What do YOU run in the mobile?

[Coheed]

I run a Cobra 29 NW with the irf 520 mosfet finals! Wilson 100 mag mount and a Uniden BC246t Trunk Tracker III scanner. In my little red Dodge Dakota!

Nice setup!

[freddo]

I posted what I run in the mobile about a year and a half ago... but today I just came across what I used to run in the last car. CB was the famous Midland 79-290 (should have kept that one!) and the dual bander is a Yaesu FT8500.

Bump.

Got a '98 Blazer on Saturday. Planning to install my DX 959 in it soon. Might be sending the radio to Sparky for peak and tune + top gun mods. :D

Cobra LX LE 50 Year Anniversary Review

I had them install the large final (MOSFET 520) & peak and tune.

* Included with the Large Final Peak & Tune:
* Full transmit section realignment
* Full receive alignment
* Metering Alignment
* Squelch Alignment
* Antenna Warning Indicator (AWI) check and Alignment

The radio dead keyed @ 8 watts and transmitted 38 watts on the Bird Wattmeter.

I love the color display. Blue for day and Amber for the night. All this is in my 2011 Cascadia Freightliner.

Wow, that's a fancy looking radio

[Delivery Man]

I drive a big old 90 civic wagon, yes a civic wagon. LOL! I run a cobra 29 ltd classic with modulation kit, and talk back , deadkey 3 1/2 watt swind 25 watt. There's a little help with a palomar 400 running through a rm wilson 1000. The alt has been replaced with a 120 amp unit (stock 60amp) bonded all doors hood hatch exhaust and the engine. the main batt is replace with an optima 51r and the cb system runs off the aux optima 34/78 both batt are yellow tops. Funny when someone wants to put an eyeball on Delivery Man I guess they expect me to pull up in a truck or suv. I also have a 1984 dodge b250 van equipment in honda from van, the little beater out talked the big best. I'll try to post pics when I have a chance

[Bad Clams]

No pics yet, but im running a 2510 through a wilson 5000 I have a palomar red devil 350 when things get rough. im really happy with the wilson it really does a good job. I have the ol' cig lighter cord with the rig laying upside down on the seat, I'd really like to mount it so I can change freq's easier when im driving. just something about a tweeker smashing my door glass and rippin' the thing out during the night keeps me from doing it up nice and right.

Ive recently took out the old rat shack 447 and put in a Cobra Black Chrome W/RFX 75unit installed!!(SCHWING!!),Just pulled the trigger on a 10K,out with the old in with the new.....OVER!!

[ElPhantasamo]

Im my ranger I have A Uniden PC78XL. P&T, beep and noise toy to a K-40+ on the headache bar. 1.1:1 SWR
I also have a kenwood TK-840 for GMRS to a Maxrad 5dB gain antenna. 1.0:1 SWR
Both are attached to the floor by a custom mounting plate I made from aluminum.

This is before I started modding the radio.


Heres how it looks now


I put the heliwhip on the other side just for the picture, It was removed promptly after seeing the unwanted effect it had on my SWR.

[Chester]

My set up changes from time to time , but right now I'm running a General Lee (done up by Sparkys) a Fatboy 1x4 and a 102 inch whip. I must say I tossed this 102" whip on my truck and never had an antenna tune as flat as this one, and it's been in my shop fpr the last 20 years LOL

Figures, I missed adding the other pic's

[mat_me]

I am running a Stryker 440 tuned and peaked at the shop tied to a FC390 freq. counter and out to a K 40. With xmas round the corner im ready to open my gift to me. A wilson 1000 mag mount on my 98 dodge ram. I have in my possesion a RM Italy KL300p that needs to make its way inline once the wilson is up. And as so many others there are other radios that get dropped in from time to time. :r&r:

[hilltop 439]

I run a Mirage 9900 hooked to a RM p203 and a workman swr meter with a 102 inch whip works great.

Running the Uniden 76XLW with 636L and pushing a T.S. 350... into a Wilson 5000.. oh yeah!!! Not alot but it gets the job done

[CPO747]

I'm running a Galaxy DX 979 (Blue LED Model) with a Wilson 5K (MAG) wrapped in a Patriotic Blue 2005 PT Cruiser...Was working a Cobra 18WXST with a Wilson "Lil Wil" which worked fine but didn't have much room for expansion outside of changing out antenna's. Very pleased with the Galaxy/Wilson match , two strong elements that work well together!

That is a cool looking radio! I saw it the other day on one of the Sponsor's site and if I ever get another vehicle, I will get one of these, modded of course...
Currently still running the Galaxy 99V with a lil Wil in my Dodge. I'm thinking of upgrading to a different antenna soon so I can get better SWR across the bands rather than being stuck with it being "good enough" on one channel. I think I need more length, but who doesn't?!?

I throw my small 2 cents worth in... Midland 77-099 with a Magnet base load 40"" whip on a 1990 Buick LeSabre.
Will upgrade soon but still searching for the right set up to go with.
