I picked up a Robyn sb505d for about 50 bucks, I can’t find much info on them. I figured it was about the same thing as a cobra 140gtl, it has a pc-385 board in like an old silver face McKinley, 140 gtl etc. This one has a crystal channel kit in it that I plan on removing. Has anyone ever seen...

I take this to mean that, connect the antenna to the antenna spot on the tuner, then go from radio spot on tuner to the main antenna spot on the mfj 1026. Then go from radio spot on mfj 1026 to the connector on the back of the radio? I just don’t want to fry this thing because I don’t have the...

What is the best way to center up the clarifier at 12 o’clock on a uniden 980? Mine is the old version made in 2014. I’ve always had to have the clarifier at the 11 o’clock position to hear people on frequency. The radio was transmitting on 27.383.02 MHz on 38lsb which is to far off frequency...

For the last 4 months this has been my setup, three sections of Lowe’s chain link fence top rail buried two feet in the ground with about six 80lb bags of quick Crete, the bottom section is bracketed to the shed in the back yard. The Antron is about 30 ft to the base. If using rg213 with an ugly...

I bought this 1978 cobra 142 gtl on shop goodwill for $65.00 shipped to my door. It was listed as for parts not working all the top cover screws are missing. The ad stated that the unit does not power on. I think they just plugged it into the wall with it switched to dc. The radio works, it...

i just saw my neighbor in the back yard with a flash light... and sure enough as soon as they turned that noisy ass pump back on my receive noise went way up from s1 to s5 is there anything I can do to filter it out, or is there anything I can install on it to make it quite I do hold a general...

I recently picked up a 1990 model cobra 29 Ltd for very cheap, I’m not much of an Am’er, but I thought what the heck I’ll try out one of these Philippines cobra 29’s... it is dirty looks like it has sat up for years etc, in poor to fair cosmetic condition. So I pull of the covers, spend 15 mins...

im plugged my uniden 980 and my anytone 5555n both into it before I turned it off... I knew something was wrong because neither radio had any receive. I don’t think it hurt them... but what are some of the things that it could fry if you plug a radio into 24volts for about 20 seconds?

Also at this time I can’t seem to find...
