It's a nice find, but...
I thought, and hoped-for a BUDDY BASE.
BB RARE AND WORTHY OF PRAISE!!!
That is a nice looking radio, just like the cars of that era they tried to have a look that stood out from the crowd!
I love the looks of the radios (and cars) from that era ... as well as so many other things that came from that time period . Thanks for watching the video .
Sanyo was big in stereo and TV and I guess early 70's CB great find
I get good reports with it too .
Was goofing off at the lake when the video came out. Catching up now. Nice find, Raccoon! Never ran across one of these Sanyo radios. Saw and heard alot of them decades ago. Even did some Sanyo installs for others back in the day. Had the opportunity to tinker with a few on the bench now and then. Fondly remember the "On The Air" display, instead of the Red Transmit Light of todays radios.
Maybe this fall, after lake time, I'll catch you on the air. Keepin' The Hobby Hoppin'...😑🦗
Thanks Stoneface , I like the way the "On The Air" lights up , and the "Modulation" light flashes with your audio . I wish they still made them like that . I would love a new radio that had all the newer technological features , like the AM/FM/USB & LSB and at least 40 channels ... but looks like one of the older radios with a wood grain looking case , actual knobs , and a needle meter ... along with that "On The Air" , and "Modulation" lights .
All they're making these days are little black box "Mobile" radios that all look the same , overloaded with menus , and tiny buttons . Nothing too impressive to look at . There's definitely no selection of base radios if someone wants one for their home . The only base CB you buy these days is the Galaxy DX-2547 . So if you're looking for a base , you don't have a variety of choices to choose from ... unless you buy a vintage base station .
Sweet find Mr raccoon
Thanks Steve ... it's definitely a nice addition to my collection
"Rarest"? doubt it... Nice old radio in great shape though! Enjoyed the video, thanks for sharing 👍
I'm glad you liked the video . It might not be the rarest , but I definitely had an extremely hard time finding much of anything out about it on the internet ... and thank you for watching .
I had a Motorola 40 channel upper and lower sideband base station it was a really good radio. Never had a sanyo never even heard about one until your video.
I've seen the Motorola , but I've never had one before . Thanks for watching the video .
That's a Canadian version of the old Teaberry base radio back in the 70's.
I wouldn't be surprised . I couldn't find anything out about it online . Just someone else trying to find out more about it too.
Very nice find my friend, I’m jealous.
Thank you very much Bob
Nice score. I'm jealous.
Cheers

Thanks Luke
lucky catch my friend
Thanks DD
Nice find, but hardly the rarest cb radio. I was hoping for a cpi or a tram.
I have a CPI 2000 actually , and I plan on eventually featuring it in a video . But I have an easier time finding out information online about my CPI than I did for this radio . The only information that I found out about this radio online , was another guy asking if anyone had ever heard of it before .... lol.
Thanks for watching the video , and for your comment . I like to hear from my viewers .
Thats just cool
... and I just stumbled on it by accident .
Wow you lucky dog that is nice😀
Thanks Hemp Head ... it was definitely a nice addition to my collection . Now if I could find out some information about it , that would be great ... lol
I have some radios similar to that one.
Super nice.
Definitely ... I really like the older radios .
Really nice find. It sounds good too.
12ny🇺🇸🤘
Thanks Bob ... you know
@@RaccoonsRadioRanch I thought the rarest mobile CB radio is the CHERAKEE 'Nightrider' 150 ?
@@unitedstatesirie7431 I can find a lot of information online about the Nightrider 150 . At the time I made this video there was only one site online that said anything about the Sanyo , and he was just asking if anyone knew anything about it because he couldn't find anything online about it either .
Question: who taught you to " whistle" on SWR test when doing that you change the sensitivity of the meter especially in calibrate mode you increase or decrease out put of radio ( whether it has forward drive or reverse drive)
Good antique find it reminds me of the teaberries style radios of the early 70s
I've been in radio long enough to know that already ... it was to get the needle to move to show a result in the video
Sorta looks Pierce Simpson-esk
awe some.wow
Great radio !! I’ve got a radio full of New York still on SSB ,, let me know if you’re on there monitoring and what channel
I was staying on 38 LSB , but I was only hearing the West . South Dakota , Kansas , Arkansas , Minnesota , Missouri .... places like that
@@RaccoonsRadioRanch
I got northeast SSB again . Hopefully in runs all day again
Could not find Mr. Scary's unknown sightings

Nice rare radio for sure. I hope 390 Wagon Master approves of the un boxing, There was no blue tape used, but none was needed. He has a fetish for blue tape. LOL21 S.C. Old Radio Night
Hey "Double D" it's good to hear from you , I hope things are going well for you .
Now ... to be honest, tape is tape ... and blue tape is definitely not the best tape to be using for anything , especially shipping . So I don't understand what the purpose for using blue tape in an unboxing video is . Besides , like you said ... I bought this radio at a Rummage Sale , not online , shipping was not involved ... so no tape was needed ... lol
@@RaccoonsRadioRanch 10-4 just a spoof me and 390 Wagon Master do back and forth. He started using it to cover up the names and addresses of the senders.After that, I started cutting open boxes even with a 12" chop saw. LOL Have a great weekend, 21 S.C.
