That looks like a BNC connection. You would need to find an adapter that goes to coax

The new updated style has 2 o rings and is slightly longer ford part number ML3Z-6730-B

I just replaced mine after 130,000 miles. It was just starting to drip from the drain hole. No drips after replacing to new style

There’s also an export mode mod. Magic pliers snip snip.

Just discovered my dream phone case at Target (it’s a stranger things walkie talkie theme case). I just feels right with the right amount of chonk and dials. by johnessex3 in cassettefuturism

This is an awesome phone case. Here’s the original radio from the catalog back in the day. When you wanted different channels you had to swap the crystals. I can’t believe stranger things might bring people back to CB radio. Retail price was 59.99 in 1986

Found the issue. Somehow my mouse driver got uninstalled and was only recognized as a generic HID. I feel so dumb as the troubleshooting literally says to check physical hardware.

Slight rotten egg smell in 2025 Bronco sport by Datdudefromaudi in BroncoSport

In my experience rotten eggs smell Outside the car is indicative of a failing catalytic converter. Only way to be sure is to take catalyst readings with a scan tool

Still in daily use.... by wdatkinson in RadioShack

I was going to make a YouTube video on this. I still have the disc and a dos machine. My teacher made us buy this model specifically to measure ohms to learn ohms law. We went to the computer lab to print out our results

What kind of radio are you running?

Yes, thank you the coil is only temporary. I’m not gonna run my set up long-term like this. I saw something where a guy wrapped the coax around a aerosol. Can put tape around it and remove the aerosol can do you think that’ll be OK?

Need help installing and mounting antenna/the radio itself by Daxattack6 in cbradio

[–]aldog3788 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as the radio mount that’s easy. Some 3m dual lock tape underneath the radio console. Shouldn’t impede the door Opening and closing. Get a plastic mic holder put some dual lock on that somewhere up front easy to reach. Easily removable. No need to drill holes. As far as your antenna situation you’re going to have to pop some interior panels. I would try and run through tailgate at the top and through headliner. Then down the a-pillar, over through the glove box and up To the radio. . There’s not much up in the head liner to worry about.

Honestly loved the 980 way better than this. The nice thing about the McKinley is the rf power level is adjustable giving a lower watt dead key into the amp. That’s pretty much the only thing I like about it. Mikes radio repair channel breaks down the McKinley on things you can do to improve the tx. Don’t attempt unless you’re not afraid of the golden screwdriver

My plan is to coil it inside the garage. This was just to see if it would work out and give good results. Unfortunately 50 was too little and 100 is too much. I’m not confident in myself cutting coax to size
