Just been rummaging through the shed, and found my step dad's old CB Transceiver with the Mic and an aeril.
(He's a lorry driver)
This is what I've found:
Basically is that.
It has a red wire, and a black wire coming out the back, guessing for the power supply.
Jimmy (stepdad) said I could run it off a 12Volt battery.
But I'd rather plug it into the mains..
Thats my first question: How do I go about that? what would I need?
The aeril I found in the garage isn't the longest of aeriels, but looks like it could receive A good local signal.
If you haven't already guessed it's off his lorry :D .
Looks like this:
He told me somewhere he has the connector for the aeril to be plugged into the transceiver, but we both haven't got a clue where it could be, had a look in the box I found the transceiver, but no sign of one.
Thats my second question, Where can I get one of those?
If I ever mange to get this working, I'll probably end up getting a longer CB aerial etc.
Also, would I need A license for this?
By the way, I've tried google, but it's all links to eBay etc, and i'd rather read info about the products etc :)
