Default How to tell if Yaesu 101EE is modified for CB?

Heh, without the obvious, that is plugging it in, and seeing if it
will receive that band.

Yes, I am a newb, without the antenna or knowledge to see if it will
receive CB.

Can I tell by looking inside? If so, what would I be looking for?

Thanks,

Erick


Can you tell by simply looking inside? I highly doubt it. I suppose that
a radio-stud type person could manage (if so, can you mentor me?!!!), but
if you had that ability, you wouldn't be a newbie. My humble suggestion:
put a cb antenna on it and see if it receives the 11M band. I looked at a
picture of that radio. If one was modded, I doubt there would be any way
to directly indicate whether it was on CB or not.

Alan's standard disclamer in the event that the original poster gives a
damn: If you're the legal-beagle type, note that using that radio on CB
ain't allowed here in the US. Moving on...

Incidentally, that's a pretty old rig for a newbie. Legal issues on CB
notwithstanding, do you really want to use that thing?

Keep checking back. Somebody around here might know an easier way to
help. I know I'm curious.
