Hey guys/gals
My new rig came with a CB installed with antennae and all, and it turns on, but ZERO reception. Nothing.
I'm not very good w/ electronics and I want someone who does this for a living to help....
Therefore - Does anyone local (Southern Orange County/Northern San Diego County) have anyone they can recommend?
Christiaan...you might start by checking to make sure all the switches on the faceplate are in their right positions. Sometimes they get moved to PA, or CH9 receive, etc.
If that all checks out, I would look at the coax connector for the antenna on both ends as well. Common problems here are the ground wire off of the antenna. Curious what your antenna mount looks like. Kinda tough to diagnose through a website, but if you want to post up some pics of the antenna mount, we can try.
Also, do a search over on thenewx or here for "cb install" and "cb antenna" and that should give you a little background.
Worst case, maybe we can all take a look at it during the Big Bear run.
Good luck!
