I have a 22" shaft and a 27" and never had an issue. Both mounted on the right rear corner of the bed.j There are some audio clips here on the forum between Robb and I doing some testing with both of them and a couple Francis whips on both 10 and 12 meters. The results was surprising. I have...

It was a bit better today but still a bit rough. I talked to several guys on 38 then @DXman , World Radio 178 Larry was calling me, we moved up to .410 and had a qso through the noise. All around 1pm Pacific time. 73 Jeff

Last time I talked to Kale on the phone he was still building about a year ago. He has a guy that comes in and helps him with machine work but he was still at it. He used to ship direct, I can dig up his phone number when I get home if you need it. 73 Jeff

Not a Cobra it is the Courier Centurion CB base station. The green sticker should say 12 Watts output, 25 watts input. They rated things different in the early days, but it was a common CB base station 73 Jeff

Yesterday most of the day was dead. Then in the evening around 8 pm suddenly short skip popped up on 38. I talked to about a dozen stations in So Cal, Ventura county, then a station over by LAX, followed by Bill on the beach who was in there for about 15 min. After that the signals dropped and...
