Hi. My texas star 500 dx has power to the front 2 pills, but no power to the back 2 pills. All power transistors and suspect resistors have been replaced. Any ideas why there is no power to the back 2 pills?

Hi to all. I have a mic tester that works well. The mics I test show to be working correctly or not. Testing one mic in the proper jack, the rx light shows green and the tx light shows red as they should, but no modulation when talking. Could this condition be caused by a white audio wire that...
I purchased a Hygain 14 cb base. It powers up, lights come on and changes channels, but no TX or RX. Anyone have any ideas of what the problem might be. I was thinks a blown final, but not sure?
Thanks for your help here.

Hi to all. My astatic 575M-6 mic battery wires broke off at the board where they were soldered to. I was able to resolder the positive wire back to the board. I I do not have enough solder or wire on the negative ground board to resolder it back. Can someone tell me where on the board would be...

Hi to all. The internal section of coax the goes to the antenna jack on the back of the cb broke off and is now to short to reattach to the jack. Is it hard to replace this coax with a new section and reattach it to the jack? I can find no help on line or on you tube that addresses this problem...
Hi to mall. I need a picture of a Colt Excalibur SSB mic plug in that is facing the radio and shows the pins and slot ridge the mic fits over. Can you number the pins and show what each number relates to and the wire color for each also. A hand drawn picture would work fine.
Thanks for all your...
It worked fine until this last time I tried to use it, but now nothing. When you key up the red tx light comes on and the meter works. Release the key and the green rx light comes on, but no rx, tx or squelch.
Thanks for your help here.

Hi does anyone know if you can get swing and variable power kits that are universal to cb radios? If not do you know some shop or someone that sells these kits for different cb radios? I have 3 or 4 different cbs I want to install these on.
