GENERAL LEE C.B.:

     Has anyone experienced trouble with there general lee radio just up and shutting off, seems to do this every 5 months and I have checked or replaced just about all that I can. Even installed small fan to try to keep cooler, I have had no luck with finding a repair shop that is worth the money they charge and am wanting some good advice. I have my spare, and has no trouble working , good ole cobra.....

i see you are from ne dont know how close you are to grand island but there is a good cb shop out on bosselmans by the interstate. they can open it up and look inside. sounds like you could have a cracked board or a lose solder connection. these guys are good.they do my work for me

You can take it to the guy i bought mine from. He is a mobile CB shop. He is either at Wings America at Avoca on Tuesdays and Wednesday or at Sapps in Council Bluffs on Thursdays and Fridays. He does really good work and is reasonable.

    Thanks to all of ya that wrote,  I fixed the problem while in Sioux City that ol boy will rattle for an hour and charge you very little but fixed the radio , including the parts that bosselmans c.b. shop missed. even scratched out there enitials that they left inside , real proud of the job they did taken my money I guess.. Anyhow the radio works great and that's the goal, Take it easy fellas........
