    President McKinley

    I only use 1 channel below the 40 which is AM lower 19 26.735 and for SSB we use 27.565 and 27.415 and 27.425. those are the only ones a group of us ever use. at least so far that is all we have used in the past 15 years. so figure they will never change after that long.

    President McKinley

I got an Anytone AT6666 which is about the same as the president line and I...

    as old as the radio is you may have a few caps bad causing your problem. some times bad caps are hard to find if it is more than one.

    Cobra 29 LX blowing fuses
