Thanks everyone ... and WOW Andy , you put in some time for researching it ... lol . To answer the 1st question ... I am using a 2m/440 duplexer , hooked up correctly ... and it's hooked up to a 2 meter antenna . I put my FT-897D on the same frequency that the TW-4000a is on . They're both on...

Actually this radio still has it's original stock mic with it

I was testing it out on Simplex to begin with . I'd key the Kenwood up and say my call sign , and I can see the keyup on the Kenwood's display . The audio bar moves with my voice ... but I'm not hearing any audio coming from any of the receiving radios I used (I tested it with a few different...

So I recently purchased a Kenwood TW 4000a , and I realize it's a 30 year old radio ... that's one of the reasons I wanted it . It receives good ... and it has keyup , but no transmit . When I key the mic , I can see the signal bar moving with my audio , but I don't hear any audio transmitting...

The vacuum tube to the right of the circled one is the tube that was changed.

Hi everyone , I know I'm going to feel stupid for asking this question . But I have an old Heathkit SB-102 and it was working fine and then all of a sudden it stopped working properly .When I turn it on , the power only goes as far as the tube circled in the picture , and no...

Thanks Nomad , I let him know and he said he's going to check it out . I'll let you know how he made out once he gets it done .

I have a friend with an RCI 2990 that has an issue which he can't figure out . So I thought I'd ask here , and see if anyone else might have any ideas as to what's going on with it . He says that his 2990 works good on all the modes (AM,FM,USB & CW) like it should . But on Lower Sideband it...

I've been trying to find out what the very first solid state radio was , and I'm having a hard time finding any information about it . Does anyone know who , or what the very first solid state radio was ?

I checked D18 through D21 and they're all in good shape . So any ideas as to what I should check next ? Doesn't this radio have a potentiometer that can adjust the receive for the AM side ?

Thanks Nomad , I'll check those out real quick .

Hi Everyone , I have a really nice Ranger AR-3500 , the 30 watt version . And it works , and preforms as it should , except the receive on AM is EXTREMELY loud . Even with the RF gain turned almost all the way down , stations that were already loud to me , sound really garbled , and other...

Also , I don't find a lot of information about them online . I basically just find Browning Golden Eagles that are for sale , or videos of people talking on them , but very little information . I thought there would be more information about them online with as popular as they are .

Thanks for the heads up on the Mark 4 ... I'm actually leaning more towards a Mark II , to be honest . So any info on those would be greatly appreciated. I'm very familiar with buying older radios . I have quite a few old timers around here , both tube and solid state . I love the older...

Thank you Eldorado

how do I find that video on Youtube Kahuna ? I have a Randy and I'd like to check it out .

Hi everyone , I've been looking at the Browning Golden Eagle Mark III , IV , and V radios for many years . I always wanted one of them , but never jumped at the chance to grab one ... partially because I like to know that if I'm spending a lot of money on a radio , that it...

to answer the question that was originally asked in this post ... I've been making videos for Youtube making sure that people know that CB radio is not dead , and to help those that are new to CB find good equipment , and learn more about CB radio . I'm not sure if posting the link is allowed ...

I've already got that kit Mike . In fact I ordered it from you . :)

I have an old Cobra 2000 GTL that means a lot to me . It was once my grandmothers , and I inherited it after she passed a few years ago . It sat for a few years before she passed , and then it sat for a few more years before I inherited it . I did run it for awhile without any issues , but then...
