What is swing?

Here is an old thread from a forum I used to hang out on
We had some good times here in the early days,then it slowly went
the way this place is steadily heading . . . . .

any radio, take it to a GOOD CB shop get a Peak n' Tune, thats all you need, echo and talkback are nice but you dont need them.

If you dont need,dont buy

Cobra's talk great out of the box,good antenna(Wilson 2000 is a fan favorite) and a noise canceling mic like the RK56 and you'll do a good job
of/at talking 3-5 miles.

Purchasing from places like Sparky's who sell radio's "ready to rock"
are hard to beat,the rigs are peaked/tuned/converted/aligned etc
at no extra cost,most all shops do charge "for extra's"

 

I dont know what mine has for power But its just a Cobra 29LTD Classic, and I can hear in and get out quite far with stock Freightliner Antennas

I use an Astastic Mic



peak n tune only cost $30 at my shop anyway

Seen a lot of good radios ruined after a visit to a "GOOD" CB shop. Caution is advised as to who you let take the covers off your radio!!!! There are people who will swear by a CB shop who have let said shop run 12 volts to the finals, do the super wackpack peak and tune, make it modulate 1000%, and do an "expert" alignment....by ear!! None of which you want done to your radio.

 

the shop i take my radio to has been in biz since the 50's and is run by the origional owner and his son.....they KNOW what they are doing
