update :) i finally got my fet's,,,soldered them in,,,,my 959 works like it should :lol: i want to thank everybody for all the good help and advice thanks again Clint

unfortunately i have no cb shops near here in kingman az. and from my past experience with places like sparky's, its probably a good thing i dont have anyone here---lol

right now im concerned with the fet's, i ordered a few, they are cheap. i'll replace them soon as they get here, and go from there. i also have a voyager9000 with the same problem,,seems like these newer cb's are a bunch of crap,,,,,i have some johnson messengers that work just fine and...

i just pulled both Q47 and Q49 they are both IRF 520's, so i have mosfet's now how to test them?????

ok i just pulled both q47 and q49,,,both are IRF 520's,,,,mosfet, i looked them up.....on q49 i get no readings,,,,on q47 center to right 26, center to left 26 right to left 2.............although i dont think i tested properly for a mosfet i'll look that up thanks

i have tried other mikes,,elimated that problem early on. i'm checking the finals today will keep you posted...i cant thank you enough.

i thank you so much, at least someone gave some info. as to what to check. i was just out in the man cave, had the 959 hooked up,,i have other cb's on the shelf i turned one on,,,i test on channel 3 here,,,,,keying the mike on the 959 ---no carrier at all, however the other radio did pick up...

ok here goes,,,i have this 959, when i got it from sparkies almost 2 years ago i put it on my base bench, hooked it up, tested everything,,it worked, i even talked on ssb for a minute. took my present radio,(that was working fine) out of my mobile, installed the 959.....it would not...

all i have to say about my 959,,,it will not transmit at all,,,,,it worked on the bench, put it in the mobile, has never worked sence,,,,,,it turns on, receives,good, talkback works but will not transmit,,,of course i got this radio from that hacker at sparkies cb i sent a message to galaxy 2...

I dont want to hijack this, but my meter will not show modulation any more, any suggestions?????:cursing:

one pictures in his mind that a ham radio operator, is a staunch, bearded old guy , in a hunting jacket,with leather patches on the elbows,ascot, smoking a pipe, while sipping single malt scotch. lolololol my bad

well now, if everything can/could be fooled,whats the use??????????? just throw up an antenna,hook up some coax,and talk heh heh heh

of course it is illegal,anything over 4 watts,and any freq,not allotted to to the 40 channels,is illegal. SO WHAT????????BIG DEAL,i have a ufo digiscan jumps 5 kc's i can go anywhere, and I do. use you're vfo and have fun

any radio cb/ssb/vhf, will talk farther on water than land given the same antenna height. been there done that IMHO:whistle:

well here's my 2 cents worth. I like the old 23 channel radios,i never had a robyn,but i have had johnsons, cobra cam-88,comstat25-a,etc.They all did the job. Recently my wife got a mitsubishi lancer-es,,and i wanted to put a cb in it,,very little room anywhere for any cb,I bought a cobra 19...

well hell,, if you are using 11 meters, who cares. its a vast wasteland of noise,and mexican skip--lol use any call sign you want:bdh:

he had my trc449 for over 4 months,for a peak and tune. when i got it back-----NO COMMENT

i wasn't paying attention,,,it is RF POWER------MY BAD :thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown:

i have always thought the the rf gain control was to adjust the receive sensitivity. while playing with my vr9000 i was dead keying to check watts when i turned down the rf gain control it also turned down the watt output, to almost 1 watt. what am i missing here? or is this normal? thanks Clint

well after reading whatever it was that Doc said i guess my TX 100 has more stuff than you're TX 75 although looking at cb trix its the same unit---lol mine, with 4 +- watts in,puts out around 120 watts and i dont want to hear anything about lowering my deadkey amps are made to take...
