Cool thanks! now is that just carrier or is that over all power? im just wanting to change carrier

I'm trying to figure out how to put variable carrier in this radio. i cant seem to find much info on the net. any help would be greatly appreciated..

my radio keys up 1 watt on AM and it keys up 0 watts on SSB

btw, all 16 pills are mached.

Thanks everyone! ive got plans from acouple of different sources and ive got all my parts. I am going to carefully read over them all and take this process very slow and particular. I will post pictures of my progress.

im looking for some plans. ive never built one before and id like to give it a shot. i know that it can be pretty intensive when it comes to tuning and biasing. but ive gotta start somewhere. the reason i say 2SC2879's is because i already have 16 of them along with a 450 amp power supply. any...

can i get these plans too from someone?

Battery is good and not leaking.

No

Ok. I've got a new problem with this radio. The led screen isn't working at all. Completely black. No leaking caps or any residue of cap leakage on the led board. What else could be causing this?

Awesome!! Thanks!!!

Yeah I saw that mod. I'm not sure if it will allow 11 meters operation or not. I guess I could give it a go. Anyone ever tried this?

is there a mod for this transceiver to operate on 11 meters? I've tried to do some research with no luck.

Thanks!! Greatly appreciated!

The higher the carrier, the lower in volume the tone is. I'll unplug some stuff to see if it is one of those things. Tried that once but I may have missed something. Thanks LF

I'm looking to find a variable power circuit design that is compatible with direct injection on cobra 29 radios. The standard TIP120 produces a tone in transmission. I've also tried a tip29 as well. Is there a better design for variable carrier power? Any help would be awesome.

Thanks everyone for your help. I got the t/r switch made. Works great. The device I use to key my radio is also used to switch the receiver off. It kills the receiver just very slightly before it keys the radio just to be safe. Thanks guys!!!

Also, yes this is a solid state transceiver. It is on a vertical antenna as well. The CB its self only puts out about 12 watts pep on AM.

Call me a wishful thinker but it would seem like there would be a certain "point" on the Board that one could solder a coax wire to for receive to an external receiver. Like the point where RF comes in to the receiver portion of a transceiver.

Still one problem left, how am I supposed to run this receiver in line on the same antenna since it has one coax connection on the back of it?
