IC4 voltages RX Pin 1 8.3 Pin 2 14.2 Pin 3 8.3 Pin 4 0 Pin 5 14.4 Pin 6 8.3 Pin 7 not there Pin 8 0 TX Pin 1 8.3 Pin 2 13.5 Pin 3 8.3 Pin 4 0 Pin 5 0 Pin 6 0 Pin 7 not there Pin 8 8.3 Does this look normal or should I replace IC4

Also noticed that TR25 and TR26 are missing.

I checked voltage at C18 and yes there is 6V positive on both receive and transmit.

changed out C18 still no transmit audio. Also changed out all the 10V and 16V caps still the same. Might just change them all out. Think I'm going to replace the CB/PA switch next.

tested IC4 this morning. Pin 8 has 8V when Mic is keyed. No voltage on pin 4 of IC4

Looking more into the 148 I see that TR25 has been removed it's not there.

thanks, yes receives fine on the channel selected. I changed out TR22 and TR23 with no change. There is barely I mean barely audio coming through the mic. Had another radio next to it on the same channel. Super super weak audio I can hear my voice barely but doesn't move the S/RF meter at all...

yeah I checked the SM C468 ok to be in there.

I found that TR23 C945 transistor has a C458 in that location.

not the mic tried multiple ones that work on my cobra 2000

Picked up this Taiwan made Cobra 148 GTL the other day. Very clean inside and hasn't been chopped up. No extra channels either. It has a issue, no audio going through when the mic is keyed up. Also the Green/Red led does not turn red when the mic is keyed up. Also no audio coming out of the PA...

thanks Mr. Loosecannon it's the weaker signals that have the not so clear audio. They sound very choppy and not smooth sounding like they should. I'll mess with it a little. It's working pretty good right now. The (NO ADMIT) sticker is still covering L2 and has never been messed with.

Got it Larry, your awesome! Thank You a ton!

ok thanks

I just checked and VR2 is almost maxed out. What is the function of VR2

thanks BC for the info. Very interesting.

Looking for a .pdf service manual for President Washington. Uniden PC-196AB Thanks

Mr. Nomad, hey I looked and looked and I just can't find C605. The PCB is a PC-196AB Uniden. Spent over 20 minutes and couldn't locate that C605 Cap. Help please.

Thank you Mr. Nomad

Hello all. Just picked up a super clean President Washington manufactured in Japan in late 1977. I friend gave it to me for free. Only issue I'm seeing with it is when on SSB and the NB is pushed in signals sound slightly garbled and when the NB is off the SSB signals sounds good and clean...
