coming from PAVE-mint ... which these seem to have spent a LOT of time there!!!!!) [edited to add] truly... I am the kind of nut that would like to have a radio like that 21 in my stash.... but not at $150. No way.

    Just got a BK Precision 2831A for the bench, and...

    I have a question. As far as the meter goes I took it out and ran it through it's basic paces and it works like it should. Then I thought about something...... I used a DMM to check continuity between the BLK banana jack and the "safety ground" on the line cord. TOTALLY OPEN!!!!! No...
