Hi, Looks good, I guess you want to run some decent cable straight to the battery for that Amp!!! Still can't make up my mind on which radio to go with? Is there any other modern presently made SSB type Cb's I should look at or is Uniden about it?

Hi, No one had anything to say about my antenna pick. It's suppose to be one of the best for my application? I guess I could put a stock 980 in with the new antenna and see what I think before any amp business???

Hi, Thanks Gentlemen! If I wanted to run a small amp with the 980, I would have to have the AM set to about 1.5 amps? What is a decent trouble free 40 or so small amp I could use? Would I need a fan? Thanks!

Hi, I guess "AMP" is a dirty word???

Hi, Well from what I see, it does not peak very well? I think 4 AM and 12 SSB is about it???

Hi, Thanks! The Uniden 980 was mentioned and I'm looking at it now? Admittedly I'm more old school but if it is a quality product??? Any thoughts?

Hi, I'm now looking (researching) at the Uniden Bearcat 998 SSB. Anyone have any thoughts on it? I'm more old school, but if it is quality???

Hi, Thanks! I heard the Uniden Grant XL was dead stable on SSB... And I don't see the need for a counter on a truck mounted radio??? Seems you would run the clarifier by ear and watch the road?

Hi, I heard about the drifting, but did not know how true it was? (different opinions?) How about this olf Radio shack SWR....Too cheap??? I'm also looking at a daiwa 101 on a bid...

Hi, Thanks Sonoma! I heard the Grant LX was better because it was made in the Philippines and the LT wasn't??? (I assumed CHINA?) I'll do some more research!!! What about a tuned and peaked new Galaxy DX-959???

Hi, Hmmm...I heard the Grant LT was not as good as the Grant XL? Something to do with CHINA I guess? I saw the Diawa SWR meters on E-Bay but they are a little pricey? I'll look again! The Antenna I came up with is a Sirio from Italy. I want to use a magnet base on the roof of my...

Hi, Thanks Gentlemen! 222, that is what I was looking for! Thanks for the info, I think the radio is still working... I need a new antenna, to try it. While I have you guys... Can anyone reccommend an affordable SWR meter? I see the older Heath-kits, and Midlands that are around...

Hi, I'm not totally unfamilar with a soldering iron, but... I'm up to my eyeballs already with other projects. I was hoping to get more detailed $$$ info on repairs here, but everyone seems as lost as I am??? Or does not want to discuss $$$ which I understand I guess? I might make...

Hi, Thanks Gentlemen! The question in my mind is, how much money spent before you are better off just buying a new CB? I'm looking for an older model Uniden, admittedly but only because of the feedback I have seen in performance and build quality, and SSB! One of my other hobbies is...

Hi, I have an older Cobra 25 LTD Classic. It works but has a channel light out. It's probably long over due for a clean resto, tune and peak. Looking at getting a Uniden Grant XL so I have SSB. Wondering if it is feasable money wise to send in the Cobra and get it fixed for a back up...

Hi, Looking for a clean Uniden Grant XL! Thanks!

Hi, Thanks, was hoping a Member here might have one? Seems like rolling the dice to go E-Bay???
