@ Adrianmouse666

I have done that with most mono audio devices. Do you mean put the plug a little bit into the jack? I did that and it played out the speaker. A side effect of a mono headphone jack.

[TronixGuy93]

Why?

[coondogtheman1234]

@TronixGuy93 I didnt have an antenna and CB is basically useless now that ppl have cellphones and FRS radios and I also felt like modding something and making a video.

[kc7fys]

Funny!

[K9Handler521]

Um...why?

[coondogtheman1234]

@K9Handler521

I like hacking things up. I have no antenna and this thing is pretty much useless nowadays. and I liked thaqt this thing had a strong amp on it.

[8592291613]

the mouse uses 27mhz that is why

[coondogtheman1234]

@8592291613

but it only does that when its right near the mouse. it doesnt make that sound when its farther away from the mouse. but the mouse has a short range anyway maybe 6 feet I dunno.

[FreezEntertainment]

if u connect the jack to the mic in on the circuit board u could broadcast ur own radio

[coondogtheman1234]

@FreezEntertainment

True, I could easily do that but I wanted to use the audio amp in this rig b/c I dont have an antenna and only one of these things works the other one buzzes very loudly regardless of the volume position and I dunno why.

[91cannibal]

@FreezEntertainment hey i have that same cd radio. how exactly do i do that so i can broadcast my own radio? msg me! thanks!!

[FreezEntertainment]

replace the mic with a 1/8" mini jack and wire the ptt switch closed. then connect a mixer or computer or something to mix music off of

[91cannibal]

sweet thanks!!! and will everyone be able to hear me? or just myslef?

[monkeywithawrench27]

i absolutely hate that commercial!

[coondogtheman1234]

what commercial? time mark it for me.

[monkeywithawrench27]

the commercial from 0:32 until 0:42.

wireless things produce a little interference on amplifiers, which is then amplified of course. just like mobile phones interfere with amplified speakers.

made me laugh when i saw what page was freezing up your computer, the youtube comments page! it always freezes, takes ages to scroll because they insist on using flash to access the database and sort it locally on your computer i suppose, and flash doesn't like moving round the screen.

thanks for passing on the volume hack.

[coondogtheman1234]

yeah im sure the wires and things ive added to this thing made it into the amp and got amplified, but a wireless mouse's transmitter isnt that strong, the range of it is maybe maximum of 10 feet. and YT has screwed up in a lot of places I remember when the only things on the site that were flash was the video players now everything is in flash WTF YT? my pc isnt state of the are yanno.

[coondogtheman1234]

I hate when youtube uses flash for everything its so annoying and chews up resources, my PSPn cant upload videos from it to youtube b/c YT decided it wanted flash as the uploader and it wont work on the PSP. and the reason my computer was laggin is b/c of my mcafee security center which right now its updating but its taking a hella long time, ive been looking at that stupid spinning arrow icon on my taskbar for ages wtf. and about a month ago they decided to shut me off but i get it thru aol

[coondogtheman1234]

actually I think that was a search page b/c theres pics of toilet videos on it. and the search thing doesnt work on my PSP.

[Kyle2303]

your local oscillator might no longer be gang tuned with your rf amp

[coondogtheman1234]

so, lol all i did weas tap the amp on this puppy i didnt mess with the RF circuits, and it still works as a CB radio and you could probably even hook this to your stereo the line in even.

[Kyle2303]

i was referring to the one that might be giving you only static

[coondogtheman1234]

well on that one when you turn it on it just gives a loud buzz and the volume control doesnt change it any ideas why its doing that?

[Cheesaholic]

i've just tried to import it again so i can copy and paste exactly what it says right, but it imported now? but when i tried tot drag it to the video area it wouldnt let it, it only let it go to the audio area, so i played it to see if it had the sound, at nothing. just silence..

[coondogtheman1234]

try copying the video off the memory card to your desktop and then try it again, i had a similar problem where if i tried adding it right from the card all id see is red X's and it wouldnt work but if i copied the files to my PC it would work, i dunno why WMM wont import an AVI file it works on mine and i got the same camera and everything, maybe theres something wrong with ur pc, but im just saying, i really dunno why it wont import the files but try the above mentioned trick

[billsnitzer]

haha. nice singing.

[coondogtheman1234]

lmao thanks, im not that good really but i love singing to my fav tunes lol you got me hehe

[191191119]

what kind of cam do you use?

[coondogtheman1234]

I use the Canon PowerShot A560 digital camera to shoot videos, Nice camera Highly Recommended, shoots awesome videos but they take up lots of space so i recommend the use of a large SD card like an 8 gig that will give you 3 hours of video recording at the 320x240 30FPS setting that I use. still pics at night arnt that great the shutter is slow at night unless theres some setting i didnt hit i dunno but use the video mode and extract the pix u want in windows movie maker thats what i do

[Cheesaholic]

i have the Canon PowerShot A560 and i cant get my videos onto windows movie maker?

how do you get them on?

[coondogtheman1234]

thats stupid, they are .AVI files they should go right in did you try importing them? also I use the 320x240, 30fps mode and it allways works for me, what exactly is it saying

[psyfertech]

pretty nice man

i used to mess around with cb's and my first was a handheld but i went for a mobile one for the car for the better range but yeah thats crazy how the mouse does that

[coondogtheman1234]

yeah i figured that while transferring the videos to my computer i had the CB turned on and it was near my wireless mouse and i moved it by mistake and it made noises on my CB i was like wth? that works best on CB channel 7, i got another one of these units but it makes a loud buzzing sound when you turn it on and i dunno why

[psyfertech]

oh haha, yeah usually the most bizzar things are discovered on accident but yeah thats wierd that it makes that buzzing noise, im sure you will figure it out

[coondogtheman1234]

actually i know why it does that, the CB is picking up the wireless signal coming from the wireless mouse the mouse and receiver are talking to each other

[AllAmericanFiveRadio]

The audio sound good. Like the mouse sounds too.

[coondogtheman1234]

yeah they r cool sounds, kinda like the sounds from that remote sensor rig you made that played the sounds from tv remotes
