CPI-2000 FIXED (GREGG'S RADIO) FROM MA
Hi there sir, thanks for the tip. I tuned down the coil near the finals in my 29ltd classic to 2 watts and drives the KL300P to 50 watts RMS & a little more than 100 watts P.E.P.. I just dips down a little bit. Audio is clean using my Turner SSK. But I have question. For a 5 month old N.O.S radio that was working fine for only 5 months then suddenly the RX suddenly goes so weak. Sometimes when it warms up RX comes alive. Leave it ON for 2 days straight & everything's fine. Let it rest, the next day, dead again. A few days later it's fine again. Given that my antenna and everything in between is on good working order in my shack. Could it be possible there's a bad cap somewhere in the receive section? Date of manufacture printed on the board is July of 2014.
Check for cold solder joints. That's what it sounds like to me!
Just bought one but wish I would've got a Washington or a George.. I have a 503 rm italy haven't hooked it up yet
Washington would be a good choice from what I hear but definitely stay away from the 980ssb radios as they have many issues

I remember these ❤️. Never owned one though We’re these stable on SSB or is this an RCI DRIFTER board ? Seems like I remember these older ones like this been very good sideband rigs 🤔 That wave form is beautiful !!!
Yes, they are a great radio and yes, they were a stable board as it was one of the earlier boards when they were built right.
If this is a brand new radio, why would it need alignment and tuning? Are they that crappy from the factory?
The factory only checks so many of them down the line. If one fails during functional testing, then they check so many back from that point overlooking some thus giving you a radio that is usually off frequency etc. So it is important to always check any radio you buy new because of the reason explained above, thanks!
I just got into CB radio this year. I put one in my Suburban. One of the first people I heard was Mud Duck. I didn’t know who he was or anything about him just heard him talking about splatterboxes and window lickers. What is a window licker? In live in SW Ohio.
Mr STU, could you also give a detailed assessment of the power supply it has and your opinion of its longevity (rather you feel the Damn power supply will last). Thanks again and God bless whoever!!
So, the power supplies they use are good however, there are a few things to watch for, such as the ALC being cranked up as most of the power supplies will eventually kick out shutting the radio off. The other problem is it is switching, not old school power supply where they were more rugged. The newer power supplies are good but many are sensitive and if the voltage is exceeded or current draw, then the radio shuts off. Otherwise, it is a nice base, just have to run them good and make sure they are setup clean and not high dead keys etc.
What is your overall assessment of the radio Mr STU and is it worth the money, and would you say the Recieve is excellent?Thank you and God bless whoever!!
it's a good talking radio, the receiver is good as well. It's worth what a person wants to spend on a radio. There are many good features with the radio but I would rather go with the RCI-2995DXCF if I had to choose between the 2 radios only because there are more options, features and you can do more with them than with the 69 base plus. Also, keep in mind, they advertise these radios to do all that high power which is completely false. There just a 100 watt radio.
Hello Mr stu sir hope you and yours are doing well love the videos and just wanted to say thanks for sharing your knowledge with us not many techs do that take care
You are very welcome
Good morning stu
Hello my friend
🎉
I'm pushing paper today. Have a great week.
You too!
Good morning s t u
Good morning
Your next radio is a Cobra 29. You do alot of them. I'm going try to find Sam's Photofacts book for that radio so I can follow along with you. 🙂
Email me and I will gladly email you the schematic for the 29 if you want? dxradioshop@yahoo.com
@@dxradioshop Awesome. I will do that. Thank you.
Hello, thanks for this video as i am just in the process of programming my FT991A for the ISS repeater. I thought the uplink was always on VHF and the downlink was UHF but you mention it the other way round ?
Your very welcome! Downlink 437.800MHz FM; Doppler +-10KHz. Uplink 145.990MHz FM with 67.0 Hz PL 145.80 down/144.49 up for ITU Regions 2 & 3 145.80 down/145.20 up for ITU Region 1
@@dxradioshop superb thanks for this. I got my radio programmed up
Very cool
Thanks for fine video i bought this type of tuner the counter belt was broken i now find out MFJ gone no longer exsists what does one do now?
Keep searching online for anyone who may have them. All MFJ products will be hard to get parts for now being they closed down which hurt a lot of customers and vendors.
Hey Hey Mon Ami ..... Your audio is very low , please kick it up about 5 notches lol. If your gain is at 4 or 5 per say put it on 8 ...
How many 29s did you fix today? Never mind 15-4=11 Cobras
I managed to fix 10 of the 15 cobras today.
I would say oscillator/mixer, or maybe PLL. But I'll watch the video to see the answer.
I didn't know transmit light indicated good PLL...always learning from you.
Yeah, the TX led told me that the PLL wouldn't be an issue rather the 10.240 reference would be a good spot to start thus finding bad solder joint in and around that area in which fixed the problem
@@dxradioshop I assumed the red lights simply came on when the mic was keyed and the power supply TX voltage was enabled. That's why I love watching your videos!! Thank you!
CORRECT
Hey Stu does all of them radios have the same finals in them
For the most part yes but they do change them at times from IRF520 to RT1 to RT5 finals so depending on which version you have will determine the type of finals in it.
Another fine tune-up. 🏆
Thank you, sir,!
what is your hourly rate?
