At the time I was thinking of the phrase 'my radio is out of whack' or 'this radio is whacked', but you never know.
This is a question which can only be answered on the bench as too many possible variables exist. If you had owned it longer and chain smoke I...
One would think the common English definition of the word 'whack' would be sufficient reason to not spend money having it done to a radio.
This is what I said. There is a difference between merely operating one and knowing nothing about the electronics involved, and repairing many of...
Then I would not worry about it. Xforce is poorly designed and assembled. If it works be happy. Just adjust your flasher until it does not annoy...
Keep in mind when you do run it the radio will be looking at yet again a new impedance upon key up as it will now be looking at the input...
I see no mention of which model but in any case first be positive SWR is good. Odds are the reactance loading the radio in the input of the...
Actually the Imax 2000 is a .64 wave antenna. Which is why it out talks the Antron 99 in the ground wave area around you. Small consolation for...
The Whack Pack is so bad I for one vote to give the FCC all power needed to go after any involved in it's creation. This is one area where I think...
I thought 'cruel and unusual punishment' was against forum rules?
Actually I was since in talking authoritatively he is purporting himself to be a technician. How could a mere layperson make such a matter of fact...
As long as we are nit picking what about an array? Could you then say "SWR-z", since after all each antenna 'sees' a radio down a single coax? In...
The reason they move the antenna out is to avoid the trouble you are having.
Grabbing the antenna and lowering SWR is meaningless to the issue as all they are doing is using their body to adsorb radiation. Radiation...
One antenna does not work better than two. This is one of those shade tree CB shop myths lacking in credible evidence gained by proper research....
Why have the guy buy a new coax and do an install. I hear this often, usually because people do not want to go to the added trouble to get an...
I am not confusing anything. I talked to the Mfg people. I have known Mr Ping for decades. Knew him in his staying in H.K. days as the feds were...
Exactly what happened. The original faceplate had the long cross from end to end. Then smaller, then a tiny one. I tried getting replacement new...
$5 repair at a decent CB shop. $10 if plug needed also, $5 to simply rewire. If they quote over that go somewhere else.
You have dead shorted your antenna to ground from looking at the pic. Go buy a Wilson little Wil magnet mount and put it up there after first...
