    Mic Upgrade for a President Mckinley

    Not on USA McKinley only on the EU version.

    WTB President McKinley USA or EU

    I'm not selling the one I bought - simply letting you know if you really want one you can get one from Nevada Radio UK. I looked for a used one for a while and couldn't find one and missed the posting here. They are VERY hard to find used in the USA.

    WTB President McKinley USA or EU

    I ended up buying one from Nevada UK - they had a sale and with shipping it was under $325. Pretty cool radio. More solid on the controls than the USA version.

    Sirio SD27 Dipole Antenna

    How do you plan to isolate the elements from the boom? I have a spare sirio dipole here.

    K-Po NM-532 Power Mic

    The weird thing is they are $70 in the US and $40 (33 pounds) in UK. The build quality reminds me of a 452, definitely not a $70 microphone.

    Troys DDS VFO in Uniden 980

    He replaced the display so you’ll lose some display functions from the stock display like NB, mic gain, RF gain etc which would be the downside but you’ll gain freeband and could use it for 10 meters etc. It will display mode on the new display. Not sure if I’d do it on a 980 but pretty cool...

    Palomar TX 400

    SSB delay built in?

    Base New Imax wont tune 11m....this sucks

    To add to that info - without the extender section it’s still usable for 11M but SWR will likely be in the 1.7-2.0 range and more optimized for 10M.

    Wanted: President McKinley EU

    I was too late on those and they had sold. Hoping one of those buyers might be ready to pass it on :)

    President Richard Export (Cobra 148GTL DX) - need a tuning can

    Yeah an LB137 out of a TRC453 (L15) or PB042 President Jackson (L22/L23), PC999 President Grant (L29/L38), Courier Galaxy IV (T16/T17) would work too :)

    President Richard Export (Cobra 148GTL DX) - need a tuning can

    Talked with kens electronics and unfortunately he didn’t have the part. Uniden PB-010 board - coil LB137 92187. (L37) location. If anyone has one let me know! Thank you

    Base New Imax wont tune 11m....this sucks

    The extension goes between the top section and section below it.

    Base New Imax wont tune 11m....this sucks

    Yes it would make sense for them to do that, no idea why they haven’t made it available. I was sent one of the extensions from the factory to test and they work as expected.

    Base New Imax wont tune 11m....this sucks

    Just to be clear, the max 2000 aka imax 2000 is still made at the same factory it’s been made at for the last 20 years regardless of who now owns the company/rights. Yes they messed with the length and now you need the extension piece to get a low SWR on the cb band but build quality etc should...

    President Richard Export (Cobra 148GTL DX) - need a tuning can

    Guessing others have been in the radio before as some of the settings didn’t seem stock. Going to talk with Kens Electronics tomorrow about parts. Really cool radio, does take a couple of minutes to warm up on freq from power on but has good audio on AM and SSB with stock microphone.

    President Richard Export (Cobra 148GTL DX) - need a tuning can

    Yeah it's the PB 010 and the coil is L37 - but I saw it referenced on one DX alignment as L26 and elsewhere as L37. I thought maybe the L26 was the last 148 DX model but that the part would be the same. No service manual for the Richard as far as I can tell so was having to guess based on the...

    President Richard Export (Cobra 148GTL DX) - need a tuning can

    Can’t find a parts list but would guess it has to be out of a 148 gtl DX, Richard, or Superstar 360FM. Thank you though.
