Lol...tis true:p There are so many advantages to being small:D

Nah! It's because you didn't want us to see the tears because you'd just smacked yourself in the cheekbone with a spanner! :( :p

Conversation went something like this:-

Me: Give us a shout if you need a hand (Sarah was bolting the NATO hitch onto Dave).
Sarah: will do........

SMACK! CLUNK! BAASTID!!

:D :D

We have all done it or something similar lol
 
Sorry to bring a newb question in here, but if i need a hand local is best ;)
The mrs (altho she dont know yet) has bought me a cb kit for xmas. I have read all sorts about set up....can anyone with expirence assist me with what to do or will the destructions have it all?
Its a cobra DX19 irc
 
The destructions should have it all. ;)

Is the antenna going on a bracket or mag mount? (Magnetic mounts don't work on aluminium roofs for instance ;) but Disco steel roofs are fine).

Don't press the transmit button without having the antenna connected to the CB - they don't like it. Once it's all connected up you will need to get it SWR'd (standing wave ratio checked) to ensure that the setup is as good as it's going to get.
