    Copper must have closed them down.

    148gtl variable power mod?

    The way I have done it is to get a potentiometer the same value as the one on the board, remove the factory one and then run three wires to the board. Never had an issue doing it like that.

    Uniden grant xl alignment info?

    This is for the Grant LT, but should suffice for what you need. https://www.cbtricks.com/radios/uniden/grant_lt/grant-lt_pll_adj.htm https://www.cbtricks.com/radios/uniden/grant_lt/grant-lt_tx_adj.htm https://www.cbtricks.com/radios/uniden/grant_lt/grant-lt_rx_adj.htm...

    It sounds to me like the mode switch is broken. That is where I would start.

    Galaxy N kit

    It lists the 29 GTL, not the 29 LTD. They are different boards.

    Variable talk back

    I would try changing the value of R197 and see where that gets you. It's a 10k ohm resistor hanging out by R244 and TR39. If that's the one then you can just wire in a variable, or just change the value to something more suitable.

    Solar panels

    I have been thinking about it for a couple of years, it just came to the front because he stopped by. I need to do a bunch of research before I jump in head first.

    Solar panels

    I recently moved into a new construction house and I am considering having solar panels installed. I am wondering if there is anything that I need to be concerned about with regards to interference either from the inverters on the panels, or from my transmitted signal to the panels/inverters? I...

    President Radio Finally comes thru

    Exactly. I had an issue with my 2950DX about 12 months after I bought it where it intermittently wouldn't transmit on SSB. I ended up ending it to Rolling Radios and he took care of it for me. This surface mount stuff is for the birds. I think it was just a bad solder joint. I have been enjoying...

    148GTL barely slides - what am I missing?

    That's very curious to me. I've done a number of 148/Grant/2000 calrifiers and the only one I had this issue with was the 2000 (2-3kc) because it had a crystal channel kit in it. When I removed the kit and jumped the PLL the slide jumped up to 10kc each direction.

    Why does my pre-amp decrease signal instead of increase?

    That's interesting Nomad. In all my years I've never had one fail on me. The one in my 667 that I've had since 1996 still works just fine, and I'm betting that amp is all of 35 years old. I've just had better luck I guess. (I'm not questioning you in the least. Experience is experience.)

    Why does my pre-amp decrease signal instead of increase?

    My question is are you sure that you are hooking them up in the correct direction? Hooking them up backwards would cause this.

    Bi lateral 4 power dx 400 amplifier

    Hey Nomad the combiner you linked is for the DX1200/DX1600. This is the one for the DX400/DX500/DX600/DX667. https://stores.goldeneagleradios.com/texas-star-small-toroid-combiner/ Now I know you can use the large one in place of the small one because my 667 has had one in it for almost 30...

    What is the BEST AM-only mobile CB Radio ??

    I think the most popular AM rig is most likely the Cobra 29LTD Classic. They have always been good performers for what they are.

    Good Older Amp for a Galaxy 95t2

    This is why I have a long chassis sweet sixteen that I drive only with a 2950DX or Galaxy Pluto. The extra power I'd get from driving it harder than that would never be noticed and it will last me forever. I have a 667 that I have beat to within an inch of its life and it hasn't failed me yet...
