Globe Star CB radio -- need manual, schematic, service info, etc
I picked up an old tube-type Globe Star CB radio at a
surplus electronics store this weekend. Looks like it's all there and nothing's fried. It came with the power input connector, but it's an empty connector. There is no Sams Photofacts book on this model. Do any of you fine folks have any documentation on this model? At the very least, I'd like to know how to wire the power connector for 115 VAC operation. Thanks and 73, Dean K5DH |

Is that a three channel, xtal controlled set...about a foot wide, but only a
few inches tall? If so, the schematic was in the first Sams CB book (soft-bound large format book style, not a folder) which they put out--CB-1, IIRC. It's been 40 years, but I had one 'back when' if it's the same one. jak "K5DH" wrote in message ... I picked up an old tube-type Globe Star CB radio at a surplus electronics store this weekend.

If I remember correctly..it was also called a Globe-100. I remember it like
the other person said, about 12-24 inches wide, dark blue and when you changed channels a lamp moved to indicate channel 1, 2 or 3...Eddie "jakdedert" wrote in message ...
