Hi all,
I've had to replace these before, but it's been a couple of years now, and apparently they are not available right now.
So i found these JW miller chokes and am hoping to use them as alternates...
I figured this was useful enough to share in hopes that it helps save the faceplate of at least one classic radio out there.
As im sure many of you have experienced, removing the knobs from an old radio can really test one's finger strength, and patience.
how many of us have reached for a...
Hi all,
i was hoping to get some advice on how to use the keypad on my new 2995DX radio.
The labels on the buttons don't seem to match those in the manual.
Here is an excerpt from the Factory Service Manual:
If anyone has a way to translate these labels id be much obliged!

Hi all,
I am on the hunt for what seems to be a rare item.
The chrome bezel for an S9 radio. the one with the large round meter.
I believe that the S6 bezel would work as well.
if anyone has one, or knows who might, please let me know.
Also please message me with your price if you don't...
Hi all,
Im not well versed on all the latest offerings in the CB market as i tend to enjoy/work on older equipment for the most part.
however, the factory stereo in my van is starting to act flaky and im in the process of replacing it.
This particular vehicle has a double DIN opening, so i...
The only thing i can find on this transistor is a chinese fake on ebay.
the part number is: 4104P1 and i think it might be a motorola transistor?
it's a "pill" style transistor with a stud on the bottom.
I got two of these, never installed, in a box of CB junk a friend gave me.
this was...
found this ad on ebay and to me it doesn't look "factory".
so, was there ever really a "president" D104 or is this a black and chrome that someone modified...
This question came up during a local CB group chat and i had to admit that i hadn't ever really given it much thought, and always just used a deadkey.
Then someone brought up "what about SSB" and i feel like they may have a point. or do they?
So i figured i'd bring up the question to this...

the guy says it seems stock but i don't think so.
no clock?
stars on the lights below the channel display?
looks a bit custom to me.

I found these on amazon and to me it looks a little dinky:
the magnets themselves are 3.5 inches a piece and the footprint is about a 9 inch triangle.
I feel like i would worry about using a 102' whip on something like this but IDK maybe they work just fine.
so does anyone have any...
Hey all,
i have a particular need for a triple magnet mount and am hoping to find one that someone doesn't need anymore but is still in decent shape.
(particularly the pads on the bottom).
you can let me know the price here or in a private conversation.
thanks!

Hi all,
I will be doing an install on a van in the coming months, and of course, it has one of those protruding ribs right in the center of the roof that runs the length of the vehicle.
the plan is to put the antenna toward the rear of the roof but im going to have to get creative in order to...
Hi all,
I am planning on heading up to the mountains in the next week or two for a day of DXing, and was wondering if anyone could help me predict what days might be the better DX days.
I have never been very adept at interpreting sunspots and the like, so i would really appreciate some advice...
hi all.
looking at getting one of those cheap baofeng handhelds that you can get on ebay for around 40 bucks.
Just wanted to know if i should be looking at something just a bit more expensive for whatever reason, and would also like to know what these things can and can't do.
thanks in...
seems like the 2SK192A is getting expensive, or maybe im not looking in the right place?
i figure there's got to be a more economic alternative somewhere out there.
