I just recently picked up an old Cobra 139 23 channel base. The thing is in pristine shape. So looking to make it better, I was searching the web and found a 15 Khz voice lock mod. Seems all I have to do is add a cap and max out a pot on the bottom of the main board.

Would this allow my to drop in between channels? Also is it worth the time?

Sorry for the questions. I'm not very technical when it comes to modifying radios and using in between channels.

Thanks
 

I wouldn't say it's a must, my mobile clarifier is still locked, and so is my president madison. and it's certainly something you don't do unless you have the equipment to align it again when your done.

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare

    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned
