Title: New CB craze.. paper clip mod for D104.

Saw this.  Thought it was funny..  Sounds just like the old Browning rigs that had the PING when you keyed up.

Is this the grandaddy of the Roger Beep?  The Roger Ping.

Now that's a station accessory I don't think I could live without!

Why would I need a stinkin' paper clip when all I have to do is pluck a spring?

haha them old brownings - I sold mine for $750 a few years ago. They were really good sets, worth every penny for the serious glowbug CBer.

The ping is an evolution of the kerchunk? no, a parallel phenomenon made for a purpose, not a delightful artifact.

Now some guys have sound bite noise toys that make LOUD CLACKing sounds like a BIG relay. 

They key up and CLACK CLACK CLACK.. Then they talk.
