    And there's the 'WINNING' "Vitamin STOOPID" of the day! :rolleyes:

    Uniden 980SSB Review

    For my twice a year interstate drive (the whole reason I was in Buffalo!), the Wilson will do me. For my short hops around the city, I mostly use the radio for the weatherband. I visit a LOTTA hospitals in my work, and I forgot it was up there once, upon entering a parking garage. ONCE. :(...

    Long Distance Consolidated Billing Company

    Got slammed by Crapcast right after I moved to Pittsburgh. Won a judgment with the FCC over it. I LOVE to see slammers get theirs! :mad:

    Uniden 980SSB Review

    I've had mine in my DD Jeep for 2 years now, with no issue. With a little RM203 and a 4' Wilson silver load, I was able to talk from Buffalo to west TX on a sunny afternoon in October last year! Don't get to talk on it often or play with the SSB, so that's the best I've done so far. I'm...

    980 Screen Scratch Fix

    Funny thing about that - I never bothered to peel the factory film off mine. Reading this, I'm glad I didn't!!! :D

    Antenna Mount re-visited.

    Because plenty of numbnuts live around me, it's why I've gone to QD's on my antennas. When I'm not physically IN the vehicle, the antennas are stored. NO guarantee a numbnut won't come by looking for something to break - or break INTO - but my MIRRORS would be more tempting - and visible -...

    Looking at another radio,you can never have to many.

    I run a bone stock 949 in my RC, with a 400w Fatboy - in case I get STUCK in the middle of nowhere - and have no complaints. The SWR is perfect with a 102" whip, and no one's had a problem hearing me yet. I think you'll be pleased with the 900 series.

    148 5 to 4 pin mic?

    I've got a bunch of converters lying around - if it'll save someone the hassle of E-Bay, drop me a line, and we'll work it out faster. (y)

    $1 for a Programming Cable???

    GUARANTEE a $1 cable could fit in a small padded envelope for under $2!

    Auto antenna tuner with a mobile export?

    Next-to-last one - it's a '92. First year for the 318 Magnum, so the MPFI makes wheeling at funny angles easier; no fuel running out of the float bowl of the carb! I'm just jealous you get to run desert! LOT more opportunities for dents & creases in the Alleghenies. I'd like to NOT wad it up...

    Auto antenna tuner with a mobile export?

    A gutter tie-down is no guarantee that WON'T happen, but it doesn't hurt. ;) Here's the one on my RC in my avatar. But I notice newer trucks like yours, no longer have gutters!!! :eek:

    Anybody Used A New Uniden Mic??

    Anybody Used A New Uniden Mic??

    Workin' goooooooood.... :cool: It was actually an impulse purchase - no plug when I bought it, so it was sitting in a drawer gathering dust. When I got eh Uniden, with it's odd number of pins, it seemed the perfect time to wire up the Astatic for it! I use that combo in my DD Jeep - no one...
