Chrons sucks ! I've had it about 15 years or more . Arthritis and no energy kill me the most.

I bought their McKinley first, and absolutely love it! But I like using it as a base station, so I wanted something more suited for a mobile and this seems perfect. Having the USB port built in is an awesome feature, because if you ever travel long distance and use any map feature on your phone it’ll run the phone battery down. I also love that it has FM and the codes, so that if I’m ever convoying with friends or family we can block out any random traffic. There’s a concrete company near me that uses CBs so the trucks and loader can communicate with each other

Will this also work with SSB ? 🍻 73 ✌️ ☮️

Definitely on my bucketlist to get to run in my pickup, im currently running a retivis RT95. Im looking to using amateur radio, cb and a scanner in my pickup

Wow nice radio, I like the blue lights, had it been mine, I would have also put a blue led in the ch 9 and a red TX and a blue for RX but that’s just me, great job as always, Thanks

Want more power with this radio, put an en Italy km 203 and problem resolve.

That is awesome thank you for video

Some good info on your Video about PR2 just got one today also got the antenna that retractable from 9inch to 51inch

Do they typically sound not great on ssb or is that just me

I also own the Uniden Pro 520 xl. It's a great little radio. I'm going to hook mine up in the base with a power mic. Stock. Thanks for the CORRECT information.

Thanks for posting, I picked up a old 142 Cobra that I was told was off freq a little low according to the guy I spoke with I want to know where to adjust up the freq and i am not sure what I turn up. I hope to adjust it to another radio i have to get on freq or close

Bought this practically brand new unused on eBay. Attempted to convert mic connector so I could use Cobra type 4-pin mics. Wasn't easy original mic plug is sandwiched between chassis and using an adapter you need like 5 inches clearance. I am very pleased with the outcome and the freq counter conversion. The original was a kit bought on eBay and that was the box that came with it.

Merry 73s Christmas

Nice job on a great radio, keep those Realistics alive!!

I like to speed the AMC up by swapping C71 (220uf) for a 33uf, it will bite and release much faster. Our speaking voices with syllibles dividing the input signal work slightly different than the 1Khz test tone we use for testing. Try it you'll like it.

Very nice job!!! Any chance I can send a Midland 78-999 to you ?

Nice radio i loved frequency counter that is pretty cool clean radio.

i have TRC-451 need repairs.

Yes i have talk to zero AZ i was on the air on my cobra 139 the last few days on my second youtube channel I"m UDX-362 over TN.

nice work getting this one in to shape. i was hoping for a receive test with the sinadder, or did i miss it?

I have one. It's been dropped, which bent the shafts. It's scratched all to pieces, and it was left out in the rain. It still works perfect.

great radio!

What radio would you say has the best/quietest best sounding receive that is 40 channels. Anything current? I have this old Courier 23 that beats about everything for quiet receive. And here it is, for reference: ua-cam.com/video/5lRMWvNZyco/v-deo.html

Nice work! that frequency counter looks great.

very nice job. Buckeye 353 said that

What mess on 1 of those ajusting coils if people need modifications to their radio should bring it to someone like yourself who know what they are doing I used to have a Cobra 148 GTL DX about 50 years ago I enjoy watching CB repairs Merry Christmas & Happy New Year 2025

That looks great

G'evening & nice Job 🤠 . That's kinda kool & the frequency counter mod is definitely interesting 😋 . What's your contact info ?. At some point in time I'd like to get my dad's old radio fixed. It's a Uniden pc76xl from the Philippines 😇 .

My favorite radio shack radio well really uniden but you know what I mean

I have a Midland 77-856 made in 1977. It’s in great condition and seems to work fine, but I know electrolytic caps have a relatively short lifespan. How do you know when the caps need to be replaced?

I adore your channel and your very talented. But I'm going to say I'm a firm believer in ,if it ain't broke don't fix it. I have this exact same radio, take a look. Kevan-Swansea is my channel I also have lots of other vintage radios. Some survived the test of time, those that don't. It's time to swap parts out. I love your channel,

I had a Cobra 148 GTL DX 50 years ago good set know 2 faults are the same much learning

I have a uniden pc68ltw which needs help.. My 68 works great, but with the squelch fully closed, i still hear stuff in the background. It's almost like the squelch isn't blocking the sound it just quieter it until something breaks the squelch.. anything I can do to fix it? I just did an irf520 conversion on it, and it's working great besides the squelch keys 5w swings 35-40w

I just gave one of those away it made a young man’s day to get his first radio

I have a uniden pc68ltw which needs help.. My 68 works great, but the squelch needs to be almost fully closed to block the static, and even with it up, i still hear stuff in the background. It's almost like the squelch isn't blocking the sound it just quieter it until something breaks the squelch.. anything I can do to fix it? I just did an irf520 conversion on it, and it's working great besides the squelch

Have not watched all the way through - maybe the owner has a problem with a Shorted Antenna.

Was it hard to find that Cinch Jones connector? I have a TRC-48 with no power cable and JUST learned about this connector from you!!!!

I’m sure you tried Barkett? He doesn’t list everything so you have to call and maybe he has one? Great videos!

Nice work keep it up.

Sorry I said the wrong shafts on the potentiometer. Outer is front, inner is back.

It takes me back to my cobra GTL 148DX I had many yrs ago

nice video. i have one that has very odd sounding receive, i tried an external speaker but it just doesn't sound clear. I'm thinking it has weak caps

Nice job on a nice radio.

interesting

CB States What?

omg to freaking funny i heard myself i am the 975 guy lol

the meter looks great after worked on btw i am in gloucester also might have you work something

How do I get in touch with you?

Thanks again for another great vid. The Stalker 9 looks great. I forgot to mention in your last vid that with a leason 232 mike they sound amazing on SSB. Just gotta be careful where you set the gain on the mic. Now you got me wanting to get my 2 best radios re-done ! GE Super Base and a CPI Cp 2000 with the factory base mike and factory amp. 👍🥃🇦🇺

I need this done to my 29 nw
