I will do that, thank you. Lee

I have a S3 that seems to be very noisy on receive, and I can not tell if the CB freqs are true, no freq counter. I am not sure if the receive is so bad that I can't get any signal through, this thing has awesome audio coming through the talk back and watts coming out into my dummy load. Any...

OK, that makes sense, thanks.

That dual final 2950 should drive an RFX 150 just fine. However their documentation says that SSB will be effected in a negative way, at least that is what the RFX75 says.

I found this mod that is supposed to make the AGC switchable fast or slow. What does that do and why would it be wanted switchable like that? Thanks Lee

OK, thanks Rob, I will check that. Lee

Does anyone have a link to the mods for the Dell PowerEdge power supply? I just got one off ebay for $16 shipped, been searching all afternoon but no luck yet. Thanks Lee

Still working on this one, almost done un hacking it, now I have a DK of up to 20 watts, no modulation on AM, maybe 2 watts modulation SSB, Is this most likely that IC4 MB3756 that is listed in the Cobra service bulletin, along with the diode change? This is a 1994 model. I found an extra...

I want to try a clarifier mod that requires the replacement of D52 which is listed as a KB262, I have used a couple different cross reference numbers with no luck. The new 148 lists that as a regular 4148 diode, can i just use this one, does anyone know of a supplier for the KB262? Thanks Lee

Thanks Robb, btw what do you think of this mod, will it work along with what you posted? Thanks Lee 1. Carrier Adjustment: VR10. If lower carrier is desired, change R196 near VR-10. Try about 270 ohms. 2. Change R114 to a 10K, and C46 to a .2 monolithic, this will widen up the audio on...

Thanks for the confirmation. Looking at Justin's mod, after I get it back closer to stock, replace components etc. Just looking for the "awesome" audio, not needing much for power mods as I have a TS350 to go with it. I saw a page where a guy suggested replacing the 1588 diodes with 4148s...

I have a 1991 148GTL that I found a couple leaky electrolytic capaitors so I am going to change them all. Question is, is there any downside to using higher quality, lower tollerance, audio grade caps, will this cause the radio to act funny. I understand a full alignment will be required after...

Transformer specs Old thread, good info. Does anyone know the specs on the transformer you are using for this mod? Thanks Lee
