    It's common knowledge he subtracts 75% of the radios value before he sent it to you. If you want to believe he increased the value of the radio go right ahead but anybody who understands how to read an oscilloscope knows otherwise. Personally I wouldn't give you $20 for that radio because the repairs would exceed the value of the radio.
    As long as you're happy with it that's all that matters.

    You got to read the story about this guy who thought lemon juice made himself invisible. He actually thought he had scientific evidence to back it up.

    It reminded me of the sobering realization that I had when I realized that even though the guy from Bells CB shop and I went to the same school and study the same subject matter and worked on the same equipment
    ( although I'm sure he did it 20 years after I did )
    I have the integrity and self-awareness to realize that this type of equipment with such garbage it was beyond my engineering skills and it would be blatantly dishonest of me if I opened up a business and tried to take your money by working on this type of equipment and making improvements to it. The ability to recognize my own limitations is an amazing thing and unfortunately some people don't have that ability. The more I learn, the less I realize I know..
    For some people the less they know the more they think they know.

    That's dunning-kruger in a nutshell and it happens to everyone

    Another word for it is Anosognosia.
    Anosognosia is a deficit of self-awareness, a condition in which a person with a disabilityseems unaware of its existence

    Insisting on that which can’t be proven is where this stuff gets ridiculous.

    - won’t prove it across this forum.

    - won’t prove it in person.

    Show us details of an antenna install and analyzer readings. That’s about it.
     
    shogun and JesusFreak316 Thank this.

    Again the 99v2 I got from Bell's rocks and receives nothing but compliments even at 2,400 miles away barefoot, I have now personally listened to it on a mobile radio and it's absolutely crystal clear, not over driven or over modulated and I couldn't be happier.....just my .02
     
    Slowmover1 and rabbiporkchop Thank this.
