Ah man!!

i loved side band...sighs..

Yes Side Band is awesome

When I first keyed up from my truck it was with a $20.00 garage sale radio and a steel whip as "CB Wannabee". A few months later my 400 watt linear and well tuned radio got the Wannabee part of my handle dropped.
Another few months later I was pushing a thousand watts and kept up a conversation with a buddy as he drove to work in Louisiana. That rig earned me the handle Mr. CB.
I ran my last rig for a while. It pushes considerably more wattage, and from the Texas City Dike I regularly talked to base stations in Lafayette, Louisiana and Corpus Christi, Texas at the same time. That was quite a rig. I could key up driving down the highway here in Galveston County and talk to "Hot Rod" on his Base in Jasper, Texas most anytime, unless the skip was rolling.

I started running CB in 1974 with the handle Tank. My FCC ID was KXJ5129. I started out with a Cobra Cam 89. I have no idea what the CAM meant. I used am AstroPlane ground plane the 1st couple years then got a great deal on a Moonraker 4. By 1976 I had a Cobra 29 mobile for the truck running co-phased antennas. The radio had the funny channels added and a slider. It cranked out about 10 watts. That drove a 350 watt Palomar.

By 1978 I was running a Cobra 128 SSB rig in both the house and the truck, again tricked out for the "other" channels. The house was putting out 1kw thru the Moonraker4. I talked all over the world with that setup.

Now I run an RCI 2950 as a base and a mobile. I use a 5/8 wave ground plane at home and a 4' Firestick II on the truck. Won't be mentioning wattage or channels at this time. Although since I live about 100 yards from the Interstate I have to wait until late night to talk to other then truckers most of the time.

The RCI 2950s rock! I've owned a number of them and my tech man was a wizard at tweaking the model. They are a fantastic radio, and most of my radio experience has been with them.

I bought mine back in '92 after Dad passed and left me some money. It wasn't a cheap radio. But it is still going strong 15 years later. Good God! It's been 15 years already??? I had it retuned and peaked about 2 years ago. I have no problems getting out on that rig.

Glad to hear that you like it.

I have owned and operated most of the different radios popular up to six or seven years ago when I quit being active in them. If there's a better radio it is news to me, Cuz.

Catch me on 145.09 or 52.525..
11 meter days are long gone, unless I slide off 10 meters and raise a little ruckus...

Ah 52.525 the call freq on 6!

You dont do any 11 or 10 meter work anymore?? (I dont blame ya,both have been dead lately (Next to much DX))
