I'm somewhat intrigued with converting a CB radio to 10 meters from the pure technical perspective, but the typical 4 watts AM power leaves a LOT to be desired. Am I missing something here? I have a Radio Shack HTX-10 that does 7 watts AM but is more respectable on FM and SSB at 25 watts.
I have a Pace Sidetalk 1000B that I could use but it is a well featured radio with built in SWR/power meter, clock/power off timer, noise blanking, and of course SSB. The SSB is what would be attractive for conversion but I hate to butcher a nice radio. On the other hand I have an old JC Penney 23 channel radio or a Realistic TRC-430 40 channel radio(not sure if this can be done with a 1 crystal/PLL scheme) that I could use for AM and wouldn't mind diddling with but again, to what end other than the fun of it which is ok in itself I guess?
