    IMG_20170208_161134003.jpg I IMG_20170208_182619013.jpg IMG_20170218_160854333.jpg hadn't posted in a while. Thought I'd show off my chicken bander radio project I picked up cheap in a thrift store. I added the chrome cases. I also changed out the chrome mic cover on the Telex Turner RK56. Now I just need to find a chrome mic wire.

    I have a few other ideas for mods brewing in my head. Should be fun.

    You could sell that on and make some profit , and buy yourself a SSB radio

    You're right. I only paid a tenth of the street value for this radio. I could definitely make a profit off of it as it sits. And I may do that someday, but for now I figure I'll keep it and use it as a test mule for mods.
