#1 : How many watts are you introducing from the radio into the amp to get a 400 watt dead key?
#2 : What are the driver tubes & driven tubes numbers?
#3 :There is no upgrade.
#4 :Do not go inside this box unless you know what you are doing ! The capacitor charge will kill you dead!
#5 : The tubes for any tube box in 90% condition are worth much more than the amp.
#6 :You probably have a 500 watt amp.
#7 In perfect condition with 90% tubes someone who likes tube boxes would probably give you a couple hundred for it.If the tubes are weak you would be lucky to get fifty bucks for it.Put it on E-bay auction.

I hope that young people today have access to a
CB so they'll have fond memories of it when they
get older and keep it alive. There is something about CB that is tremendous fun. I think it's because it is so distinctly american and free.
