Hi, I am leaving for Florida Saturday afternoon, I will be setting up a permanent base station for my inlaws on Sunday or Monday and I will be there until Thursday. If anyone wants to talk I will be monitoring Ch. 13 AM. I am hoping DX will be running so I can talk back to some of the...

The variable power will only effect the AM mode dead-key and the radio will always swing to whatever the radio was tuned for no matter where the variable control is set. SSB power will not be affected by the variable power control due to sideband having a modulated carrier. What you are...

I am just wondering by chance if it was bestresaleforyou that sold you that radio. I got burned on a SuperStar 360 FM/AM/USB/LSB/CW CB Radio that was a complete piece of $h1t. It is at Doc's right now being unbutchered. bestresaleforyou talks an excellent game in his descriptions, But the way he...

I am really tired of people coming on here after getting banned and posting that gay porn garbage and poking and prodding other forum members. I am not to happy that my 5 year old daughter saw those gay porn pictures when I clicked to read a forum thread. I think it would be a real good idea if...

If I saw that page I would have copied it pasted it too, I am sure he did not mean to look like MR. Smartie Pants. It looks like to me he was trying to help out a fellow forum member. I would suggest that if something such as plagiarism bothers you that you give him constructive criticism on how...

Hi, I just got a Heathkit CB-1 CB that looks just like an old tin lunchbox. It does transmit but I do think it may need some receive help. I still need to check the tubes to be sure that they are all ok. It also does have 1 single crystal , But it has a tune knob for 23 channels. I do not...

Sounds good, Any information would be great! Thanks for the info so far.

Does anyone have any information on this radio? What chassis is it built on? History? I picked one up and I cannot find much information about it. Does anyone have one? Do you like it? Please let me know. Thanks,

I have a Kris Power Pump linear with a 6KV6A driving two 6MJ6 tubes that are all brand new. My Cobra 2000GTL deadkeys 1-1.5 watts and swings to 17 watts on AM and 22 on SSB. What is the maximum dead key and drive wattage that I can safely put into the 6KV6A tube without causing damage to the...

Hi, I just replaced the tubes that were no good in my Kris Power Pump linear with a 6KV6A driver tube and (2) 6mj6 final tubes. The amp works awesome with 230 peak on AM and 280 peak on SSB. AM mode works flawlessly, But I have a small problem on SSB. When I initially key up on SSB it works...

Hi, I have a hobby of slot car racing which requires me to have a high amperage variable power supply, It needs to be able to variate from 0-13.8 volts DC. Is there any way that I can make an adapter that attaches to the output terminals on my power supply to variate the voltage? I have two...

I agree with Sonwatcher, I think CB is getting very popular again. I don't think CB it will ever hit the popularity it had in the 70's, But the demand for radios is climbing. If you look at ebaY and try to bid on any type of radio, Chances are you will be out bid. Radios on ebaY are also...

Hi, Does anyone know the wiring diagram for the 11 pin AC power cord for a Realistic Americana 23-Plus tube type radio? I am also looking for the power cord that will fit this radio as I did not get one with the radio. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks,

Lol, Now I feel like an idiot! I didn't even look at the sticker, I am so used to the SO-239's being marked with a sticker above or below them. :roll: 70 or 90 watts, Is this deadkey or max with swing on AM or SSB? This amp has 2 6JU6 tubes in it, The same two tubes as my friend has in...

I just recently got a Hy-Gain Model 482 Afterburner Plus Linear Amplifier and it does not have the markings for which SO-239 you hook up the antenna too and which SO-239 to hook the radio too. Could someone please help me? Here is the directions and schematics...

Astatic DN-HZ or an Astatic T-3. Not only are these microphones beautiful to look at, But they also sound amazing on the air.

*Shakes Head* I keep having to put the limiters back in after people *Clip* them out because they sound like hell and there is no comparison between a clipped radio and one that has been tuned the right way. I guarantee a well tuned radio will walk all over one with a clipped modulation...

.........JUNK! . . . . . . . . . . Just kidding, Actually those are nice radios. You got it for a good price and 30 watts PEP is good also unless you change some of the internals(I would leave it alone). If they are set up right they have nice clean, Loud modulation. I was very...

I would figure it would dance all over when It modulates, But will it stay still and show the receive frequency when unkeyed on SSB or will it 000000mHz? Please let me know. Thanks,

When I became a Technician Class Amatuer I was very open about my Citizen Band backround and I even talked about how I still enjoy talking on the "Chicken Band". Most people who are Amatuers started on CB and are afraid to admit it. Most people I have talked with in my area don't mind that I am...
