    So, what is this all about?



    Is that thing really 15 KW?

    This kind of thing didn't exist when I was into CB in the early 70's It's got to be total homebrew. I get the impression that it's got to be dirty, but if these guys are in competition, wouldn't they want all their power in a tight frequency range?


    BTW, on a related subject. I was listening to 75M the other night, and some guys were talking about some ham they called "Jersey Joe" who got caught running 28 KW. Is that something that really happened, or is it just a tall tale that keeps getting bigger?

    Oh, and why is the older Chevy Suburban the rolling platform of choice for these guys? It seems like they all use them.

    Yes it should.

    Joe, you know it was posts like this that got you into hot water over yonder. C'mon.

    And did any of the Pack Rats get ahold of you, or did that fall by the wayside?

    Yup. Relocation complete.

    It's OK, no trouble to move it, and new members may not know all the forums like we curmudgeons do...
    QAnon / GOP Republicans mentally lack the necessary intelligence to even tell a decent lie (Ex: A cabal of Satanic, cannibalistic pedophiles run a global child sex trafficking ring and conspired against former President Dotard dRUMPf during his term in office... Jewish space lasers, etc.). What in the hell makes anyone believe these melon heads can actually govern?

    One parting comment to answer the question:

    So, what is this all about?
    Small penis compensation.

    You're welcome.
