Well hold that thought. If I magically start getting curious about rigs again, you might have a business where I might send you a rig and have it mod it. I just don't do it anymore. I'm mostly just always on my computer or something. But yeah, if I'm ever hyper about extending let's say a VHF HT or some kind of CB, then be around. Yeah, because CBs are fun to modify too where you put the extras in them. So yeah, highly illegal. Same thing as HF radios are fun when you put the CB band in it. Highly illegal. That one there, like on your average Kenwood, you just have to clip the diode. You have to clip the diode that's locking it out. Because what it does is it blocks out 27 megahertz from transmitting and some other place too I can't remember. And so you just have to disable that. You just have to rip that padding off of it and all of a sudden it'll start transmitting again so you can blaze 100 watts on 27 megahertz, which I'm not against doing. Not when there's people that put in anywhere from a thousand, three, five, six thousand watts and more than that on like some of the AM channels. So I don't feel no ways about it. I never understood that power restriction. It's just silly. You know, you hear, I've seen some YouTube videos of American guys and they're running five, six, seven hundred watts in CB. It's nuts. You know, and then you get these guys with the HF rigs pushing a kilowatt or more. And you know, I can't see the need for a kilowatt. Like my hundred watts so far has been able to hit quite far. I mean, once I get my antenna up a little better away from those power lines, I don't think I'm going to need more than a hundred watts.
