Does anybody know where i can find clear instructions on installing a proper variable power control on a cobra 148gtl?
I found one on here but the instructions are kinda scattered and a difficult to understand.

The way I have done it is to get a potentiometer the same value as the one on the board, remove the factory one and then run three wires to the board. Never had an issue doing it like that.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
