Hi

This radio I've not had very long. This Mk V was John Nugents own personal radio back in 1996.

It is featured on RIGPIX,YOUTUBE VIDEOS & VARIOUS WEBSITES.

I have another which has a grren display also. 280 Mk V radios were created; only 30 are known to exsist by ownership. The rest are missing.

The radio is a modified Cobra 148 gtl-dx that works really good on tx/rx & all scan functions.

Heres a link to this radio work:

Hope this helps.

hmmmm...when I first saw this I responded "Brilliant !!!" because I've been a fan of John Nugents work for a very long time...(my post disappeared ???!!!???)
Anyway welcome to the forum 26AC148. My question to you is do you work at the cobraworxshop ? The folks there are rumored to have the template and all the parts to build/repair the MK V. I own a 148GTL-DX with the 145106 and PB-010B which is what John started with I think, correct me if I'm off base. The Mk V is definitely King Snake.

EMAILS

They also don't bother answering Emails....

EMAILS CAN GET LOST OR BE CLASSED AS SPAM SO THEY MAY NEVER ARRIVE TO THE RECIPIENT AS DELIVERED

COBRAWORXSHOPZ DEAL WITH 100s OF EMAILS EACH WEEK,THERE A SMALL TEAM TO DEAL WITH ALL THE EMAILS & PHONE CALLS EACH DAY

IF YOU SEND THEM EMAIL & YOU HAVE NO REPLY SEND IT AGAIN UNTIL YOU DO SO OR CALL THEM

COBRAWORXSHOPZ IN MY OPINION ARE THE BEST AROUND BY FAR
