The new HG 1969 is a pretty good replacement part.
Nice..love the fender Rhodes piano on the music
Tried my best following this guide and few others only to end up with an even worse left click. I wonder where I went wrong, I got omron switches and now instead of a double click, it doesn't work at all on input and from time to time holds down left click from just touching the microswitch until I manage to wiggle it back to not working anymore.
Love it! Thats a work of art Well done
Thank you very much!
is there no need for the band switch after this mod?
Nope its not used , i have purposed it for +5kc / -5kc
Good work mate , how much does it cost do one
Another great conversation mate. That existing board made quite a mess.
How do I go about getting my3900 dds’d
Hiya Mate so the dreaded track cutter strikes again as you said a proper hack job still you did a great job sorting it out it looks really good now great video as always mate
Hi there. Git my president washington last week I didn't receive the frequency chart with mine trying to find a .pdf download of it any ideas? Had 11m etc put on mine and fitted 2 fans, a lit of kit to take in just wish I can find the chart would help no end I'm new to the ssb etc I'm an old AM FM 80's CB'er Great rig such a different world to my harrier cbx with extra block on it a bit of vintage but this president 👏 I'm smiling. I have same antenna but is red one on magmount. You run a boot too or straight 80watt out the back to get Brazil. If no boot wow you done well. I'm going up a hill to DX lol. Do you use auto tuner when mobile gor swr across the bands I find mine goes high.... what do you use... BD39/ Silverrod / 73's my friend
Hi The freq chart is just a standard cb freq chart , nothing special, and no boots were used ;)
@MicroChipz Forgotten to ask what do you have the SWR protection set at for your president think I set to 2.4 is that really safe can I go to 2.8 ? I have 1:1 on many band frequencies just some are cutting radio off so wondering about auto tuner unit for mobile.... Cheers..
I havent changed it from default , and yes a mobile tuner is a good idea, i have a battery powered MAT tuner just for that, maybe work 10m on it safely .
Hi Graham the person did not set the n code for ch1 correctly in the setup menu for the digimax for the mc145106 , nothing to do with the install as such .. lol,ed hard when i saw the cobraworkshops crap beep the pic chip having it number scratched off is a joke its not hard to reverse engineer the pic code tbh . Any good engineer can write code that does the same
That would explain its strange readout, im sure the mod is good when setup correctly, its just a simple ncode mod.
Max produces some nice kit. It's not his fault that some folk can't fit them. It's assuring to know there are techs like you who have the knowledge and skill to put things right. Nice one
He does yes, however whoever fitted this made a unnecessary mess.
I noticed the beep was a cobraworx one, wonder if he did the conversion, we will never know. Nice repair work and I love the screen in the channel. Cant wait for the next vid
The conversion i suppose was fine, just the brutal cut tracks when it could of been done neater.
beautiful work on the repairs to the cut tracks graham solder work is like its come from the factory another old school radio fully working mate and correctly . five stars again graham .
Thanks 👍
That channel display is excellent! How much is a supply and fit?
Fitting to a WORKING radio is about £100 , if the radio needs extra work to get it working before the mod then this is extra.
@@MicroChipzdefinitely worth it, they should release a cobra 148 with the same board, it really blings it up and makes it modern.
The channels work by adding the 3 + 7 to give you 10, then 1 + 0 = 1, which gives you channel 1 high band.
Bit of a strange way to do it , but if it works i suppose.
@@MicroChipzps, I was just joking.
lol ok you got me ;) . As you can see I have no idea about the mod .
@@MicroChipz my neither, but I very much enjoy watching you're videos, always a great watch.
i so love to see china crap in a quality uniden, but wheres the argb lighting! half arsed ! silicon is highly corrosive (acidic) + conductive but then so was that brown rubbery glue (just like evostick) uniden used on these
I've got a superstar 360 here with 3 blocks of 100 channels, its hard work especially as they run 700 to 999.
