sad but true

I think about this sometimes I go into the petro awhile back the one in Knoxville off watt rd. so the young guy trucker obviously asks the cb tech lol how much for a peak and tune and to put in a talkback. tech says $35 the young man says ok and gives the tech the radio. I'm pretty sure it was a cobra 29 new. the kid says I'll be back in 20mins or so. tech lol says no problem. watched the tech open the unit quick snip and clip. probably spread the coils at least that's what I hear most do to those radios and most likely worked his magic using the pa to do the talk back. took him a whole 10 mins to do this. the kid comes back all happy he's getting his radio fixed. tech says your radio is done. kid says that was fast. tech says that'll be $35. tech should have said that'll be $35 and thank you for letting me jack up and whack out your radio 4/u

 

oh yeah both the radio man and antenna man are both nice guys.but are only out there to take drivers $$$$$ neither has any real skill. the radio man actually does a tune up or tweakeeeeee peekeeeee off of a you tube video... the antenna man faaa get about it. total idiot and basically is stealing drivers $$$$$ people go to jail for stealing that's exactly what he's doing.the so called radio man loves to sell the general hp/40 has no idea how to set it up... my buddy bought one from him dumb ### he is and if he talks on it 20minutes it'll overheat literally burn your hand if you go anywhere near the amp on the bottom of the unit that's pathetic...............

 

oh after the hp/40 he talks on for the 20mins. when it overheats it will not transmit at all..... whole #### units to hott do to that...

 

the dead key is jacked up on that radio. I don't deal with the two idiots we are talking about here.

 

ok Craig here is the deal you've got going your definitely getting a false reading off your equipment aka your mfj the 955 Stryker you have will shut itself off by itself if two things ever happen one if the swrs get too high and number two if the unit overheats it will shut itself off. I know this. get the grounding done we have talked about. and rabbi might not like this but take the stud mark sold you and throw it in a dumpster. buy a predator stud. problem solved case closed. I know what I'm talking about I've been there done that. we all live and learn. hopefully --------- at least I do

 

ok here is the real deal on the idiots in Carlisle radio man sells radio's to drivers that are jacked up .might be a brand new radio yours you buy or a new one he sells you. he jacks it up for you and I'm using nice wording.here. then the so called antenna man wants to or gets driver's to buy two Browning knock off predators. they have plenty of them. he sets both antennas yeah right and we all know two antennas unless a real antenna man or tech sets them have very high swrs. so your getting a jacked up radio from radio man. and two antennas giving a 1:7 or 1:8 swr reading that shows that on a mfj or any other Swr meter you use.... such nice guys they are. and here the driver thinks he has it going on .
