    New Cobra 148GTL China???

    this 10ohm opening up to 100 and the radio still working. Would this make the radio go off freq ? make it sound like it's stuck between channel 1 and 2 maybe ? I've had 3 brand new ones that let smoke out from behind the channel selector somewhere, looked like a blue wire burning. Thank...

    RCI-2990 help :(

    new Cobra 148gtl

    I have a new 148 here, it's been working great, had it dead keying 2 watts or so swinging to 6 or so. Accidently put 17 or so volts to it. Now, it's stuck at 10 watt dead key, and No modulation at all. VR10 makes no change what so ever to the dead key. What could make it do this ?
