Dude your wasting time on doing that go buy a rci galaxy or a Stryker radio that the channels that have already been modified I know what I'm talking about I have been in the radio hobby for many many many years what your trying to do is poppycock 73s
@@mattpace5982 those radios cannot do the NZ channels… at least not with correct channel alignment. I also know what I am doing with radios, been working on them for over 35 years… you might also know my website, RadioMods.co.nz !
@@TheDefpomWhen my dad first got a look at my New Boss 429 the day I purchased it he took the pipe out of his mouth looked at me and said "What the hell do you need with a car like that" I replied in response I don't need it but I had to have it Dad. He put his pipe back in his mouth and just walked away shaking head. Point is I have modified, Repaired and installed about 30 thousand radios since 1969 and not a single one was ever needed but it was what they wanted. As a dble EE I watch Defpom because he knows what he is doing and when you take a radio that has never been modified it's a matter of accomplishment and Knowledge expansion and in that context it must be done.
pretty awesome modification. I’m going to be installing CB radio in my truck soon probably also going to build a amplifier thanks for sharing your fines
If you find a schematic or service manual for that radio, you are magical. I tried to get the service manual for a Road King which is a rebranded Uniden radio. I filed a FOIA (Freedom Of Information Act) request with the FCC since the radio was FCC type approved. Eventually, after Uniden requested that my request be denied, I replied with my rebuttal, but the FCC sided with Uniden. Uniden hid behind trade secrets laws so they did not have to release the service manual. 😮 When asked what manufacturers I now recommend, I recommend the ones who work with independent services shops. 😊
i remember the challenge ( high school electronics shop ) of designing and etching my OWN boards. long before it was ever thought of our project was to design and OP-AMP which of course is what ppl call a taser. it could kill someone ( if it was the right person of course with health complications present ) with a 9v battery. IF they hadnt locked the teacher in the tool crib for a whole lunch period i might have excelled in electronics. of course they needed a scapegoat to blame it all on so it came down to the grades ppl had in theory class. so they wanted to make me switch to another shop and instead i left the school and never graduated past 10th grade. it wasnt all due to that but troubles in the home life which was nothing but living with 3 alcoholics i had to fend of from trying to kill myself since i was 2 years old. ( my mother, sister, ( whom is still trying to complete the job 40 yrs later ) and step father ) we were all robbed... thanks for the video even this late on in life its inspirational ! even without radio (s)hack :)
Would a Expo 100 A kit work for that radio with the 15.810 and the 14.910 mhz xtal in the channel kit to signal inject the signal like the cobra 29gtl/ltd/lx radios? thanks
The FCC Rules mean nothing in Australia and New Zealand. It's funny that they pack them in radios that are sold elsewhere, especially when it states: “for export only.”
what does the NZ radio authority say about the use of modified CB radio's, which is illegal in the UK. I did find something about the "RCM mark or R-NZ label" but not much else in the 5mins I spent on the search. seems strange you went for what would seem to be a unique band plan for you CB's. was this to try and create a home based industry to met the demand? Not used a CB since they made it legal in the UK, that took all the fun away. 🙂
Ahhh, the pre '81 AM days here in the UK. A family member 'allegedly' imported AM radios back then and sold them. Then in '81 went legit when FM was legalized with a nice wee trade business supplying Scottish shops, petrol stations etc with CB gear. I was the teenage tech guy helping out doing mods and repairs.......never for one minute thinking it was a tad illegal of course!
@@IanScottJohnston Making aerials for the car that did not look like CB one's was fun. the closest commercial one was called a DV27 if i remember correctly. Looked a bit like a normal fiberglass car aerial, with an adjustment for length on the top. More fun when you thought you were a bit of a rebel. 🙂
@@TheEmbeddedHobbyist all CB radios here have to be modified from overseas, often based on Australian radios, which are based on American ones, rules are basically the same apart from the operating frequencies.

@@dj56cbsales yes I think it would work, the principle is the same
@@TheDefpom Thanks you very much for the info
The first CB looks like a modern unit made retro.
Good job :)

@@TheDefpom now it makes sense, watched you do a few of these now and was wondering what you were up to and why.
