Hi, 

On that line I have a General Electric 3-5804D Pll-02a Cybernet 40 Channel I picked up
and I now have on all 0's not 5's so it reads 29.000 and it has turned out to be a little gem
and the modification was nothing out of the ordinary 3 watts out an the west coast is no
problem here. :-)

I have a Sharp 40 channel AM only CB rig circa 1979 or maybe 1980 that 
was
converted to 10 meters long ago.

About an hour ago, I fired it up for the first time in at least 10
years, and had a 15 minute qso with W7QQQ in   Arizona. Jack was only
using a dipole at 12 feet above ground, but could still hear my 3.5
watt carrier and  associated audio above the noise.

So, look under the bed, in the attic, the basement, or anywhere else
these old boxes tend to hide, dust them off, power them up, and make a 
"little big noise" on 10 meter AM.
