Kaplah! Thanks to BC Coyote for the correct tip about Tight Connections and not to use the Spring Clamp bitches. Connected to my MegaWatt 36A P.S. with tight connections and 12g wire for testing and the thing fired right up and seems to be working fine. Got the bottom cover off first to look...

I have one of those 36A Switching Power supplies around that I could attach 12g wires with secure terminals to tighten down. That should be adequate to just power the thing up and light testing right?

Also - went to open it up today and the bastard has two high quality steel Security Star screws on it. Don't have those bits. No luck drilling them out yet and have Easy-Out bit set. May have to chisel them off dammit

As sits .... Input is reading High Open. 3 Million ohms. Switch on or off is the same. Is that normal?

Yeah it came with like a 3 foot set of heavy cables with heavy clamps like come with large heavy duty jumper cables. Figured that would work to simply power it on and test. It has LED indicator lighted display.

Another funny about these inverters - Have this friend nearby who ONLY has these around for like Winter Storm power outages. I have 2 diff. portable gas generators. I was questioning him about why he went with these and said "so I don't have to mess with a owning a gas generator" - yet he has to...

Hooked to my truck to test. Didn't power up and there was some slight sparking around the clamps at the battery so I immediately stopped for further investigation. 2000 continuous 4000 surge

I can take pics later. Just got the thing yesterday. Will probably pop the cover today. Thanks for all the tips. Would be nice if I could get 'er fixed. Likely a $200 unit for the size

Hi Group, Was given a China Chicago Tool 2000/4000W inverter today that doesn't work. Can anyone suggest common failures for these things .... some places to start looking? Haven't been inside it. I'll look for blown protection diodes on the input in case it got hooked up backwards. Any other...

OP is talking about mobiles

Best wishes Selling it friend. More than anything it's not a high-want item as it's just a low power cb. People want other radios right now. Medium and High Power Exports with all the frequencies and extra goodies built-in. So it's not the economy either. The economy is frigging booming right...

Just another example of People Like What They Like and it's all good. I had one back in the day w/ Chipswitch and all the mods in the universe. Cute little radios but today they're so old and only 25 watts unless you do a little something to squeeze a few more watts out of them. I don't see the...

Pliers with Rubber Grips on the jaws

Looks really good. 80W. Who has the best price on this now?

Can't you check it out yourself on the air? Don't have a power meter?

Hi guy ..... just wondering something about that rig .... states PC Programmable ..... can you open up the TX inside this radio or does that require computer programming?

Friend has a remote disk drive. Going to ask if he can bring it and come back and try again using the supplied disk. Radio came with Software disk & cable. I am guessing that his disk drive has a spindel-holder in the middle that holds disks in place so that the supplied mini-disk will work in a...

Did Both - no effect

Just seeing if anyone has any ideas. Is new TH 9800 (not plus) apparently a 2023 model. Very experienced friend came over to help. IT Engineer he is. Very experienced programming all kinds of radios including Motorolas etc .... Had a PC laptop factory Windows 10. Downloaded SW at Raddiodity...

Is the Header saying that it also Receives 136~174 ? ..... but is 10~11 TX only ?
