Here is a rust control product I bought years ago at my local Do It Center by the gallon with Phosphoric acid and there is no mixing. Just used some a couple days ago on my bead rolling kit. Can't know what the price is these days but I'm sure It can be had cheaper than MFG suggested price. But...

So did I miss something ? What actually is the Blaster ? All I can think of is PB Blaster in a spray can, I never seen it in bulk.

LOL you got that right I managed to squeeze out 1 contact from the radio room yesterday and that wasn't even a good one. Than my neighbor come home early. Probably this weekend when he's home DX will be banging in. Talk about frustration ! LOL I feel a road trip to the mountain hunting camp...

I thought only guys like me done that ! LOL All joking aside I'm glad you figured it out. My biggest worry is doing something I can't fix and end up with more junk for the heap. That gets expensive and lord knows I don't have money to spare. LOL

Glad I discovered this post,as it sounds similar to a a problem I'm having with my 2ea. Q6Pros in a mobile application. Sounds like I should have waited until the bugs were worked out to purchase these radios. Dummy Me ! LOL

I've used that edit window many time because am a terrible typist ( 1 Finger ) and noticed how the opportunity disappears after a while. The question is can Edit be made permanent? I'm sure there is angles I'm not seeing.

They are predicting thunder storms in my neck of the woods so my antenna will be disconnected. And I wanted to take a ride up country to check out a radio in my Expedition but the dirt road will be muddy so I guess that will be out also. Guess I'll be forced to be Little Susie Homemaker today...

Most of my problem is I have so many projects going on it is too easy to put off the ones I'm not real comfortable with. Most of the time when you get into it you end up wondering why you put it off so long. LOL

Been trying to get the right antenna on my Ford Expedition and It ended up being my K-40 with almost a Flat Line SWR across the 11 meter band. I made a 720 air mile contact to Atlanta Georgia running barefoot with my McKinley on 38 LSB and conditions were lousy. Now I have to throw my Q6 Pro...

Don't feel alone when it come to firmware updates, I might mess my pants also for fear of messing up a expensive radio. I bought the cable and downloaded the updates for my 2 Q6 Pros firmware, but have to work up the courage. LOL

Same around hear!

Radio was crap yesterday and looks like that today. Thank god for projects. Looks like next week is antenna adjust time along with Cobalt body work time. Never a dull moment around here.

I just turned the radio on again and heard static. LOL

I checked that DX site this morning and it said 10-12 meter was suppose to be good and I haven't heard crap when ever I tried to listen so I shut it off & taken care of business.

So it sounds like it can be done and the method to the madness is a matter of personal choice. My Cobra 2000 has extra channels with 2 repurposed front switches which I'm not crazy about so I might consider more options. If I was going to invest the time and money in to a radio I would figure it...

Did anybody ever hear of someone putting extra channels in a SuperBase ?

But is it possible for a experienced technician to restore this radio ? Of coarse at a premium !

I managed to squeeze out a couple Florida contacts on the 2547 around mid day But man on the run !

I bought a GE Super Base 2-3 years ago and love that radio. It receives well and sounds good and is still on frequency transmitting. I like the 2 antenna hook ups on the back so you can run a vertical or a beam. It is the 1 radio I would consider paying for a complete over-haul if I had to & it...
