Someone mentioned Motorola CBs in a post a while back, I had mentioned I had had one back in the 80's or e90s, and quit using it due to mic problems.
Well today it was warm enough to go outside without parts falling off, and I dug through my garage till I found it. An old 4022 40 ch with a CAL COM mic and a 4002 that I had picked up for parts at a flea market back in the day.
Well I tracked the problem down to a broken wire in the mic (PTT sw gnd) and now the ol' girl is working fine! I think I'll mount it next to my MaxTrac in my "Shack".
Just for s**ts and giggles I hooked up the 4002 parts radio, and it works! (I had never tried that) it just has parts of the case, mic and all the knobs missing...
