Hello everyone,
I figured I would post this issue, as I am sure there are a few of us with this model radio. When I acquired the radio, it barely put out any power. It turned out to be a bad final. The radio works well overall now, aside from the receive having an issue. There is a station around 14 miles away, and if he is on channel 20 and I am on 19, I get bleedover. This is not like what most of us get as as far as splatter etc. I can almost hear him crystal clear as if he is on the same channel, but obviously quieter than he would be if I click over to ch 20. But, as stated he is not on the same channel with me. It is almost as if the radio is receiving multiple channels at once in a sense. I hook up another 138xlr that I have and I do not have the issue. Just figured I would ask if anyone had a similar experience.
Tony
