I try to avoid customers who bring you a piece of junk like this amp, and expect you to fix it on the cheap. - J.J. 399

I have been using a solution called GALVAPREP to treat any bare iron or steel. I can't remember the brand, but will snap a pic when I'm in my shop today. Like so many products (i.e. WESLEY's Bleeche Wite) may not be available now because of EPA regs. - J.J. 399

I bought a Cobra 139XLR new in 1978, and ran it for years.The best receive (with mods), loud clear audio, and super expandibility. Best of all, the Service manual w/ schematic made repairs and mods easy. I've always said it was the best type-accepted CB radio ever made. However, after reading...

This thread is a real trip down memory lane. So many members who were active when this thread started(2011), but never hear from them these days. LowBoy, Psycho, Jazzsinger, Toll_Free, TonyV225, Switchkit, and others. I miss them all. J.J. 399

I studied the enlargements of your pictures, and I THINK I know where the wires go First, I think the blue wire goes here And the yellow wire goes here. I'm not 100% certain, but maybe 90%. Pretty sure about the blue wire, yellow maybe. My best shot. Good luck. 73. J.J. 399

The DX Gods were against me today. I was planning on hitting the shack about noon when an midday thunderstorm rolled in. It finally blew over, but during the storm a lightning hit took out a fuse on a main line feeding our area. So no power. Being Sunday, they didn't get it up and running until...

It's all good, amigo. Easier to go down in voltage then try to go up. 73

MUCHAS GRACIAS , Superlid & Crawdad Pretty certain it's 12vdc. I asked AI before posting this thread, and the reply said it didn't know. So I'll go with SL's real world measurement. Thanks for bailing me out guys. 73. - J.J. 399

What is the voltage on Pin 6 of the Anytone AT6666PRO's mike jack used to power the stock electret mike ?? I'm in the Med away from the farm and can't measure it myself right now. The AT6666PRO's user manual just says +DC. Anyone measure this voltage ?? Help. . . please. I'm buying some parts...

The thunder and the rain pounding down woke me up at 4:30 this morning. So hopefully we'll get the rain out of the way early today and I can enjoy some radioin' later on. Hopefully. My QT80 was delivered yesterday, so I'll get it on the bench and start installing the mods and the fans I have...

Early afternoon was mostly quiet, but around 4 o'clock things really picked up. Logged 18 contacts between 4 and 6:30. PA (3), GA (4), NY (2), TX (4), KY, MS, AL and LA (2). Divided evenly between 36 and 37 LSB. CQed for WDX stations but no takers. Manana ?? - J.J. 399

My 8-pill compettition amp does 1500 watts @13.8 VDC. It will do more, but why push it. If I can't get out with 1.5KW, I'd better quit.

Rain her again today J.J. 399-

Conditions look good from S. America to the eastern seaboard USA this morning. Gonna head down to the shack now (12 noon) and give it a try. 37 lsb. J.J. 399
