Thank you!!!! Wayne "Frank Gilliland" wrote in message ...

I don't have a clue as to what they are except they are supposed to boost power and range? Amplifiers for CB radio are illegal. It's not likely you will ever get caught but if you do the fine is typically several -thousand- dollars. If that doesn't bother you, fine. Also be aware that most CB amps (including the Palomar amps listed above) usually cause interference with nearby television receivers (your voice will be heard and the picture will be screwed up). They also splatter onto other channels on the Citizen's Band (if you listen to others on the CB for a few hours you will hear what I mean). A device called a "low-pass filter" can reduce the noise through the television but does nothing to prevent splatter. Another thing to know is that an amp increases -only- your transmit range, and not by much -- they don't improve your receive at all. The only thing that will improve both transmit -and- receive is a better antenna. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |
