I'm not a CB'er, but I have an older model base station that was given
to me recently. It is a President "Dwight D." Hooked it up and tested
it. The pots are a little dirty and noisy, but otherwise all works well
except for the mechanical digital clock. Although old, it seems like a
quality unit.

Google search doesn't turn up much of anything on this radio. Anyone
have any idea what kind of quality this radio is, and if it has any
maket value (perhaps on e-bay)?

Thanks. HH

I HATE IKE !

I paid 26bucks two months ago for one on ebay, sold with echo mic (cheap
one) for 75 after I tuned it and put extra channels in it. It dead keyed 4
watts and swang 18 after a 1969 final swap. 10 kc switch also installed with
talkback, and it had no speaker, so I put a high quaility one in under the
grid in the center rear..lights and clock were restored. It wasnt bad at all
after the mods. I probaly could have gotten more if I held on to it for the
right "person". I was not departing with the D104 I had on it ...it was
probaly a 8 out of 10 cosmeticly, a 9 on audio output..10 on recieve...

It did NOT "Swang" 18 watts. That is on a SSB or PEAK meter. What did it
"swing" on a Bird ? 1 or 2 watts? I thought so.
