Well, it's transmitting but, on channel 20 I can't get it to pop any higher than 27.185. I keep finding jumpers across stuff. One even jumps off of the Xtal. If somebody comes up with a solder-side photo, it'll be a life-saver. I don't think most of these jumps on the bottom are supposed to be...

Well, I bought a 1K, 10K, and a 100K trimmer pot. I'm gonna shoot for the middle and use the 10K.

Thanks for the responses Sonoma. 2SC2166driver/ 2SC1969 Final. Like I said, it looks like they tried to make some BS Variable with that pot and the RF Gain Control!

Is VR10, the AM power pot, a 1K, 10K, or 100Kohm pot?

Well, somewhat of a progress report. The six-position switch is gone, the cut trace(He cut the wrong trace) is repaired, A nice two switch channel job, using the Hi/Low and bright/dim switches on the front were modified and wired in, The Clarifier is corrected, guy didn't even remove R44 and...

Guys, I need a photo of the solder-side of an unmolested Grant XL with a PB208AD board. Closeups of the entire board would be great!

I won't even get into the fact that the tech replaced the five-pin mic plug for a four-pin Cobra. Evidently, this was a 'Truckstop Tech'.

First, the good! The 2000GTL is here and trouble free!It's been tuned(Nothing cut), two-switch channelling, unlocked Clarifier. Everything was well-done and easily recognizable Wired a Turner +3 to it and ran some SSB today. Did very well. Nothing to do and nothing will be done on this radio...

Nope.

The Cap Kit is coming by the 4th. I have a feeling one or more of the Electrolytics are bad.

Did that sir, had to replace the pot. Still no output.

That's a good way to Mod.kit the 25/66 and the 76/29 radios. I use a 470uf at 25V and usually a 30 ohm, 1/4watt resister. gives a 1-1/2watt DK and a ton of superfast modulation. Just breath hard into the mic and it slams a modulation needle. Drive low DK boxes like no tomorrow. Don't forget to...

You're right, it was the +2 that were blue.

Well, I had a great deal fall nto my lap yesterday. Had to wait til I was sure to say anything. I am now awaiting Delivery of a Cobra 2000GTL with twin speakers that I got for a very shameless price. From what the guy says, the only mod is channels. Don't know yet if it's switched over to the...

The SSKs were all a blue color, the +3B was the only Black Turner.

Captain, see the three sets of switches under the Key? That's what I was referring to. The gray +3 only has two sets there.

Oh, little secret, the four wire +3 mic cord has to be changed for five pin mics like the cobra and Uniden mics. The +3 mic cord is four wire;Shield, audio Xmit, rcv. You can wire this to a five pin mic plug but a lot of times you'll get keyoff squeel. The trick is to replace the existing cord...
