George, ask around and see if there is a radio club in your area. I found mine for 10.00 at one of the local club's yard sale. Not having your ant. tuned can result in very poor quality. If there is enough feed back I believe it can also damage your radio. This last staement is more repeating gosip then fact! Someone will correct me if I'm wrong

Anyone have any idea why my CB won't turn on at all? channel numbers don't even come up and from what i can tell everything in the back of the unit is hooked up. Ideas anyone?

Check the inline fuse that should be between the radio and it's power source. If that is good, test the wires at the CB to make sure it is getting 12 volts.
