Did I mention about his rock that he lives under.
His youtube favourite list was interesting though, I haven't dared check it recently but he had an awful lot of videos of young men wrestling.
Maybe he used to be a priest

To be honest I don't hate him as he is knowledgeable and in fairness he is still supporting CB and using it so really he shouldn't be knocked.
At least he is not playing music or talking on 19

I was thinking of sending him a radio with a 5 tone bleep, echo, Mid block and a built in amp for a tune up to see what he does :D

They don't now, the picture just freezes, goes all blocky, and the sound goes all d.d.d.d.d.d.digital (so my misses says).
The perfect face for radio.

There is no such thing as a Fidelity 1000 which is too good to scrap.

I dont want anyone to think that I am bad mouthing or running the guy down because I do really enjoy watching his channel which I am subscribed to and he really knows his stuff when it comes to 27/81 sets but the modding thing does make me chuckle. I wish I knew half the stuff he does.

Just a bit of fun :thumbup:

The Tristar mic in one of the videos was the best bit for me.
