All Euro sellers I found want well over $200 for one BEFORE shipping. Add $50 for that.
That adds up to nope nope nope too expensive.
Anyone know of a North American source under $200?
Settings for the AM/FM USA Randy II. 310 for 4 Watts Power High, 344 for 1 Watt Power Low, AM Pow modulation L/H both 77, FM Mod 510. Using a digital meter. These are the best numbers for that radio. If you don't know how to change these values look at the video on YouTube.
Going to powder coat semi gloss black the base and head of my lollypop. The local coating place wants $120. Anyone know a better place? Needs to be tough
Thanks!
Hi. Would anyone please look in their notes to see what the mic cable colors to pins info is for a 5 pin 2000 GTL to a Shure 526T II mic. Purdy please.
I've looked around but found no mention.
Thanks.
Hello gent's,
The clock/counter on my 2000 is dead. No workey no mo. Toast. History. Joined the choir invisible. Its a goner.
So now I have to either fix or replace it. It's easy to remove and replace so thats not an issue. The issue is price, and trust. I refuse to pay more than the radio...
Today I finally took the Vector 4K out of it's box. Skip is coming. As I assembled it I quickly noticed I was missing something. Somewhere since this thing was made back in the deep past somebody misplaced 3 of the 4 black plastic standoff arms that hold the ring in place. No bueno!
So, anyone...
I have a couple of Channel King boards. One in a 980 and one in my 2000. A few years ago Mark said he planned to do some kind of update to the project. A V3.0 board perhaps? But that was before Mike did whatever it was he did and things went quiet.
Anyone know more? Thanks.
I have a tough time seeing the meter on my base. I have been thinking of painting the pointer some bright fluorescent color. Safety green or orange.
Has anyone else tried this? Did it help??
Thanks all.
Howdy. I asked this on FB but thought I'd try here where the experts dwell.
When looking in my newish Cobra 135 XLR I noticed a disconnected wire in the power supply area. This radio has a very dim display so I hoped that was the cause. Nope. Grounded it with no improvement. The radio is...
Has anyone ever seen a replacement mic element for a Turner JM+2/U mobile mic? My stock element has a big hole in it. The rest of the mic is in great shape and it would be a shame to toss it.
Thanks!
Howdy all. I was given a Cobra 148 that is missing a few parts, such as the famous TR--24 transistor. Can anyone give me a part number for a TR-24 so I can order a replacement?
I love the shocked look on smack talking kids faces as my friends and I get out of our car, walk to his door, knock, and ask his mommy if we can see our "radio friend", her son on the porch. They almost always let mommy deal with the big mean men. BTW we ask "Mommy" her name and for a phone...
Why give eBay all the profits?
I have a DX 2547 in good shape. Works fine. Has the often missing front legs. Not monkeyed with. Has a couple shallow scratches on the top cover. Brand new front feet.
Looking to trade for test equipment. Signal gen, freq counter, scope. I know exactly what...
Had a friend hand me an old 148 GTL and say here keep it. Okay, I did. I should have wondered why somebody would give away a good radio. Today I found out why. Blown speaker. External speaker jack works fine.
So where is a good source for a 148 GTL speaker? There's none on eBay. A bit better...
