    Modifications to a 23 channel radio, illegal?

    Any modifications to a CB are illegal if you intend to use it on the CB band. The designs are tested and approved by the FCC before being approved for sale, any changes to that design voids that approval. If the manufacturer did anything they probably had some type of FCC approval for the new...

    The Invasion

    It looks like the kind of thing that George Soros would try to pull off, he may or may not have been involved in initiating it but you know he's probably helping to support it now. It would be to big an opportunity for him to pass up.

    BBi explains antennas. (put on your high boots)

    You just need one of those exposed coil antennas, the reason they work so well is because as the signal goes around that coil the centrifugal force throws the RF off the side of the antenna before it can make it to the top and go straight up.(y)

    meanwhile out in the garage ...

    The bike you put that in will put EJ Potter to shame.(y) PS: The electrocuted rat fan community is actually quite a bit larger than most people would believe.:whistle:

    The Invasion

    This is the key right here, it's not the law abiding citizens from those countries that are crossing borders illegally. As it stands we are restricting the honest immigrants while giving preferential treatment to the lawbreakers and criminals.

    What does "barefoot" or "stock" really mean to people?

    That's the way I always understood it. An external amp was called either "shoes", a "boot" or a "footwarmer", barefoot meant running without any of these external power adders. A higher powered radio was just that, a higher powered radio. With no external amp you were still barefoot and mods...

    Where in the world is... HardDrive?

    That's actually not bad, something like a W2IHY EQ and a decent mic should be all you need to sound pretty good. Aren't most radios closer to the 3.2-3.5khz mark? Do you remember what it did on the low end?

    Where in the world is... HardDrive?

    From what I've heard of him he has what I would call good ragchew audio, a step above communication grade but not into what I would call hifi territory. Credit where credit is due he sounds good. I like the sound of a well set up hifi station but not enough to get involved with the amount of...

    Where in the world is... HardDrive?

    Problem is they never worry about whether or not the truck will be moving tomorrow. PS: Any thoughts/opinions on that Uniden 885?

    Excellent Condition??

    I believe the word you're looking for is "patina", a good patina can easily quadruple the price of a vintage item.;)
