I've had about every magnum That's come out ,so I thought I'd give this 6-175 a try,but I'm not having much luck.
The 1st one I ordered last about 35min. Everybody said it said great and had it on the meter showing about 240 watt pep..........thought that was a little hot,but 35 min later sounded like a relay started chattering and unkeyed.....now only 17 watts, so I made phone call and told what happen,said box it back up and send it back.Had the 2nd one at the house before before 1st one even made it back to them(good service).
Well ,I did have time to hook it up before I went out on the road, so I just layed it in the radio room.
Well made it back about 3 1/2 to 4 weeks later hook it up and this one is showing around 165w to 175watts.......I can deal with that,but the freq is off and not just on the freq display,but also on the external meter(example 27.1854 with The control all the way couterclockwise and turn it back to mid-way or center it show 27.1863 and all the clockwise is 27.1872).
Ok,went to cbtricks and found the trim pot to adjust the internal freq display, but that doesn't adjust the freq it self.
My ?,after all that, is there a simple turn of a can or pot that well fix it?
Don't really want to ship it back,because the last 5 or 6 things I've order I've had to do that and the shipping and handling about to make me go crazy(at 15.00 to 30.00 a pop) every time!
