Thank you very much for the Video . I used to own one of these back in 1989. It's a very rare CB Base Station to have.. I loved mine.

I'd love to buy this ❤

Great Christmas present!

How could I buy this radio?

In the 1970's i picked up my Sears Road Talker up from a table in Sears I guess the store was closing going out of business, and they had all the radio with everything else on a table for great prices .

Came out in late 1972, my base in high school, still have it.

Its an updated Radio Shack DX-100 with a better quality speaker and with a lower quality fine tuning ability. The Emerson version also has a different signal meter and doesnt do fine tuning. Not bad for a 25+ year old receiver for AM/Shortwave and Weather band. It will pick up air band but the static between transmissions gets annoying.

I wonder what happened with this channel - I just happened to find it. Lots of cool stuff on here. 📻

Blessed love to all, Can I get the spec for this antenna please an thanks, Watching from Jamaica west Indies !!

How many power wats?

someone intentionally broke the radio and smashed the mother board?

The 23 channel version was my first CB radio. Still have it. Bought it at a yard sell for $10

Silicone tape is what I use for joints. Works great and a cleaner install. 100% weather proof.

Nice radio

looks to be in great shape - I have one I bought in the 80s from Radio Shack. It has transisters breaking down so I try to not use it. I want to get someone to go through it so I can once more use it. I only get about hald of a meter band, the other part is dead throughout the spectrum.

I had one of theses back in the day and ran a 250 kicker with it and a silver Eagle mic! 😮 OMG did that get out!

hello.i have a realstic dx-160 i just had it tune up and the knobs clean.my antenna is a g-450 loop antenna.im still trying get to pick up signal.

I have one it needs A little work

I stumbled up on one looks like brand new everything works on it all the tubes it's a little Jewel it came with a Turner SSB + 2 transistorized desktop mic... Doing around 50 watts... A perfect clean little radio and I love it.......

Awesome radio. Thanks for sharing with us!

That was my first base station cb, back in 1980.. It was a good radio in its day.

First time I see one

Any idea where one might find the power cord(s) for this?

CAN SOMONE WIRE ME A MIC ILL PAY AND SHIPPING,,, THANKS

wear i get mic i need a wired mic for the radio i have a cobra cam 88

I had many of them 😂😂😂😂😂

Due to all the china junk thesebjaan builds have become highly sought after. I myself have 2 of them and love them. And as for who built them i have no clue. But they are tanks. And cybernet is my bet.

Still wish I had radio

I'd cut that clock stuff out of the module and install a good quality speaker.

I use a pal-vfo all 40 +upper (freeband)

I have one brand new never used in its original packaging and box. A true gem.

Great audio on the old girl.

i'm trying to replace one of these mics now. it came with my 70's rca co-pilot. oddly enough, i haven't been able to find another mic besides this one that will work with it.

bought one at a hamfest solid radio very heavy had the 3810 back in the day great radio to but more cheaply made

Just picked this exact model up but unfortunately there's no power whatsoever. Is there anything internal that I could check that may be often at fault?

Great video but JEEEZUS TURN DOWN THE VOLUME OR SPEAK UP!!!!!!!!!!!

Citizen. Remember them? Big electronics outfit that seemed to disappear overnight. I say Citizen also because they were branded and sold under various labels, Sears, Penny.

I recently picked up one of these, but always wonder why on these videos you run the RF gain so high? I find less noise with my RF gain at 3-6, noisier above 6. I don't have any drift issues on mine either, not sure if some early mfr runs might have had some issues.

They could be modified to put out 30 watts!

Be careful of that mike, they were bad about shorting to the mike case and giving you a jolt!!😲😲😲

About when was it made

If I remember correctly, I believe the Roadtalker radio was built by SBE.

It's made in Japan. Why don't you turn it off so we can hear You talk? It's very annoying with the radio. Go and just turn it on to show that it works. And then shut it down and talk to us about it

Need bearing assembly for ar 40

In the 1970s I can remember seeing lots of ads for mail in electronic courses in magazines. One of the schools mentioned the owner of D&A was a student and showed one of the amplifiers.

Is hard to watch a KZbin video without wondering what happen to the person that just stop posting after this video.

I once had one of these, inherited from an uncle. He is the one who introduced me to shortwave. Sadly, during a move, between loads, someone broke into the house I was moving from and stole it, among other things. Someday I'll get another, I feel I owe that to my uncle.

I hope this goes out to everyone who posted here and they're still alive -- this is an old post!. I've owned one of these Road Talkers for near-on to 35 years and stupidly blew the finals when I ignored the SWR Warning. But now, I'm looking for a SAMs for it and I get 2 different results: SAMs CD-26 and CD-246. Does anyone know for sure and better yet, does anyone have both or even one of those SAMs?

I owned a 25A model back in the 60's. It had the best receiver of any of the many sets I owned! Sensitivity was VG, channel to channel selectivity fair, but resistance to overload by nearby CB'ers was exceptional! Sorry I sold it when I thought I was trading up to a POS Courier Royale...

Late 70's had a sears road talker 23 channel, was a great talker
