Is there anyone in the Hot Springs Arkansa area that works on cb radios?

Dan the fox tango group has all the info you could ever need about these radios.
I encourage you to go download the manuals and read them.
The service manuals are there as well.
They are a good radio that work well on AM if tuned up correctly as well as a good performer on SSB.
If you run AM get the filter and do the mods on the AMfone net site if you have the ability.

If you remember I did ask you if you had that switch on? Good that is that it was.

This is the kind of stuff that happens when you have too many radios...having to re-learn how to operate them
