Thanks Dan! At least my $1.75 beacon is working and my plastic tuning tool for
the trimmer got it close. 73, Ed K7OC

Your frequency is on, or close to where you should be. Unfortunately, I hear
K5AHH just below you, (a few Hz, maybe 100 or so), I think he is the one off
frequency, however.

I got the Midland 13-883C CB modified about an hour ago and seems to be
percolating along at about 2 watts.   Just put it on 24/7 about 2345Z. My
frequency is supposed to be 28.252.5 --hope with the trimmer cap that I got it
in the ballpark and on the money.  Any reports of WHERE I am on frequency would
be appreciated if I am being heard.  If this works, I’ve got 50 cents into the
yard sale CB and $1.24 into the 9.6 crystal and the trimmer cap.  (A buck a
watt if it works!)  Thanks all for your time!  73, Ed K7OC  EM12gs White
