There is nothing cuter than a Qbox HD Mini. I don't watch much telly, I am too busy looking at minejoint10

You have done great there for your first setup and looks really neat and tidy too.. Only 1 thing mate that you should be aware of.. the K part of your bracket should be at the top with the T at the bottom as the top is where most of the support is required.The T part of the T+K is really just to steady the pole..

As said you have done well using a T+K bracket as most would have used a fixed bracket which is a bad idea for motorised systems.

nice and tidy setup m8 would look better with a 51" 3d plasma tho hehe

Hi just lookin at your setup,is that a cb aerial on the end of your building?

doubt it --cb aeriels were on 27mhz....

Yeah i know,why do you think not m8,maybe still possible...

now that you mention it ,,you could be right,,
citizens band was changed onto FM only over there I do recall but cant remember when and I was judging by placement of the base coil ..
Mckee will be on later and tell us all about it ;)

I used to be into CB when I was young - had a 1/4 wave aerial on a scaffold and had a nice set of boosters and high mid and low channels- AM, FM - etc - was great fun!

Hehe thought so (only other thing it was,was either wi-fi or marine radio lol),those were the dayz,had lots of rigs & twigs in my time,best rig had to be Cobra 148 GTL DX with all the mods,plus a couple of powerful burners,also i had two twigs setup at the time,one on the back of my house was a Sigma 4(20' scaffold pole)the other on the stack was a Might Magnum (15' scaffold pole),brilliant dayz....

Good times indeed, had numerous rigs myself as well as a Sigma 4.

he's a bit of a trucker is our Mckee :) So he likes to play convoy, rubber ducky chat etc with his fellow truckers!

I had a uniden/ace 100 and upgraded to a 200, I always wanted the homebase 400 because it looked the business, my first ariel was a 'bog roll special' :)

Don't think my parents were impressed, when I was calling 'side' and 'side come in' in my sleep lol

i have great memorys of cb radio on am back in the ealry 80's, best money i ever spend.

Eye balled this young lady when i was 17 & she was 18.

31 years later we have been married for 25 years, just come back from our 2nd honey moon to new york.

Congratulations :party:, well I still have a nack at finding the psychotic ones

All them days calling 19 for a copy, on the side, eyeballs (I met some nice members of the opposite sex this way, if you like the Jeremy Kyle variety lol), and messing with the aerial and SWR meter to stop your rig getting hot and increasing your signal! - but I remember it was obligatory to open up your CB and with a screwdriver, turn up the power with that variable resistor! You would never have thought I was such a geek - and I was only 14 years old!!!
