Merry belated Christmas to everyone!
I've got yet another radio that has me stumped, this time, I don't believe it going to be so easy...
So, I've got a new Cobra 29 LTD Classic on the bench, just finished my IRF520 conversion and tune on it, which I have done hundreds of before,(no clipped limiter or jacked up audio mods lol).
It's making fantastic peak and average power (9w Bird average/48w PEP), nice and clean on the spectrum analyzer, with the top cover OFF...
But as soon as I put the top cover all the way ON, the power drops to around HALF of what it was doing with it taken off! I have never seen this before, ever.
Any ideas from the braniacs here? Thank you!
