    I'm just experimenting with it. I know its not the "proper" way but its a start. And the VR on the 68 was far from wide open. One 78 will DK around 2-3 on Ch.1 but 36 through 40 and it has Hell trying. Actually have a video of it doing this. They were sent in for exactly that, a tune-up and...

    Converting Uniden instant 9 switch to 19 instead.

    After pulling a 25 LTD classic apart, They manipulate the selector switch to do it and leave the PLL alone. So in theory, You could make any channel instant on. Still playing with it and reading the schematics. Sometimes just experimenting with stuff yields the best answers. Schematics can only...

    So much for email notifications, Lol. Trying like Hell to figure this out because I have a 68 that had its diode cut for years. It would do 14-ish all the time. Put limiter back in as a test and AMC would kick is as it should and brought it down to around 7-8. Using a tone, I adjusted the VR...

    Converting Uniden instant 9 switch to 19 instead.

    Supposedly, The 29 and 25 are identical to the 68 and 78 series. And even claiming to use the same PLL according to that site. But how would I find out what sister radio these have that has instant 19 without staring through schematics for hours and hours....

    So lately I've been having some questions come up after dealing with what I have on some rigs and wondered, If it is possible, Would it work, Should I do it, Etc... First is, If they (OEMs) wax a couple of the cans to keep their tune, Could you possibly wax all of them instead and put some...

    Will do. Fighting a serious issue with a radio and a tech currently.

    Converting Uniden instant 9 switch to 19 instead.

    Oh damn it is. Was clear when I uploaded it. And you are correct, Thats what it says. Sorry about the serial tag being upside-down, Lol.

    Compromise definitively. I'd sacrifice a little efficiency for omni directionality. And even with a hatch mount,Would still need to bond it to the body and all that.

    To my knowledge, At least 80% or more of her signal would go forward.

    Thought about that but then she'd be directional as hell.

    Lol, I know where the PLL is. Let me crack one open and I'll look real quick since I have one here next to me.

    I don't have any other option. Its either bond through the rack to keep lines short to the roof or mag mount. Its a 2012 Escape. You'll see what I'm talking about then.

    Right. Which is what this rack mounts to. And its large and flat for the most part.
