This video just landed in my inbox from someone that must watch Snake Radio Customs’ live stream. He clearly hates Hard Drive. A lot.
Does someone have the whole thing? I have two pieces of it but that’s it. I am guessing people were watching the stream and he unexpectedly went off.
Update: More backstory as to what happened and another short clip from another reader:
Update 2: This turns out to be a fabrication by Fine Tune CB trolls. The videos below are out of context. Fine Tune CB or a troll account of his was on his live stream at the time.
I was watching Tim work on a radio and he was screaming about an echo board not working. Then he started to scream about a channel mod not working. He could not get the low channels or something like that. He kept going back and forth from the computer every time it said that he had mail or something. I heard him play a Fine Tune CB YouTube video and he just started to rant about Fine Tune’s claims.
Hi everyone:
The reason I went off on mark at fine tune because one of his trolls Scot Johnson or rabbid dickhead who is Scot Johnson I am sure of it OR himself just started hammering my live stream chat with slur after slur after slur and I had enough, I was having a stressful day to start with and I blew up. I am not a door mat I am a type A personality and do not hold my emotions in EVERYONE knows this about me! That kind of stress will kill you if you hold it in. Well the scumbag Mark Sherman has really done it this time. He has no idea what going to occur if he decides to continue with his slander and stabbing me in the back with the posted videos on his YT channel. I have people out there who hate him with a passion for his bullshit and know where he is at.. Mark Im telling you nicely if you continue to slander me you be very sorry for the day you ever started your shit! You can count on it. Mark`s 1 hr rant about me says it all. I am in his little pea brain big time. He fucked with the wrong tech this time. I chose to take the high road by removing my rebuttal videos from my channel like a real man does but not Shemi oh no he has to keep going. I am gathering intelligence on him now and It will take him right the fuck out of business. You have NO idea Mark how many people I know in high places. I guess ill have to put up the videos and a few new ones again. I really don`t want to. You know the funny thing is I never talked any smack about him EVER before all this shit with the truck stop video and an x customer of mine which by the way i offered to take the radio back 2 times from him and refund his money. I have the phone call of that as well. But the customer did not want to be bothered and did not chose to accept my offer to refund his money HUMM seems a bit suspicious to me since he had been talking to mark for at least 2 plus yrs prior! Proof can be given for that as well. but it seems he has been talking smack about me for a long time Mark that nis and I did not know about it at all.. It just got bad when I started doing Strykers and anytone`s taking money out of his pocket. Well all I can say is business is good right now and people now know who the scumbag Mark Squirmy Sherman hangs with. The cesspool of the Internet crowd. It`s a shame for him and he should be ashamed of himself and worry more about his backlog of his over priced under worked radios. He is so arrogant. No tire kickers no phone number no email? No live bench cam? WTF man. The guy`s at ev blog are laughing at him and his free space test of the maxi pad mod. See link. Tim Owner of Snake Radio Customs.

Good luck, fine tune isn’t a registered business, doesn’t collect or pay sales tax, uses a po box, and lives in a camper on a run down dirt lot trailer park.
I watched Mark Sherman of fine tune radios videos, for three years, pay attention , pay attention he says…to what? A sliver of a screen with an occasional puff of candida vape emulsifying into a customers radio, well at least we saw him do something to it. Now don’t get me wrong, i did observes many other things, the slander of every other radio tech and most amp builders, a dog, the desert, and now the free air max mod regulator saga, to which everyone had a good laugh with on the eevblog. Personally i wouldn’t let Mark S fine tune the string going to a soup can, which would be all i could afford after purchasing a black box import for the price of ham gear from him.
Ok well the joker did send me the radio but it is in a sad state of affairs and he spent 40 bucks and money for gas and time to deliver me a cobra 29 for the customer to fix if i can. The radio smells burnt.
I`ll do my best like i always do and I did follow up as I stated I would. I just can`t be associated with him at all.
He`s too insolvent and not a good business person. I am in no way affiliated with him or anything he does. Period!
Tim is a GOLDEN SCREWDRIVER cb modifier.
He proclaims to be “self taught “.
No argument there.
He has no real knowledge of electronics theory.
He gets all his mods from the Internet.
Who in their right mind would spray down an electronic circuit board with engine de greaser then hose it off.
I like the part when he shows you how he removed all the wax from the VFO circuit area and chipped away all the dried glue from the crystals and says he doesn’t know why the put it there to begin with .
Maybe he should go back to the Internet and look it up.
He buys fancy used test equipment but really doesn’t know how to use it properly.
He has no real understanding of electronics and radio theory.
I really love it it when he aligns a side band radio.
AM, USB AND LSB SHOULD NOT BE SET TO EXACT CENTER FREQUENCY.
For example, he will set 27.405 AM to center.
Then he will set 27.405 LSB to exactly center
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME.
IT’S SIDE BAND ASSHOLE. BUY A TWO TONE AUDIO GENERATOR AND LEARN HOW TO ALIGN SIDE BAND PROPERLY.
Oh yeah, start from the beginning of the circuit calibrating an aligning all reference frequencies before to go straight to the final stage and start tuning.
Kinda like putting a bigger air cleaner on a new car to get more horse power but not retuning the rest of the engine and reprogramming the ECM.
It doesn’t work that way.
