    Anyone know what kind of radio uses this kind of plug ?

    That's a pattern I don't recognize. Just a guess- Turner mics were popluar for old paging systems and it could be wired for that.

    Weak solar cycles = another big decline of the 11 meter local & DX population

    CB was a lot of fun pre-mid 70's. You knew everyone in your local area, no asshats, no squeal during band openings from a million people talking at once. Life was good. Then it went to shite. I blame truckers and Betty Ford for the demise of Citizens Band radio :)...

    I ordered on 4/27 and have not received a confirmation from HF signals for the order or DHL tracking info. How long was it before you guys received confirmation from them? I'm not in a rush but would like to know they have my order.

    Rather Poor Customer Service From Yeti.com

    They do have detailed specs on the site if you want to compare. Did you ask about anything specific? Also yeti.com sells coolers and insulated drink ware. yeticomnz.com sells radios.

    Tired of being an amatuer with a golden screwdriver?

    I guess if all the screwdrivers don't fix it you just whack it with the hammer.

    ASTROPLANE best vertical antenna ever?

    I won't disagree. I never owned one but had friends close to where lived then who had them and never heard anyone complain about installing one.

    ASTROPLANE best vertical antenna ever?

    What brand of screwdriver antenna is this

    I'm thinking home brew. It looks pretty crude.
