What bothers me is they make exemptions. I really don't care what your job is, we are all Human beings. If operating a radio with a microphone is going to distract me while I'm driving, a police officer will be just as distracted. If they want to try and way "he has been trained to use his...

I think all of the DIN sized radios will have a front mic because they are designed to be mounted in dash if the user so chooses. I think your best option would probably be to look at the Lincoln II. That seems to tick all of the boxes you are looking for.

My first thought would be the channel selector? Maybe?

The board number PB208AD tells the tale... it's a Grant XL with a 148F faceplate on it.

What schematic is that? That's no DX350 that I've ever seen. This is a standard DX350 with 2 2SC2879 transistors.

I miss my 1970 Olds 442.

There are adjustments on the board to calibrate the multipliers. I have compared a 50 watt multiplied and a 500 watt next to each other and they are spot on with each other. You just need to make sure the calibration is correct. Also there is the possibility of one of the slugs being out of...

Any scans I can find of the schematic for the radio look like they were scanned with a potato. That makes it very difficult to figure out the wiring. Also I don't know if the D104 is compatible with this radio.

He already did that.

It should be 12k.

I have 5 or 6 575s. The only mobile mic I'll use. I even have a brand new one that has never been wired.

I don't know that I would want that on the factory heat sink. It really wasn't designed to dissipate that much heat. It's an interesting concept to deal with a discontinued part, but I just don't know.

OK, that switch in the underside is for relay/electronic switching. It the mic was previously wired for an older relay switched radio, that will need to be flipped. This is the wiring for a cobra from an old Turner mic wiring sheet. Look at the 3rd column and you'll see the 25 or the next one...

Since it's missing, you KNOW it's been messed with. I'd say it needs a complete alignment. L45, L46, L47, L48, and L38 are together in the transmitter alignment section. My guess is they all need to be looked at. Here is the service manual...
