What kinda CB's are you using and what antanna?

I have a Cobra 29ltd chrome, piked and tuned with a little wilson ant.



heres my 15 yr old cobra
piked and tuned and switch extenders

 

Cobra 25 with the K-40 super trucker.

 

i just upgraded from a modded cobra 25. it was right over 15yrs old and worked awesome!

 

I have a little cobra. I don't know the model, it's rubbed off from being in so many vehicles.
It's over 20 years old now.
On it's third magnetic mount antenna.

 

I used to have a Cobra something or other... I think I need to get a new one in this truck, I like the idea of the whole radio in the mic, then a box under the dash it connects to with the antenna and everything, I think its the Model 75 from Cobra... it just looks clean IMO. Then I always liked the Firestik with the Fender Mount.

 

Cobra 29 WX/NW/ST With 2 Firestik 48" antennas for summer and 2 Barjan Diesel 24" antennas for winter.

 

i have a Uniden 68 something... i'll have to get the exact model number..... peaked and tuned (38 watts) w/a connex board and talkback.... then it feeds a Galaxy 225 linear (sp) amp and the antenna i use is a home made one my local CB guy makes and sells across the US he calls it the GR-5000 but i think them big guys rename it when he sells it to them. i've talked to a friend for 15-20 miles before and he had a very similar setup to mine.

 

did your linear amp help out alot?

 

does a bull horn make someone loud and obnoxious?...

you have to get the CB tuned for running a linear or you'll burn it up.... i have a switch on mine that knocks it from 38 watts dead key to 4 watts. it makes the signal alot cleaner coming out of the amp as it's not trying to over modulate the signal..... now don't get me wrong it'll reach out and touch someone when it's on high and the amp is on high..... it'll accually over-ride fm radio's in cars beside me in front and behind.... i love keying it up and saying "hey" and then watching people look around wandering if it was God or something.....

 

send me the info, i want one.
