Turned on the 142 the other day and the channel light started to dim followed by a cloud of smoke before it shut off. Before I open the case, does anyone want to take a stab at what I might what to look at?
A friend I worked with left and I pulled his radio out of the truck he was in. I called him up to get it back to him and he said he left it for me, says he has two more of them. My question is, there was a fuse holder on both the positive and negative power leads-don't ask me why. I left the harness in the truck as I may get around to sticking a radio back in it.
As I recall a standard Cobra 29 uses a 2 amp fuse, but what will a 29 with the RFX75 draw? As I recall the power consumption on my Magnum S-9 is 7 amps.
