In my garage I have a complete CB set up that I'm never going to use again.
I'm not 'into' CB so my description will be what I know but don't ask me any technical questions.
The one thing I can tell you is that it definitely worked about a month ago. I was blowing local people's ears off and listening to conversations from miles away
It was put together by a mate who buys, sells and repairs these things and who owed me a large favour. He seemed to think that because I drive a 4x4 I should have a CB. So he gave me this kit and told me that he 'tweaked' the power a bit. I believe it might be operating at about 6 watts.
It consists of;
An old Amstrad CB901 radio that has lost all the printing from round it's dials but has switches saying PA-CB & ROGER & CHN 9. This has got a fused power lead to a cigarette lighter plug.
An Altai DMC 510 microphone that I was told was powered (?)
An neat, wee (4" x 2" x 2" approx) external speaker pod that came from an old in-car mobile phone kit. This has a mounting bracket and about 4 feet of cable to a jack plug that goes into the back of the radio.
I've kept the radio, speaker and mike in plastic bags to protect them from garage dirt.
A 6" mag mount with a stack of cable and the plug to screw into the radio.
An approximately 5 foot long aerial with a length adjuster at the bottom. This was brand new and still packed when I was given it. (If that makes any difference)
I put 'Bristol' in the title because I can't see the Post Office accepting a five foot long package so I doubt that I could post it, even if I could be bothered packing it all up.
How much? God knows?
I've had a nose on ebay but got confused when it seemed that the aerial was worth more than the radio!!
I'll say £60 but I'm open to offers. It just seems such a shame that it's just sat there.
As I said earlier on I think that it'll have to be collected - unless you've got any bright ideas for shipping.
