I can "Try" recording it , and posting it . It's nothing like street lights , or transformers . This starts every morning at the exact same time (8:30 am) , and ends every night at the exact same time (7:45 pm) . Which rules out street lights . It's timing is so precise that you can literally...

Look for "Raccoon's Radio Ranch" on Youtube

The FCC sent me a reply to my 1st report on the interference saying thanks but no thanks . So I submitted a 2nd report informing them that I'm a Ham operator . What the noise level is at , and that if there were any emergency traffic , this level of interference would make it impossible to...

I do have Polish ancestry , maybe I should consider relocating ... lol

You're right , I do live in a "weird country" ... I live in America , the land of "push the blame onto the other guy" .

I notified the FCC immediately , they blew it off the very next day after I filed the report ... and they canceled the ticket in less than 24 hours .

On May 26th at around 5 pm I started getting 8-9 pounds of noise on my radios receive . It goes from the 40 meter band all the way to the 2 meter band . It starts at 8 am every morning and it goes on until 8 pm every night . It's exact , like something's on a timer . There's never a break from...

I posted this previously , but I believe I posted it in the wrong area ... so I'm reposting it here . I have a Heathkit SB-102 that I run with the HP-23(B) power supply . The SB-102 has had some updating done to it on the inside ... but not everything has been updated . I've talked about this...

That's how it says in the Astatic wiring book to wire that mic up to the Collins and the Drake , so that's how I wired it up ... and it didn't work .

would that be ? : Tip - Red Ring - White Sleeve - Shield & Blue

Number 5 wouldn't be an issue if one of the wires had shielding ... but none of them had any . I wired it all up and left pins 5 , 8 , and 11 a no connect . There were 11 pins and 8 wires in the cord that came with it , and none of them were shielded . So I figured that was the only possible...

So I bought an SB-102 , which didn't come with an HP-23 power supply , or their connecting cord . I ordered an HP-23B power supply , and I also ordered the 11 pin connecting cord separately , because the power supply also didn't have the cord with it either . Now the cord shows up unassembled ...

I'd like to say thank you to BJ radionut for posting that ad for the HP-23B power supply ... I ended up buying that one . Thanks BJ

BJ radionut - Thanks for sharing that ad . I messaged W8QW about his power supply , and I haven't got a reply back from him yet . I also had another guy offer me a power supply and the speaker together . I replied to him yesterday , but I still haven't heard anything back from him yet either ...

I was afraid of that ... I mean , I was hoping it might be possible ... but I figured it probably needed to use that power supply . It's pretty obvious that I purchased an expensive paper weight/dust collector . That's all it's going to be for quite awhile . Because the only place I've found the...

I just bought a nice Heathkit SB-102 , and I can't wait to use it . But , at the moment it doesn't have a power supply with it , I do plan on finding the matching power supply/speaker for it . But in the mean time , is it possible to run this radio using a regular power supply ? If so ...

I thought my amplified Gray Base would be a nice match up ... but when I put it on my tube radios , I was told that it sounded "Tinny". I mean "Maybe" the mic element in the mic is bad , but it sounded ok to me when it was on my Pearce Simpson Bengal.

I have a couple of vintage tube CB radio's here that I've talked about here on the forum before . They both have their stock mics , but I was wondering what mics would be the best to wire up , and use with them ? One is my Lafayette Comstat 23 , and the other one is my Kris 23 + . I know they...

When I saw that post , I was going to say .... mine isn't for sale ;) My wife hates when I buy radios because I don't sell them .... lol

$650 what ?? are you saying that's what I paid for it ? Or are you trying to get me to sell it for that much ?
