On the older Cascadias that we had I used to store my wallet in that cubby when I was driving. It always came out quite warm when I would take my wallet back out!

Keep in mind that no matter where you mount it,if it gets hot enough and no air flow,solder becomes some what liquified...
Then you might have that smokeing hot radio you always wanted.. -
Just to explain something to you guys, solder melts at 190°F and the way they are assembled, after initial assembly they are put on a belt which goes through an oven for a reflow. The temps sometimes hit temps of 300°.

That's a great question. I've touched on that subject before on a different thread. You would buy the radio, install it, and just enjoyed using it. No need to spend extra $$$'s on a tech. Back in the day, most of the cb radios were made in the Philippines or Japan where they used quality parts. Yes the radios were expensive, but you get what you pay for. 40 years later, I've still used my EF Johnson 123A in the old Pete for awhile. Still a good sounding radio even though the capacitors should be replaced. Bling not included or needed with this radio.handlebar, shooter19802003, rabbiporkchop and 4 others Thank this. -
