I didn’t always work at Solid Signal. Many years ago, I was a customer just like you. I thought of the company as a great place to get DIRECTV parts. (It was, and still is.) But, I didn’t realize there’s so much more. The company has thousands of hard-to-find parts, and as you go through the site you’ll realize there are things you neve realized we carry. I thought it was time to highlight five of them. These may not be the parts for you, but think about it. If we carry this stuff, we probably carry the thing you want too.
Cable prep kit for LMR400 Cable
LMR400 cable is used extensively for cell phone signal boosters in commercial environments. It’s also used for all sorts of communications equipment. You’ll need a good, solid tool to put ends on LMR400 cable. That’s why we offer this one from Times Microwave. It has everything you need to put crimp connectors on LMR400 cables. no matter what kind. You’ll get the cable cutter, the prep tool, and the crimp tool all in one easy package. You even get a cute little carry bag.
Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
Not everyone is going to need a super-high quality video camera. But more and more people are getting into making videos. It starts with a TikTok here and a reel there, and sooner or later you’re getting some serious equipment for podcasting or freeform videos. That’s why people buy this Blackmagic 4K camera. It takes 4K video that’s studio quality in a compact package. It also has a high quality stereo microphone system so you won’t have to mic yourself separately. Professionals count on Blackmagic, and regular folks do too.
Uniden 40 Channel 4W Compact CB Radio
I’ll admit that not a lot of folks use CB radio anymore. You might not have ever seen this technology in use, or you might remember it from the 1970s if you’re old enough. But long-haulers of all kinds still rely on CB radio. CB works when cell phones don’t. It’s not only essential emergency equipment, it’s a way to make friends on the road.
You won’t find too many CBs out there, but we offer this Uniden model that’s compact and modern. We also offer a full set of antennas and mounts for the CB lifestyle. They’re hard to find in other places, and we carry it all.
Garmin marine GPS
Out on the water, you can’t rely on your phone to give you accurate directions. You need a serious GPS unit like this one from Garmin. Garmin has been the leader in GPS systems ever since the beginning, and this unit is packed with features every captain needs. It’s critical to making sure that you get home safely.
Marine smartwatch
Speaking of marine accessories, check out this cool smartwatch from Garmin. By using solar charging, you can get well over 2 weeks without having to put this one on a charger. Take that, Apple Watch! It’s also optimized for what boat captains really want. You get GPS and weather reports, and it interfaces with your other marine electronics. With the right setup, you can even steer the boat from the watch! It’s a stylish way of getting things done on a boat, and aren’t boats all about style?
Maybe this stuff isn’t up your alley but…
Not everyone is going to want the things I’ve listed here. But, I think I’ve made my point. Solid Signal isn’t just about DIRECTV splitters (although we do have DIRECTV splitters.) We’re all about the hard-to-find parts that our customers want and need. No matter who you are, you’ll find something that you need at Solid Signal.
