Ok so clipping is ok when someon can verify that your dynagain (on cobra) isnt too high? Thanks for that.. very inspiring.. Was thinking of adding a switch for it off (clipped) and on... also there is a cap and diode isnt that to lower the dk? and could I just put a swith to basically byspass...

Ok.. NOW I AM CONFUSED!! Coil power Cobra 25LTD I got a 25GTL.. According to what I have learned here, you dont spead coils for power! Then why does all tuts on this cobra 25GTL say 25 VR5 or Cut D9 L13 L10 L9 L8 Some of these are the coils. AND the others the slugs are missing. There...

Picked up a cobra 25LTD For cheap Picked up the original 40 channel Cobra 25LTD with mic on side. Can I do it to this one? if not I will wait to find one of the above that will match with the 142. The tuning slugs are gone, and they have a cap/resistor so I am guessing they were using this...

Isnt the 142 initially the same as the 2000? I love the old cobras. people around here call them starter radios, But I love the way this 142 sounds both receive, as well as the tx (With a small amp)

Thanks for that info.. yea I am probably going to look for a 29 and keep them as collector piece. As still it says clear all over 29 and the from is 26.. Never know one day it might be worth something... Needless to say if it had 40 CH the way its built I'd use it...Love that their 5 watt...

I can see something like this on the antique roadshow.. dynascan cobra 26 blah blah ... worth 10mil Lmao! Cought my attention over the phone before seeing it.. old lady..coba 26 on the front, coba 29a on back" Thaz how she said it

Are you sure its a cobra 26? There is no mods, or info on this.. As the inside has all the room for what the 29 has this one doesnt. She said her husband used to work for dynascan and he brought it home when they were in production, so thats probably a limited make the 26 models.. very...

I dont know.. The 29 had a red and blue light in the corner and 3 switches.. I can see looking inside the bezel has the cutouts for all of that just was not installed, thus making this different then the 29... no one has seen one before LOL Thanx for the info Only thing I hate about the cb...

Cobra 26 Pix 1 here they go.. Why did they put a picture size limit on uploads? the last time I uploaded cobra images they were HUGE to see the whole board! page 1

Yea there is always something going on on 19.. us night owls.. I have a few crystals... Would like to tune this radio and put it on the shelf for collectors as no one heard of a cobra 26 and google has nothing... back says 29a.. Weird.. Going to buy a 148 but just wanted to see (With this radio)...

Any know how to mod this? weird radio I picked up.. Older 23 channel radio says cobra 26 on the face, but Dynascan type 29a.. Plugged it in to maco (where my base is) and with no power someone said I stepped on someone with this untouched oldie.. however that was 2am when few were on.. I knew it...

Wanted to share info about PLL's My study Material.. I think LD is why I Couldnt transmit.. Turns out technical error made that transmit on all channels at once... OOppps.. VCC or VDD. ---------- This is the +DC supply voltage which atually provides the operating power to the chip...

WHOA! Yea thats probably what i'll do... That Royce is in excellent condition, but I believe it was you who shed the light on just modding a simpler rig :)

Well so far I am at no luck getting channels on my royce, Not that I have given up, but would getting a 148 to match and doing the channel mod line up with the channels that this 142 has? For simplicity i'd like to have similar setup on the mobile especially so the wife will know.. "A, go to 14...

Well I am going to purchase the actual book, I'd prefer even purchasing a pdf version but am lost for luck with that... I will share once I get my hands on this :)

LOL.... You are the only one that noticed that.. I am willing to read a whole book about pll's just to get them on this royce. Reason? my uncle was really into building linears amps ect.. when I was a child I got his toys that he messed up.. He is dead... and now that I am older I am finding out...

good starter radio is a cobra 142/2000.. I am new to talking on them and you'll meet some cool people, and some plain out azz's.. word of advise dont get cought up in the drama.. Ignore most of the BS, and have fun with it.. Good meter to check your swr as well as good coax.. I went with the...

No that was my point... Turned out to be the power... and a filter fixed it.. It was to say the least that this method can be wrong sometimes...
