This is what I use now. My frequency counter still works... . I think lol

Thanks Rob, nice and clear. 10-4 I'm a dumbass

Then hook it to the sampler t????? Thanks

Maybe I wasn't clear enough. I have the radio going to a meter then dummy load. Then I hook hook frequency counter to pin on so239 inside radio. Is that no good?

Videos I've seen people hook the frequency counter aligator clip right to the pin on the inside of the radio?? No..... so where are you supose to connect it??

So hook the frequency counter to a rf sampler???

So I have a fluke 1910 frequency counter. I think it's a 1910..... anyway the way I have been checking frequency it to connect one alligator clip to ground and the other to the pin on the so-239 connector. So my question is how many watts can a fluke frequency counter handle? Like a scope you...

So I got this vintage VU meter that was from an estate sale. I popped it open and it looked like somebody did some work to it. I'm curious to ya'll thoughts and opinions.VU meter with the front 1/4 jack are hard to find and I'm curious to a good way to test one. I'm thinking of hooking up a 8...

Alright thanks for all the good info!

10-4 thanks mike

Google is my first choice and when I don't comprehendo I ask all my friends on worldwidedx. That's what forums are for right?

"The next step is to make sure that your test equip. is calibrated correctly. you can have this done somewhere, or you can build a frequency standard for very cheap. the most expensive part is the crystal, and they are like $10. i'll try to draw up a diagram, but for now, do the search thing for...

Hmm well it doesn't make much sense to buy a peice of equitment that costs more to check then the peice of equitment you are trying to check. I just heard you buy a 10 dollar crystal and make a frequency standard to make sure your counter is on target. No? gotta buy a 500 dollar standard?

Anybody have a simple schematic for a frequency standard to check to make sure your frequency counter is dead nuts? Thanks

10-4 thanks. Yeah those cans are probably damaged then. I can still get them to peak out though.

Yeah thanks, I'm new to all this so I like to see what happens when I go all the way direction or another. What do you use to align a receiver?

Just those three cans are a big flathead slug that never bottom out like the other cans l2-l6. I'm using a signal generator and a scope...

So I plugged the three prong power cord into a cheater plug with 2 prongs into the outlet and no more problems. Or I could just cut the ground wire inside the power supply. My conclusion is that there is a serious design flaw and the manufacturer is not aware of it yet. I will be standing by for...

What is the deal with L7, L8 and L9? They never end when you turn them and the are very touchy...

Anyone know the exact location of pin 6 on IC2? I'm pretty sure cobra used different ic chips and I'm not sure if I'm looking at the right schematics. I'm working on a newer cobra 29 ltd switch. Thanks!