Looks like a Les com kit
lol beep in a bag had a few of those over years
Thats what cb radios do on the rx rf input a pair of back to back diodes ,for this case it depends on the gens max ouput level so maybe zenners instead its just the extra capacitance that might be a issue but at 50ohm dont think it would be
Some back to back diodes or zenners would be a good idea across the chip output just before the coupling cap, just got a hp8657a and paranoid of breaking it so any comments on output protection very welcome, any probs with the diode or zenner idea? The diode capacitance shouldn't be a problem at 50 ohm, same as long coax iam thinking?
Good idea . Might give it a try
best video for argon one v3
Glad you liked it
Realy not bad for price wouldn't mind one of those
Yeh it’s not too bad , been using for a while .
a very nice multi meter like the blue tooth feature on it looks good anybody's radio shack or workshop
It’s not too bad to be honest , been using for a while
Hiya mate those T12 tips are £17 for 10 good video mate as always
Thanks Andy , not too bad price , i do like how quick they can be changed.
Yes me too I have a iron that uses the T12 I think I showed it to you last time you were here
My Radio and Graham has done a stunning job on her!
lovely work!
Thank you! Cheers!
📶Very nice jod ! Très beau travail de restauration. Félicitations. Le Concorde reste un TRX de référence avec une bonne sensibilité malgré une sélectivité moyenne. Il est devenu rare , et vous devez faire des envieux avec votre vidéo 🤩 Merci and Best regards F4LPH
I wonder if the manufacturers of these radios knew that they are still being used 40 odd years later after being made?.
A blast down memory lane...nice 😀😀😀
That was an awesome video and I love the way you have showed things going wrong, because it lets viewers know even the experts have problems from time to time. Cant wait for the next one.
The 1k resistor and diode on the bleep board was probably a power feed for a K40 microphone.
Good call , yes its a possibility.
Great video thanks, gave me some guidance on cleaning the channel change wafers which I need to do. What about setting the carrier balance pots?😂
Follow the service manual , transmit on SSB with no input audio and using a oscilloscope set for minimun out put on the rf
Nice job and you got a new subscriber! I really like the way you work!
Thanks for the sub!
graham u have the patients of a saint, great job on the concorde mate .
Thanks
Maybe 3 different colors of nail polish Graham to mark the wafers next time ,😂
Or maybe don't drop the inner part ;)
Love watching your repairs and mods. Takes me back... 👍
Glad you like them!
Always thought them concords good looking sets
Yes , one of my favorites for sure.
👍
Thanks
Mine is measuring 2 MHz too low. Any idea if I can adjust that?
@@peter7235 get the service manual , and check against a known good source like a gps reference and maybe calibrate .

@@MicroChipz Yes, really well done, also the size for installation 👍🏻
High gain 5 is the best in my opinion
A classic for sure.
Bleep me!, that's a nice collection of bleep boards there!. I will have to see how much money i got left after i get paid and put an order in!! 😁👍
Lol nice.
My first ever rig to have a beep was a multimode 2 and it has remained my fav ever since...beep...
10-4
Mine was a crapstrad 901
@@MicroChipz it is fun to alter the value of the capacitors in the amstrad bleep to make it sound more interesting, also changing the value of the time delay (tx/rx) capacitor as well!!.
I have no idea what DDS is... Is it something to do with digital electronics? I ask because when I saw the Cobra 148 GTL for the first time it is Am and SSB and my first imoression that that is analogue technology. I am not sure, even though I followed some courses at college on digital electronics, the course is called Logic 1, my thought is that I should get a better understanding of analogue before diving deep into the digital modes. Nevertheless, thank you for making this video available! it is always a pleasing to see the Cobra 148 GTL mobile CB radio!!! Thank you MicroChipz! 😀😀😀🐵🦍🍀🌍🚎🚑🚂🕒👓®🏁👍
Glad you enjoyed.
