    CB FM Mode

    Every time the FM mode is used, Major E.H. Armstrong gets a little tickle ;)

    Stryker 955 V 2

    Amazing (tech support reaching out to you first). I don't think I've ever had something like that happen on any complaint about any product.

    Why are mobile CB radios stuck in the 70s?

    And it was the best am/ssb mobile ever made with the Cobra logo on it, in my biased opinion (IMBO). ;)

    DX Engineering

    I agree, their coax is top notch, so is their service and customers support. They usually have interesting topics on their YouTube and Facebook channels on Tuesdays as well. Living in SE Texas, and with an Ham Radio Outlet being around the Dallas area I can get next day delivery via standard UPS...

    CB/11 meter nets

    Thursday nights, there's the Central Maine SSB net. Starts @ 8 p.m. ch.37LSB as well, the New Hampshire Sideband Club runs a net Thursday evening but I forget whether or not it's channel 38 or 36 LSB. Both live-cast their nets on their respective Facebook pages. Lastly, when skip conditions are...

    Have you ever heard of the radio before ?

    Yep, it's like they were separated at birth

    Galaxy DX radios

    Maybe they picked the wrong factory in Vietnam? All of the Presidents are made in that country and seem to be decent quality.

    DOES ANYONE REMEMBER AES (Amateur Electronic Supply) AND THEIR CATALOG?

    Me too. After graduating high school (and I mean 3 days after) my family moved to Texas. I was going to live in an efficient apartment back home (CT.) so I packed up all my CB stuff and it got moved along with everything else, and I bought that Midland, just to use to keep in touch with friends...

    DOES ANYONE REMEMBER AES (Amateur Electronic Supply) AND THEIR CATALOG?

    I believe AES closed down in 2016. But more to the point, when I first became interested in ham radio (late 70's, early 80's) their catalog was one of the best, with plenty of pages of eye candy, along the lines of the Sears Wish Book. Having been into CB radio since 1968 I'd find one or 2 pages...

    Mag mount Mobil antenna.

    So what antenna did you get?

    Wouldn't you know..............

    If you're a month behind on the Testosterone shots it will hurt/slowdown the recovery process. Being a month behind can really drag your system down to where you're fatigued and, not thinking as clearly as you normally would. I'm just based what I said in regards to my own TT issues. If you're...

    Geomagnetic storm on the way

    It's weird as heck when that happens. Usually it's when my back is turned, typing on the PC keyboard, listening to whatever DX there is and then...silence... Even now, after being a veteran of many solar storms, it'll still get to me ("Arrrrgh...it broke)

    Rarest cb / export you’ve owned

    So many years, so many radios. Not necessarily having to be exports I've had a mix of rare legal CB's and exports: General Radiotelephone SB-72 E.F. Johnson 350 (2ch SSB "only" mobile)* Stoner Pro-40 CPI-2000* Lafayette Telsat 25* Midland 13-778 3ch SSB WT President Grant II "Premium" President...

    Mag mount Mobil antenna.

    As long ask you're not going to over 2,000 watts, the Performer 2000 is very good antenna.

    OKAY I NEED SERVICE MANUAL FOR COURIER CENTURION PLL 40 CH

    I guess it could, but I didn't think so because the Gladiator PLL40 mobile had the same board as the Centurion.

    FOR SALE - Tram Titan IV with original box and papers.

    Is that a solid-state or tube or half'n half radio?

    Wouldn't you know..............

    Wow, that really sucks. It sounds like both you and your Dad will get through it w/o any other bad stuff from COVID's travel bag. I got it in June, fatigue and a fever ranging from 99-105 for a few days, but nothing else. My wife caught it from me and while she didn't ever have a fever, she had...
