C.B. radios.....

Hey wiz, I still have, but haven't used it in a while, the big brother to that 2950. One of the original Galaxy Saturn Turbo's. A National NCL-2000 desktop amp, a maco V-58 ground plane, and a silver eagle.

Also have a few tube radio's I've been thinking of sending, but can't quite let go of them. These things grow on you I guess. A Johnson Viking Valiant, National NC300, National NC303, along with some test equipment are about whats left.

Used to have a TMC GPT-750, aka 'the Iron Curtain', letting go of that was a mistake. Also had the GPR-90 reciever to go along with it. Built a 3CX3000F7 amp, that got parted out over the years. Only have a couple of those tubes left along with an old RF deck.

Working on these old tube rigs used to be my preferred form of relaxation.

The last time I cracked open the box of my little emergency CB radio, all that I could hear was a bunch of teen age kids trying to talk with a southern accent and act cool.

Talking C.B. radios.....

Even with the internet I still talk to my friends on the Base mostly every night. For a base station I have a Uniden Washington and a Ranger 2995DX...For mobiles I have a Ranger 2950DX in the Pickup, a HR2510 in the Diesel Car, Magnum Delta Force in the commute car and a Titan road pro in the Better halfs truck For antennas I run wilson 1k's and wilson 5K's ...My Base antennas are the I10K, The Imax2K and I have a Skyking Tops 2 element quad Beam....for them long distant QSO's I have been talking on the radio since about 1975...My first Base satation was a RCA Cb Co-Pilot with a turner +2 mic and a starduster antenna... I could go on but then everyone would call me a bucket mouth

Lightbulb C.B. radios.....

I think I'm gonna get this one:

The Galaxy DX48T is Galaxy's newest addition to their export radio line up. This is Galaxy's first radio to feature built in linear amplifier. The radio will dead key 50 watts and produce over 150 watts PEP in stock form. With dual echo controls, AM/FM, variable talkback, built in cooling fan and much more this radio was built for professional drivers that work in areas with a lot of operators. This unit has the power you need to communicate even when conditions are at their worst. Don't forget this radio, like the others comes with Galaxy's TWO YEAR Limited Parts and Labor Warranty.

Only $379.95

http://www.premiere-electronics.net/galaxy10.htm

No need for an outside linear, its built in, no sideband but I hardly ever talk on sideband anymore.
