@241flatside Hello Dave, yes my friend TRW, 142 in central Maine got in contact with me on your message. Been busy and miss our Sunday morning QSO's on 26.915 & 27.285 MHz. Sorry to hear about your situation. Keep up the faith man! Hope to catch you on the air soon. God bless & take care, Bulldog 777.

how do u like all done up does it work well

[BLUZUMR]

@slimjim119 The radio has had one year of use. Many DX contacts through the seasons. The power mod has held up during the extreme cold and heat. It takes a little common sense. Use the radio during normal temperature levels. Electronics need to be respected and you will have a radio that will last a very long time. Take care, Bulldog 777.

i got the money out to get a 959....but i need to know the best antenna i can get for around $60 or $70....i know bout the fancy antennas you sell, but is it the best for my money?

[BLUZUMR]

@LongTalkerCbRadios The only antenna I sell is the Predator Freedom DX-K mobile antenna. For the mobile the Predator 10-K, using high power 10-K or 30-K, you can run a 9' antenna the Freedom DX-K, a base antenna IMAX-2000 very easy to install and priced just right.
