On this video we take a look at a lovely but dead US CB radio and we show you the difference between CB and 2M FM between myself and Mick.

Another classic saved, yes 2 meters is very good, but there is not much activity on there, I still hear more breakers on the 27/81 in my 20. 😉

Any idea how to cure the meter on AM transmit moving backwards with my voice instead of forward? Or does it not matter....? I see it on a lot of radios...
@knoxieman9 ай бұрын
If the meter is moving backwards it sometimes means the mod is too high and it's being clipped by the diodes in the set.

Quite possibly the worst CB radio ever made. In my opinion
