I got a couple of radios last night off of Craigslist one of them being a Regency CR 142 and the other a SBE Trinidad plus 2 WORKING Turner plus 3 mics which was the real reason i bout the stuff. The Trinidad works great (awesome receive!!), but the Regency doesn't transmit.. What kind of final does the CR 142 use? It almost looks like one of them 3 legged can looking deals like in my Sears 23 Ch base mobile...
 

If it looks like a mini UFO shaped one, it's probably either a 2SC756, or a 2SC799. Most likely a 2SC756. Either one of those would work in that radio. Good Luck!



~Cheers~
 
It looks like a mini water tower with 3 legs. There's also a driver as well i need to check... This thjng has decent receive and id just like to get ii working to add to my "classics collection".
 
HOLY CRAP this radio barks now!!!!
I don't know what type of final was used in it but it keys up 3 watts and pegs the 20 watt scale on my meter now, and it is LOUD!!!!
