I am just getting in to messing with CB's,as I work on trucks and cars for 30 years,back cannot go any more,so I pick up this hobby,messing with these CB's. Been a ham operator since the early 90's,this is when I had to do ,10 words a minute in CW,I believe I did around 13 words a month nite,and of course,I forgot most of the letter beeps,it has been a while. I figured doing this radio,repairs and mods is a bit easier to hat breaking my back working on vehicles,and the wife won't let me work on any vehicles,even my Father's van and car.So,I started this when the Government grounded us last year,still learning these CB radio's,and lots of reading to do. Oh well,my back feels better working on these radios,lots to learn about the way they work,but I have the concept of repairing them,at least the Cobra brand radio. No I am looks Ng at a HR2510,that is a interesting setup,but I believe I can handle this one,first sideband I gave ever worked on.Wish me luck,LOL.
