Does anybody know who is at Prescott, AR on I-30, AND, the 126 on I-40 in TN??????? I have a radio from a co-worker and that is the two shops he has had work on his radio. I'm fixing to find out what kind of "tune" they did and how good their work is. (I think I already know about Prescott...)

I'll never go back to the Prescott shop, I thought he was a crook.
I switched trucks and had feedback on the am/fm speakers. Had them double check the SWR's and they bench tested my Connex,
He told me my radio was shot, something about his watt guage being maxed out when he keyed up my radio. He wanted to sell me a new radio bad.
That was a year and a half ago and my radio is still working good. -
In general, are the CB shops found on the national truck stops (PFJ, TA, etc.) any good?

Before you spend valueable $$$ on gettin the radio more power...Google the peak n tune myth...Then make a decision...
I was at a shop late last week in bay town tx,dont wanna say their name but they use the same 4 letters for their name..
There was a tall slim fella in their that was stuck on the idea of peak n tune and super mod....
I went in with a new 29chrome fresh out of the box a cpl days before and wanted a cpl small things done..Well i got my echo,blue lights changed to red..They couldnt align nore did they clean up my astatic mic....I got a few lil scratches on my front bezel and i pointed it out..The tec mumbled something as he walked away...Most tecs will use the delta tune knob for the echo but he used squelch..Another tec askedhim how come but i didnt hear the reply..I end up askin anyways..I asked for a 90 deg end put on my mic and got it but it was done so that it wouldnt fit correctly cause volume was in the way..Went back and an owner type looked at another cobra for orientation and flipped 180 deg in the opposite way...Not the way i wanted but no biggie..I fixed it myself....
Back to the peak n tune bit...I told the tec i might be putting it with a linier and he popped out and again said it will "HAVE TO BE " peaked n tuned and super modded....
Shop itself seemed deciently stocked but stuffy and dusty as aw hell..Another tec had a bit of a ####y attitude but not rude,a hird tec seemed like work interferred with life itself..
These are my personal impressions of this shop and i had never been there and dont know anyone but they seemed to be known and also been around a long time..
Ill not go back but a few that were there along with me seemed to like them..
Exit 789 @ valero parkin lot in baytown tx..
