    My opinion the thing needs to be recapped it's a double-sided board a full recapping should fix that problem

      Yeah dsb radios are a joke. Not many techs will even look at one. I won't even work on one

      Only real techs who know what they're doing will work on them Mike's radio repair did my GE ssb slantface base which has a double solid board he did a great job and gave me the radio back in a week m​@@ericzerkle8486

      @@BOB12349307 ehhh not necessarily. I mean there's a difference in listing something as untested or not working and listing something as working when it doesn't.
      I sell lots of working stuff on there and new stuff. If I have something that needs repaired, that's how it's listed.
      I've also bought lots of good radio items there. Just have to read descriptions and check feedbacks.
      I know that's asking a lot from some people who won't even check their SWR 🤣.

      Um, ok. Then why do I get ok stuff? Used stuff, I don't expect much. I like a good project. 😅

      ​@Rooster_Radio Some CBers can't read let alone know how to test an SWR. One reason I went ham was to get away from the idiots on CB.😅
