- "804 in North Carolina" and "Number 3" Shooting CB Skip on Channel 28, November 4th 2022 at the "White Trash" in Northern Arizona.
Using a Cobra 142GTL and a Browning BR-28 Trucker Antenna
Good looking radio, the blue lights and numbers look cool.
Thanks
Much respect to you “ Number 3”. Listening to cb radio brings good memories when my father used to cb talk from Tijuana to my uncle in Guanajuato.
This is my friend "Number 3" he also has his own youtube you can watch him on... www.youtube.com/@chuponnumber3socal183/videos
I like that Turner +2 desk Mike 👍

Hey big cb radio this spot is a perfect place for a big ass base station man you are lucky to have this spot
I love the place even without a big station. That's my friend "Number 3" using my station to talk some skip while we were there. I don't keep a radio there, we just brought that Cobra 142, the little amp, and a Browning BR-28 Trucker CB antenna and used a couple dry wall screws to mount it to the top edge of the trailer. That is just a vacation spot. Starting at about 20 seconds you can see the Aubry Cliffs, at 21/22 seconds you can see a white stripe to the left down on the flatland, that is Route 66 and the train tracks that run from Seligman AZ to Peach Springs and on West.
Nice set up, waving from my tech bench. 73👋🏻
Waving Right Back
Great gate Bro, I will be listening for you out there in DX land, Get you on one of my gates. Cheers & 73's
Thanks for listening
@@bigcbradio Cheers
I like the way you have put the frequency counter in there where the speaker was
Actually this one was like that when I bought it, but I have installed frequency counters in place of the clock on several Madison base stations before. They did leave the speaker inside the radio mounted behind the frequency counter, but I like the sound better using the external speaker.
Great videogate. Love that Cobra base and that vintage Turner mic
Thanks! I love old radios and mic's
Right on! Vintage is best. Cheers@@bigcbradio
Liking that set up especially the Turner Mic
Thanks, that's my friend Number 3 talking on my radio. I have a pretty good collection of Turner Mics
I was out on the airwaves yesterday I did hear 804 on 28 but I had to get out of my truck to look at some properties for sale. When I got back in someone must have had their feelings hurt because they were blasting boy george over and over. But I could still hear quite a few stations coming over it 😁
Radio Fun
Love that radio! I have a 142 with a digi scan 400 mounted on top! Haven’t used it in 30 years. (Condo, can’t put up an antenna)😢
I know a guy that lives 71 miles away and over a hill, I can talk to him almost every night... he uses a Wilson 5000 Mag mount on his BBQ grill on his back patio... You should try that.
@@bigcbradio I will try that! I want to get back into the hobby and plan to get a mobile rig. Cheers from California!
see any sasquatch up there in the mountains
Not Yet, but do see on a regular basis, mountain lions, wild boars, cows, road runners, cats, dogs, coyotes, wolves, dear, birds, squirrels, mice, rats, owls, and a few chupacabra
Nice radio
Thanks
@@bigcbradio which one is that
@@ironhead320 That is a Cobra 142GTL that I purchased at an estate sale. Someone added that frequency counter to it by removing the speaker and cutting the hole in the front of the radio. That was the only time this radio has been used since I bought it. I still need to tune/align it.
Microphone brings back so many memories
Get another Mic and another radio and make some more memories!
Golf bravo 26th division , my personal Dave . Actually heard you this side of the pond. Qsk and standing by .
Did you hear me "white trash" or my friend in this video? He goes by "Number 3"
@@bigcbradio I listen to a lot of you people this side of a pond 27mhz upper and lower sideband . Take care mate.
10-4, Have Fun!
@@bigcbradio I heard you the other day , and shouted qsk . I'll keep trying my friend . Dave across the pond .Take care mate.
Hope to make contact soon !
Very nice! Fredd79, Chattanooga Tennessee
Thanks, that's my friend "Number 3" talking on a Modded Cobra 142gtl that I took to my old trailer on top of Preacher Hill in Arizona. I have an old mirror mount trucker antenna screwed to the eve of the trailer.
Works good!
What modifications did you make to it?
I picked that radio up from an estate sale not too long before I made this video and I haven't done anything to it. It looks okay and functions decent, but it definitely needs to be aligned. As you change from AM to Sideband it is quite a bit off frequency and also someone added a knob to the side that adds extra frequencies and those are pretty far off frequency also. you have to use the clarifier a lot to change bands/modes. I took this radio with me on this road trip to my property in the hills of Arizona and we talked on it as in this video, but the radio has not been turn on since then. I still need to get to it and align/tune everything.
I thought it was illegal to run an Amp on CB.
it is just there for looks, it has a dummy load connected on the back. It's the same in any of my videos, and when testing amplifiers, it is always on a dummy load. I have over a dozen dummy loads, ranging from a small Realistic brand 15 watt, Catalog NO 21-506, as seen in this video here ruclips.net/video/-7f4gniezaI/видео.html , all the way up to a Huge 1000 Watt Bird Model DA-173/GRM-10, as seen here ruclips.net/video/kPJDbCBAQSU/видео.html . It is all just for show... You can talk skip all around the world with 4 watts when Mother Nature says so, No extra power needed.
nice location
Thanks, its about 10 miles northwest of Seligman AZ at a little over 6000 feet.
Not necessary to cram that +2 in your gob like that.
Yes it is, you keep the mic gain down which will pick up less background noise and you sound clean and clear.
@@bigcbradio No, it's not. You're slobbering and spraying chunks into it. I have owned my +2 a lot longer than you have. It's directional. Stop eating the mike. Nobody wants to hear you smacking and lisping. Your newbie is showing.
@@bigcbradio No. Totally incorrect. Buggers spit and taco crumbs all in the screen. And hearing your blubbering smacking lips makes me want to puke.
@@bigcbradio LOL No.
@@terryparker1694 LOL, Yes.
