    Cobra 148 gtl SSB Audio Flutter Malaysia Model

    Try this. Worked for me in the past on TX ssb warble. Not sure if you have tx or rx warble but you should do this anyway.

    Looking to replace the stick on fake speaker grill on my RCA Radio Phone Model CRM-P2B-5 CB

    If you want something that will look good but isn't exactly original I would hammer it flat using a block of wood and a hammer. Then find some vintage cloth speaker grill cloth that you like the look of. Use some 3m spray adhesive and cover it with cloth...

    Heath SB-220 Squeals on AM

    You are probably hearing your voice resonating through them. Replace them and report back.

    Heath SB-220 Squeals on AM

    Check the anode plate cap on top of the tubes. Make sure both the screws are tight. Also look at the parasitic resistors coming off the top of tube and see if they are burnt or cracked. BUT BE SURE ITS UNPLUGGED AND DISCHARGED BEFORE DOING SO.

    On SSB with strong tube full drive 700 to 950 out depending on band.

    Solarcon MAX OPTIMZER The Ultimate 10-11 Meter Base Antenna

    All this I need a flat swr stuff is really nonsense. 1.5 is perfect. 1.5 to 1.2 will make absolutely no difference to you or the person hearing you. Only difference is the swr meter you are looking at gives you a warm cuddly feeling.

    GM noise

    Unplug the fuse for the factory radio. You will see noise dissappear. Had a new Sierra a few years back and it was the screen on the radio. Even with radio turned off I got the noise. As soon as key was turned to the on position. Even with truck not running.

    KENWOOD TS 830S

    No AM. But one of the best SSB radios. I do have a link to a small board you can install to get AM. But I wouldn't. If you want AM get an AM rig. https://casarain.com/products/am-transmit-adaptor-for-kenwood-hybrids
