    Help needed tuning a tube amplifier.

    Thanks for the info. Yes, The pictures were taken prior to cleaning. I did power it up and it made power. I will probably just put it back on the shelf. I don;t know the first thing about working on it. Thanks again.

    Help needed tuning a tube amplifier.

    Help would be greatly appreciated on how to tune up this amp and what kind of power to drive it with. I have no idea about the make of it other than it has what looks like MADA on the front. It has two adjustments on the end, tune and load. Also, there is an adjustment on the back that says...

    Cobra 140gtl with two dead channels?

    Just out in the shed today playing around with my Cobra 140gtl that is hooked up to my base antenna. Anyway, noticed it will not give a static sound on channel 39 or 40.

    Old SBE Console II 23 channel, freq. expansion

    My SBE Console 2 is the later one also. Mine has low power output but works otherwise. I tried to turn up the power adjustments inside the radio per the service manual that I found. However, It didn't seem to help much. I love the way the squelch works on this radio. When you turn it up it...

    Old SBE Console II 23 channel, freq. expansion

    Yeah you are probably right. I mean it talks and listens now so I may just keep rocking it! If it decides to quit working in the future or gets worse I could just try it then.

    Old SBE Console II 23 channel, freq. expansion

    That's good to hear! I just recently picked up one of these radios too and I love it. Mine seems to work ok and I get good reports on the air. However, It is a little low on power and the Sideband is a little low. Everyone tells me that it sounds on frequency and is nice and clear. Just wish I...
