admittedly i have only had the old realistic am set back in the car for a week but the only noise is static there is half a dozen web sites with cb clubs , but...
I think 27 mHZ is generally quiet but more active on SSB. Most people have moved to UHF and most of the traffic is not social but from people working etc. I...

can anyone assist i have a super cheatah that transmits fine on side band but just drops a carrier on am no modulation at all any information will be greatly...
... The modulation path on AM and SSB is often quite separate, so the fault lies there. I suspect something in the audio switching for AM. Without a...
Thanks all for that everyone. I do reckon that a big part of keeping 27 MHz alive anywhere is being able to get the equipment. I am glad I talked to you lot...
G'day all, I just thought it would be interesting to look at how CB has developed in other countries. Get a load at the poor UK lot. They now get pmrs...
... This is a common problem with that radio. The modulator transistor (a PNP darlington, usually a green 2SA1012 transistor in a TO-220 case) goes short,...
Thanx I will give it a try p.s would this be the same as the cub am set, i have had a dead one in the shed for years with a similar problem ... This is a...

He all, I just picked up a Phillips FM320...one of the OLD ones, Pre repeaters. Is there any way to add repeater access? I also seem to remberfrom way back...
I'm pretty sure FM320s had "duplex" similar to the FM620. The lever you use to turn the radio on should have something like off/on/dup (dup being duplex). If...

Hi Glen, No, the first of the 320's didnt have duplex. There used to be a pcb available or you could make to give them duplex capability. Cheers....Matt. ... ...
the modulator transistor is green 2sa1012 in the super tomcat and it has the tan front. finals seem phisicaly smaller and the board is more compact ... Is that...
