Aden.....not to sound silly....but ummm
why not just get a radio that is designed for the channels...you can get used ones pretty darn cheap...and wont have to worry about the hassle of realignment and all that stuff.
Like T said..it can be done.....but for a cost
T-how long did it take you to get is close to right?
just to know?

what I figured....
aden...you're off to a helluva start....
just get the right equip instead of just trying to do a lot of things your equip isnt designed for...I think a lot will agree

I had a radio that was done properly. I wasn't talking about it not working well (and yeah, you gotta get it done right). My feelings are based on the fact that you need a conversion chart or external frequency counter to see what frequency you're on. I just don't like having to go..."hmm...channel 6 with switch flipped up is what...oh yeah...27.475". There are a few CBs that have frequency counters that will function with a conversion....and that's fine. Also, if you've opened up the clarifier so you can hit the 0 frequencies, it's a royal pain to find it without a frequency counter. It's just the hassle factor that I don't like.

Well, I had channels added to a Grant XL. Nothing but problems. Do the easy thing. Buy a radio with factory channels like stated above. <img src=http://www.wwdx.org/smilies/posticon25.gif ALT=":25">

How much would it cost to add channels? For the people that have had channels added how much did it cost you. And who would you recomend?

Well i called the guy today and he said he could do it for me. Might be a couple of weeks till i get the radio to him but i can wait. He said he could get the maximum performace out of that chip for a Great price. And he told me that their wont be to many switches! But i have to tip my hat to Flatland Radio for all the help he has given me and he is a great guy. CDX197 <img src=http://www.wwdx.org/smilies/posticon27.gif ALT=":27"> at ya! Thanks a lot man!
