    Ranger RCI 29 Base Station

    I like the meter, the red channel display and white frequency counter actually works for me. The frequency counter draws my eye to it, letting me know what frequency the radio is on without looking at the channel display and band selector. The radio itself isn't bad looking, personally I'd...

    A Quick Attaboy....

    I have a few forums I am on. Almost all of the forums I'm on are great, people doing their best to come together and fix a problem someone else is having. Or someone parts with something another member needs/ wants/ will use. Only one of my forums has an issue with the occasional argument, they...

    What would be the reaction if Hams used 11m legally using their calls.

    It depends. Are those hams going to be running type accepted cb radios on 11m? Or whatever ham rig they happen to have? If hams want to get on 11m with a type accepted radio that is clean not run big power, and trybto show others what can be done, awesome!! If they want to show up on 11m with a...

    PEOPLE SHOULD LEARN TO HAVE SOME COURTESY !!!

    There are days I just don't turn on the radio because of all the crap out there. Then there are days I turn it on and sit on 42. Just to listen to the guys chat about something or other.

    Any chance you can post pics of the leds? I think that's a cool mod.

    How Much Does It Take To Burn Out A Radio?

    I'd say you'll be fine. Pretty sure it takes more than a few minutes keyed up with no antenna to do any real damage. If I'm wrong, one of the more experienced guys here will set us straight.

    How about a "DX-DAY" for forum members

    Sounds like fun! I heard someone chatting with you a few days ago.

    SBE Console II necromancy

    Depending on the colors of the meter, and the colors of the led, it might wash out certain colors. It's a cool idea! Be really easy to tell what mode your in that way!! Depending on how you are switching the led, it might be possible to run 3 different leds that wouldn't interfere with the meter...

    Uniden Madison - channel selector noise

    I think most of the older Uniden/ Cobra cb radios will do that. @loosecannon or Xit13, plus a few others should be able to answer that for you. Loosecannon did a few mods on my Grant XL and removed that noise when I change channels. They should be along soon to answer your question for you.

    SBE Console II necromancy

    If it's is mold, spray white vinegar on it. That will kill the mold, bleach will not kill it, and it'll come back with a vengeance.

    Pride DX300. Works until the owner gets it home.

    Close enough for you to drive over and take a look at his place if it doesn't work again?? Wondering if transportation and whatnot might be bouncing things around...

    fan recommendation ???

    Turn the volume on your radio up so they can't whisper and be heard.

    Texas Star DX350 - SSB delay causing loss in power output

    I wasn't happy with losing the full transmit power when I kicked into ssb. I never bothered to run a switch for the full power delay. I figure that if I need lower transmit power I can always push a button and reduce power that way. I really just wanted to be able to run WFO with the ssb delay.
