Don't know if this is the right sub-forum or not. If not Robb, please move it. I'm gonna talk here, about myself and another. I'm coming back into the hobby after a hiatus of fifteen years. In those fifteen years I calculate I've lost about fifty percent of what I knew. The more I work with...
First, the good! The 2000GTL is here and trouble free!It's been tuned(Nothing cut), two-switch channelling, unlocked Clarifier. Everything was well-done and easily recognizable Wired a Turner +3 to it and ran some SSB today. Did very well. Nothing to do and nothing will be done on this radio...

I just got A Cobra 142gtl from somebody that really needs a lot of work. first it has some sort of Variable AM output knob on the front that needs to be removed. It has a lazyman's Expo 'B' channel kit(Why, I don't know, it has an 8719 Chip), Then, there's the power output. Max AM deadkey is...