@@UDX-21 It's a good idea , I've watched his unboxing videos before , I have no idea how I missed that ... lol .
Looks lime a royce 619 sort of
BTW what's the normal CB radio antenna you use at your
normal QTH, just curious. Unable to use my CB in the summer months because of a window A/C unit that creates so much RFI plus just being loud. I remove it after summer months and just use the central AC unit which is quite in both areas.
I'm using a homemade 11 meter horz wire antenna but it doesn't seem to very well work well with the mobile units that pass through my area but I have talked some skip to the NW US and Caribbean station and some southern Florida stations during daylight hours. Twice\exchanges with a UK mobile operating on the beach at landends with his temporary beam antenna directed to North America. I don't use it a night cause I'm earl to bed. Though I've tried earl morning hours 4-5 am but not much luck .
N ot many other base stations around in my rural area most use the Bofang talkies now. Especially during hunting season. I am in rural NW Louisiana, I am also a ham radio operator but primarily digital and an active supporter of the whisper radio service and experiment, I get short contacts over the world with just 5-10 watts SSB.
I'm Fixing to set up a 10 meter beacon low power station since solar cycle is favorable.
CB was my first radio love and still like informality and outlaw aspect of that part of the radio hobby. Less stuff shirt types and anal retentive operators trying to bust peoples balls.
Also interested in the prepping movement/ clubs and pirate broadcasting though I'm not hearing much from them anymore.
Sorry didn't mean get so long winded here. Enjoy your reviews & the info you're sharing. Lee it up. 73
Den , my base antenna is a 10/11 meter Imax 2000 5/8 wave vertical antenna that is made by the Solarcon antenna company . I've talked all over the world using that antenna . I'm planning on switching over to a Maco V 5/8's antenna before the snow starts falling . But I've been saying that for 2 years now , I guess I'm a procrastinator ... lol . Anyway , I'm sure you'd have better luck making contacts on 11 meters (CB Radio) if you were using a vertical antenna rather than a horizontal antenna . Probably just about everyone on CB is using vertical antennas , so if you're shooting a horizontal signal to a vertical antenna ... the person trying to receive you is going to have a harder time hearing you . And it will be the same way if you're trying to hear them . The people that you've made contacts with so far would have heard you a lot better if you had been using a vertical antenna instead of a horizontal one . Thanks for the questions , and for watching the video .
Sounds like your ,window AC could use couple ferrite chokes placed on the power line may drop out some your static rfi otherwise find newer model
@@RaccoonsRadioRanch vertical source but skip changes the polarity mid jump the waves are not stable in only vertical polarity by the time your signal makes say 3500 miles it may have twisted three times so each hop is like a crap shoot you may do better one time on horizontal then on vertical later in the same day to same far station
Hence the word operator one gets used to switching polarities as needed
Vertical ize that dipole for local
@@johniedesk1 Thanks
The Live Chat stopped , but I'm there Dallas
I hear a lot of people & noise , but nothing real strong .
I've seen Sanyo Mobile CB radios but never a base unit.
I'm having a hard time finding any information about it online too . To be honest , I haven't found anything ... just a sideways picture of one
Nice radio to bad it doesn’t have ssb
I agree with you 100% Brian .
Wasn't able to find Mr Scary's channel ???
You can find Mr. Scary's channel right here : th-cam.com/channels/wJYz00_jZuw9OlgN1YzvMg.html
its just too bad that its not a side bander'''but nice.
I agree ... but then again , nobody uses Sideband anywhere on the original 23 channels anymore anyway ... which is too bad
@@RaccoonsRadioRanch yes'''' you are right'''''''good point'''''but a keeper''''''''good ''ol radio,,,,thank you.
Generic AM Radio. Nothing Special, but very cool to find new in box.
Rarest? The Stoner Pro 40
I can find more information about the Stoner Pro 40 on the internet than I can for this radio ... a lot more .
Just to let yall know: Capicators over timed do start to break down "Over Time Alone". Age alone kills capicators. You do not have to run them. Might I suggest that you have a radio tech replace all the caps with "New" caps and while he is at it check all the high value resistors for their value and replace all resistors that have their stated value compromised.
N5LRZ Ray
I've told my viewers that exact same thing . I always tell them that I love the older radios , but if you're going to get one ... be sure to replace electrolytic capacitors because they usually go bad over time .
Tell me what you paid and I'll subscribe.
lol 😆
First
Thanks for coming by Patricia
@@RaccoonsRadioRanch you're welcome I'm glad I could come
This is a nice Vintage find radio for cheap still in the box too bad it only has 23 channels It would have been better if it had FM AM and USB LSB together with 240 channels!
I'm starting to see a trend of you guys comparing "converted 10 meter ham radios" to the classic CB radios , and in all honesty that's like comparing a super model to a grandma ... they're not the same ... lol
