What would be a safe price for one "not working, estate sale, no cords, needs cleaned" on eBay? To me, almost $80 shipped is kinda high for a risk...

E R switch

"Elephino"

Anyone have any idea on what that is for? I tried searching, but no luck. The only hit I found the answer was the same as if you crossed a rhino and an elephant... :coffee:

Yeah, that's a little more involved.. I like simple in the mobile. Just have to make a list I guess and start garage sale shopping and hope for the best.

Looking at options for a SSB radio, like the Uniden PC122, President AX144, etc. How good are these options? Are they worth the $60+ they are getting on eBay?? I know they're older, so who knows what's been done to them, what shape caps are in.. I saw one untested, no cords, "estate sale", dirty...

Thats what I'm thinking. Just trying to find a place for the tx250 in the CJ is hard. It gets wet inside once in a while.

I'm going to start with coding, as it is a job I can work from home and usually with flex time so that we can work around my wife's schedule and avoid daycare/sitters with our kids.

Well, this is my 2nd time thru college - first was my Associates in Automotive, graduated in 99. This is a career change for me - Health Information Management. Been working on cars and semi trucks the past 20+ years, time for something easier on the body... I'm a couple weeks shy of 44....

Just so you know, I have copy/pasted this to a Word Doc for future study. Finals week is coming up (all of my classes are online) so I can dig into it later. All of this advice is not for naught!

Ok, thank you. Long way to say "No, they didn't give you full instructions for the modification" ;) I appreciate it. I have 2 of these, and I have kinda decided to make this one my guinea pig. I did the talkback resistor on it, using the PA/CB switch to turn it on/off, but somehow turning the...

I have found some different things listed for these, one is that you just replace the final with a 1969. According to the schematic from CBtricks I saved, it looks like the driver, TR8, is a 1957. I tested the 1969 before installing, and it showed a Hfe of 143. My output went from a 2-5W to a...

I believe mine is an older model, as it doesn't have any switches fro mode or voltage output.

OK, I have one of these batteries, I use for backup "whatever". I have an Anderson style connector on it to connect it to my CB setup, or I can connect it to my battery backup supply that I have the internet modem and router on. Can I use the Powermax to keep it maintained? Like if I connect...

:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Yes, I can be easily entertained when Jameson is involved :whistle:

I don't remember the process they did, it was last year I read about it somewhere. See the "Useful Testing Apps" sticky for idea. For mine, I just need the signal strength tuned. Frequency and such is still ok.

I really wish we'd have kept the old antenna rotor setup from my mom's place - I grew up about 15-20 minutes from the Alliance plant, EVERYONE had those rotors when I was growing up. Mom had to have the chimney reworked some, the bricks were starting to come loose in areas, and the antenna tower...

I know a freq generator with a certain output is the standard, but is there a way to do it if you do not have one? I remember reading people using audio thru the mic instead of a signal gen to set certain parts. I do have a 'scope, and I know you adjust until you have the highest reading with...

So if I have my radio's audio set at, say 2:00, on the knob, but then turn the amp on and I have to turn it back to 10:00 or even 9:30, would this be what you are referring to? My DX939 does this, but not the DX88, both using Silver Eagle D104s. Switching mics doesn't make any difference.

...just here reading and learning... learning and reading..... now I have to find me a decent usable set of headphones - my Bluetooth ones won't really work well for this... Now, where'd I leave that RF power knob at....
