Got a good buy on this radio (or so I thought). I knew the final had a bad rep, and sure enough, I received the radio, and no tx. Pulled the final, and it tested bad. I sourced two replacements, threw one in, and I had tx. 3 swingin to around 6 on a.m. everything seemed fine. Flipped to lsb...

Does the new cobra 29 lx's ('14-'15) use the same alignment procedure, test points, etc..as the older ltd's? per cbtricks. I havent messed with the newer models much, and just wanted to confirm before i get started.

I made my own dummy load a while back, via instuctions on k4eaa's website http://www.k4eaa.com/dummy.html I recently added binding post for power measurement, and it works great, but I had a couple questions for the more informed. I used 2 1n4148 diodes in series as he did in the pics. But he...

I've been working on bonding my pickup. I had enough 3/4" flat copper braid to bond all the body parts, bed to cab to hood to fenders and so on. Now I'm out of braid and need to bond the body to frame. Would aluminum roof flashing work for this? I was going to cut 2-3" wide strips, and use...

A friend of mine got this midland radio at a yard sale for like 10 bucks. Nice lookin little radio, came with stock mic, mounting bracket, and power cord. Good deal right? He gave it to me to give a once over. After a little tweaking, i got 4 watt dead key swinging to around 15 or so with the...

So, a pal of mine gave me a cobra 148f. This thing is rough, looks like its been kicked around in the floor board of a dump truck (and probably has been:confused:). The radio powers on and receives, but the final is toast due to a broken antenna incident. My plan is to completely restore this...

Restoring a cobra 148f, need a chrome bezel in descent shape. Doesnt have to be new, light scratches are ok. Nothing broken or chrome peeling off, I already have one like that. Would be interested in parts radios as well with a good bezel. Thanks
