Anyone know where to look on a Cobra 148gtl DX+ that has No Receive, Xmit and Xmit Audio is fine, also it appears that the RX

is not switching over because the TX light is always RED and it seems to throw a carrier on SSB with out being keyed, But not on AM.

Also the RX meter shows nothing with an input signal.



It had a few mods done to it, and was missing several transistors(now replaced) Q33, Q30.

Also Q39 was in Bkwds..



Any Ideas?



Roger

    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
