Ok guys. I have been looking through some older posts and decided to just start a new one.
I am wanting to put my old cobra 29 ltd in my 2017 long horn.
First question , does anyone have any pics of installs other then on the top of the dash ? I found a picture of one that the guy bent a couple brackets up and kinda hung it in the magizine slot on the side of the consol . I kinda like it but looking for any and all ideas. And if that guy is on here, how did that mounting place work out and is it handy but yet not rubing on your leg or anything ?
Secondly , does any one have anything to say about the Wilson 1000 mag mount with the short load antenna?. I am wanting to stay with a mag mount and really like the idea of being able to unscrew the mast.
I'm not needing a super powerfull high dollar rig , just something to use on trips and play with for starters . My grandfather was big into radios and now that I'm getting older it is starting to interest me.
My 29 is stock other then a peak and tune job at Bob's cb in PA about 20 years ago. . I am curious if anyone has any knowledge about the mosfett conversion , echo and talk back boards? And are the compatible with an older early 80s radio ?
I haven't ran a cb in over 20 years things have changed.
Thanks for any help
