    Cobra 2000 GTL

    Yeah I was wandering why would my 2000 meter lights dim when I key down the mike? Also I am only seeing 1 1/2 watt dk swinging to around 6 watts on AM, also to around 6 watt on SSB seems awfully low to me. Tried to set the bias on the driver/final with no luck the pots seem to make no difference...

    Yes I replaced all the rectifier diodes for that matter everything but the resistors have been replaced on the HV Power Supply board. Still has a hum in the audio transmitted could it be the Ohmite: Z-14 Axial Leaded High Frequency Inductor?

    Got all the new caps in powers up fine but relay won’t click when I key the mike, if I manually push down on the relay it while having the radio keyed it transmits rf on the watt meter what could be causing this? I also replaced the doides and the two transistors on the hv power supply board.

    Yeah I hooked the wire where you said and it just blows fuses. I checked for continuity (blue arrow in picture) and in fact had it at these points don’t know why but the amp does work with the wire unhooked I’m just confused about the three capacitors !!!!

    The only way to see the other side of the board is to remove it the grey wire I’m asking about is on the same trace as the yellow one on the bottom right of the board and the yellow wire I believe goes to a relay
