Hooked to my truck to test. Didn't power up and there was some slight sparking around the clamps at the battery so I immediately stopped for further investigation. 2000 continuous 4000 surge

I can take pics later. Just got the thing yesterday. Will probably pop the cover today. Thanks for all the tips. Would be nice if I could get 'er fixed. Likely a $200 unit for the size

Hi Group, Was given a China Chicago Tool 2000/4000W inverter today that doesn't work. Can anyone suggest common failures for these things .... some places to start looking? Haven't been inside it. I'll look for blown protection diodes on the input in case it got hooked up backwards. Any other...

OP is talking about mobiles

Best wishes Selling it friend. More than anything it's not a high-want item as it's just a low power cb. People want other radios right now. Medium and High Power Exports with all the frequencies and extra goodies built-in. So it's not the economy either. The economy is frigging booming right...

Just another example of People Like What They Like and it's all good. I had one back in the day w/ Chipswitch and all the mods in the universe. Cute little radios but today they're so old and only 25 watts unless you do a little something to squeeze a few more watts out of them. I don't see the...

Pliers with Rubber Grips on the jaws

Looks really good. 80W. Who has the best price on this now?

Can't you check it out yourself on the air? Don't have a power meter?

Hi guy ..... just wondering something about that rig .... states PC Programmable ..... can you open up the TX inside this radio or does that require computer programming?

Friend has a remote disk drive. Going to ask if he can bring it and come back and try again using the supplied disk. Radio came with Software disk & cable. I am guessing that his disk drive has a spindel-holder in the middle that holds disks in place so that the supplied mini-disk will work in a...

Did Both - no effect

Just seeing if anyone has any ideas. Is new TH 9800 (not plus) apparently a 2023 model. Very experienced friend came over to help. IT Engineer he is. Very experienced programming all kinds of radios including Motorolas etc .... Had a PC laptop factory Windows 10. Downloaded SW at Raddiodity...

Is the Header saying that it also Receives 136~174 ? ..... but is 10~11 TX only ?

Maybe I'm missing it in the manual. Is there a Function for Repeater Reverse? To Monitor for direct signal reception on a Repeater Input? Not seeing that on my 9800 yet.

What's crazier is that they're coming with those little 3.5" mini disks ..... like who has a minidisk drive on their desk? Why they couldn't supply a full sized disk ..... who knows? Cheapness?

Thanks Blackcat. I am in a rural area also and never get any intermod from anything. I only went with the 9800 as they were the same price as the dual band 7900.

I did a search and didn't see any recent posts on this one so I thought I'd start a fresh one. By choice I'd gone all my ham life since 1993 having only 2 meters as a base or mobile. I figured I'd have all the talking I wanted to do on 2M and dual band radios cost twice as much and the antennas...

Not only is 9 dead but almost all the other ones in my area are too. And I'm out in the country ..... prime CB territory. Sad to see it failing like this. We had a robust group talking through the 2010's but especially since 2020 the operators are dropping like flies. Older guys dying. People...
