5:50 You’ve inspired me to try to in-stick the meter on my Chinese 12volt regulated supply. It’s old; voltage is correct but V / A meter is stuck. As long as the needle movement isn’t messed up, I might save it, based n your artistry. Cheers!
Good job fixing that meter! Awesome work and glad it is back in working condition! Thanks for taking us through it!
Thanks!
I love this self help kind of stuff! It was cool seeing the internals on that meter. Makes repairing them all that more possible for a guy like me. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you liked this!
nice comfy repair video. Thanks
Nice job . I had many CBs over the years.
Great repair my friend, keep up with the excellent videos.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
nice work! we always have red nail polish in stock .. great for marking and sealing trimmer cap positions. next job fix a watch!
Thanks for your time
Another great video Rob, keep 'em coming
Glad you liked it!
good save! add a led to keep heat off the plastic!
I really like your fix. Some old tube radios would use a piece of some sort of paper that would allow light to travel through it for illumination to shield heat. I'm surprised that Johnson did not due that here. Stay warm!
Thanks Bob!
Great job!
Nice work!
Good save on the radios meter but uasally don't come across bulbs melting plastic often.
I seen more stuck meters that can deoxit loosens up plus the tension screws get re adjusted.
Nice channel!
Nice!
That happened with the meter on my Cobra 25 LTD.
Hi Rob,
Nice repair. Was it the wrong bulb? You and the family stray safe.
Hi Don.. I think it was the original bulb...it just got bent out of place and was touching the plastic
Nice job 73'
Thanks!
Hi, not sure if you will see this since the video here was from 2 days ago, but, my question is will I benefit using a line conditioner for my radio equipment or just stick with a cheap surge protection strip. Thank you
Hard to say....a line conditioner certainly wouldn't hurt but I'm not sure it would do much to help
@@SevenFortyOne Thanks for replying. I think I'm gonna try the Tripplite LC1200 to take the place of the old strip surge protector since I just got new power supply and amp. Thanks again
Had to change out a metre in my mk1 cobra 148 GTL DX. Proper lazy it was
Stick to cb radio why should it be called ham radi like in the title of the video!!!!😄😁
(old) ham radios have meters too..
@@SevenFortyOne isn't it better to keep to one subject starting with CB radio before jumping to Ham radio?😀😀😀😀
The video is about meter repair...could be ham, cb, or an old stereo for that matter.
@@SevenFortyOne Would it be possible for you to make some videos showing what components to replace to improve a CB radio?🙂🙂🙂
I have a President AR 44 with the same problem with my Power Meter but I don't have knowledge of soldering Can I send it to you to fix it?I don't have any CB shops in my area.
Sorry, I only work on my own radios
@@SevenFortyOne OK just thought I'd ask I'll just probably either throw it out or give it to my local food bank then.
