Thanks Tallman

I just can't resist modifying things. Don't know why, just the way I am I guess. Of course I also like learning new things.

This 29 works pretty well for a dead stock radio. Was talking to my neighbor 2 miles away he said I was putting 7-8 on the scale. Now that's in VA timberland and the foothills. About 60 ft down the back side of the hills from him. Mobile to mobile, he has a galaxy 55. He's not a CB regular he mainly uses it during hunting season. Doesn't seem to be many people around here on the radio. So I need to get up and strong to get out and talk.

Now I need to find a good base antenna. I need a vertical since it going way up and I can't build a tower right now. Looking at one of these http://www.hyelectronics.com/new-bas...fo/GAINMASTER/ Kinda pricey. It's between that and a Imax 2000 unless I find something that looks better. But as I need a minimum of 60' of guyed mast pole to get through the trees. I've got a 11'x14'TV and cell ant. both on guyed masts both over 40 ft up. The tv is 20 ft over my roof though the cell is a true 40' pole.

Thanks
