cobra 148 more audio


I would not clip the mod limiter...

this was taken straight from Defpom:

1. DONT Remove TR24!

There are two methods to improve the AMC, you can change R130 (a 1.5KOhm for a 500 Ohm, it may be in a diode location close to TR26)

Or you can add a 1K resistor in series on the the middle leg of TR24, to do this just cut the track for the leg and put the resistor across the cut.
2. Change R126 (10k) to a 4.7K
3. Change R124 (10k) to a 4.7K
4. Re-tune L37 and L38 for maximum AM forward power.
 
I know of a few different ways to get more audio, other than those listed for search on the web. 148s can be audio monsters, but you won't see much in the wattage department. Nevertheless, you want to stay away from any mod that wants you to clip a limiter in this chassis radio.

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned
