cb peak and tune

[MattL]

Does any one know who does this?

I don't know if they even still exist, but there was a little CB shop just North of 4500 S. on the east frontage road to I-15, up the street from McDonalds. I think it was called Contact (?). If they're still around, they could do it for you I'm sure.

Sadly Contact is out of business...

I don't know who is doing CB tuning these days, there is another com shop (Communication Products in Midvale) that sells CB (mostly HAM though). I don't think Bob does any tuning but it would be worth a call... he might know who does.

Have you set your SWR? thats super dooper important and its easy to do yourself

I have not a thing. I have just thought about getting one today. That is as far as it got. I do have an old firestix but dont know much more than that.
Was looking into the uniden 78 or 68 series or the cobra 29 series.

Anyone have comments on either of these?

thanks

I have a good used Uniden I will be selling shortly, I just upgraded to the Cobra 75 in both my rigs... Not sure which model it is (I will look) but I paid ~$75 a year or so ago.

I have 2 cobra 29's and they have been good radios, its nice to have the weather band. I wouldn't go any smaller then a 29 like the 19's I hear they are crap. There is still the CB shop in ogden next to the big Flying J on 21st street. I am sure someone on here has a SWR meter?

GTS (General Theatre Supply) used to do them. I am not sure if they still exist, since the location I know about is gone.....try looking them up maybe.

Pm me the info and the price. Is it stock or tuned?
