    Cobra 138XLR question.

    Where is a good point to add frequency counter to read the constant transmit/receive frequency. Would TP1 be a good point through a .001 cap. Using 1 of the 6 digit Chinese counters from ebay. thanks

    Galaxy N channel kit for the RS 465 and Cobra 146gtl

    NZ8N So your saying pullup the c94 leg on pin 10 and put a wire on the leg of c87 and the other on pin 10. C87 i think put a 100pf cap across c87 to broaden the range is this correct.
