Does anyone run legal power anymore? I can sit in my jeep and work the

my Yaesu FT840 for open TX when the 60 meter band became available to hams
and I can TX on the CB channels now. Even running 20 W AM no one seems to
hear me on any CB channel though I can tune up to 10 Meters and get a 59+20
signal report from Arizona an the same radio and antenna. I'm starting to
think that every CBer runs 600 Watts with a bad receiver. I used to have a
lot of fun with a little 4 watt CB when I was a kid and before I got my ham
ticket.

Yes... I run 100% legal.


You admitted just a few posts ago that you modified your two radios
with your hack-job of a processor: "I have two installed in both my
Cobra19 and Cobra25 using the stock mic on one... and the Astatic 636L
on the other. They both work like a million bucks." So either you are
lying about them being installed in your radios and working "like a
million bucks" or you are lying about being 100% legal. Or both.


I talk to people every day on the way to and
from work.


Considering you live and "work" in your parent's basement, you must be
sleeping with a walkie-talkie. That's perverted, Brian.