I don't have an hourly rate & no bench fee either! I just charge by the job at hand.
@@dxradioshop Thanks for the reply!
Your welcome!
Catching up at 21:29 😮
I have a 79-290 that needs the bulbs replaced. Works fine except weather band has very weak reception. I had one years ago that the weather band was fine
Might be able to get my hands on one of these finally. Seller says it transmits and receives on sideband and transmits on am, but no am receive. Is that something repairable and worth getting it or should i hold out?
Depending on what their asking would determine if it's something you want to put money in. They are a great radio. I would buy it if the price was right but again, not know what your buying it for and if your willing to put money into it for repairs. If your looking to keep the radio then yes it is worth it but if your looking to flip it then based on what you pay and what you'll spend on repairs may not be a good idea.
@dxradioshop so far I'm at around $40. Definitely willing to get it fixed and keep it. I've been searching for one of these forever lol
They are well worth having that's for sure especially at $40.00 lol
Good job 🏆
Thanks!
Hi there sir. My sister bought me the same radio new as that, how can I lower the power output without any mod so I can use it with an rm italy kl300p?
There's one rf coil in the back near the final you can turn down to make that adjustment but have to make sure your output signal remains clean while adjusting it.
@@dxradioshop Copy that sir and thank you so much.
I need a good 11m with some power
Stryker, Galaxy, Ranger are all good options!
@@dxradioshop yeah could we talk personally I have a budget etc in range
The only one that I will let touch my radios. Keep up the great work Stu! Rob in South Carolina.
Thank you kindly my friend!
Great video. Boy you are busy! Can't believe all the radios you are receiving. And you're upgrading your electrical service. Exciting month.
Yes, been very busy here with multiple projects but getting it all done.
Howdy Stu! You have rescued me from the monotony at work. It's Aaron. Not sure if is showing my name or my RUclips handle.
Hello my friend
Any chance that the speaker not working could be an easy fix?
If you have no sound from your radio, you can check your external speaker, check your mic and go from there to see if you have a bad speaker, speaker jack connection or bad rx mic wire
What was the final sale price? It's a beautiful radio.
$500.00
@@dxradioshop Recently bought one, same price +Shipping to California... i think is a Beutifull Radio with 3-6146 Tubes. Is not common on Rigs.
This radio is still working great and talks almost daily. Im currently running the 138 23ch in my travel truck along with a 77x that is installed in my work truck Both are fixed up and running great by Dx radio shop. Thanks so much Stu
That is awesome!
Update Stu fixed this radio around a year ago and i use it in my work truck every day. Everyone complements me on how great it transmits . Little radio but loud and proud. Thanks again Stu.
Thanks for sharing, you have a great radio my friend
Nice bench!
Thank you!
Please... Where are you sourcing your large format schematics? I have a 148 with no power to the channel selecto and a no transmit/recieve. I dont know where to probe.
I have the complete service manual for the radio. If you need help on your radio, call me & I will gladly help you out. We can chat about it on the phone and & I can walk you through a few steps to check for you to try & fix it yourself, save you $$$$ sending it here unless you want to send it here for me to fix but I can help you either way, thanks! 315-945-1600. By the way, NO charge if I help you over the phone, only if you have to send it here then there will be aliment/tuning & repair cost.
Good morning good morning good morning
Good morning
I can't believe all the mods you have to correct. I was wondering how the MIC gain adjustment on the front panel of some radios work. Does it change the percent of modulation? Great video Stu. Thank you!!
Yes, exactly, your right on top of things my friend. As you turn down the mic gain, the % of modulation will decrease.
Hello Stu !
Hello my friend
I wish these radios can run on freeband channels that is awesome radio cobra 142 gtl.
Yeah, these are great radios. I have one here NEW in the box I'm keeping for my collection
That’s insane
Jeff Neely is just mentally sick lol He argues with himself under several fake accounts and some people actually believe it's different people until he was called out and it was proven it was all the same person behind the scenes lol His MO is the same and no matter how he switches it up, it is very easy to see between the lines that it is in fact JEFF NEELY the mental case lol Anyway, He wants me to do a response video so he can argue and keep his drama going but I've got news for him, I'm not going to do one because I have too much work to do and don't have time for his childish games, his jealousy range and his habitual lies. Also, the investigator is taking care of this matter with him and by August Jeff will be arrested and all of his fake accounts will be gone, and all the stupid and ridiculous posts will be gone as well and then people will see how many CB groups will go quiet because he opened several under fake names, and they too will be deleted the investigator said. All the paperwork has been submitted to the DA as well and their just waiting on me to go to Mansfield Texas to finalize everything which is a pain for me to have to go there instead of virtual but it is what it is and if that's what it takes then so be it as long as Jeff Neely gets arrested and charges for his BS then that's what I'll do. He has 2 reports previously filed on him and now a 3rd and he was warned before to stop harassing m e and he did for a few months and then started up again and now he's facing 1-3 years for that on top of phone pranking and deformation of character which I was told by the DA he could get an additional 1-2 years for that charge so looks like Mr. Jeffery won't be on Facebook causing trouble for a while or his RUclips lol Besides all of that nonsense, I am looking forward to helping others and starting new projects and ideas for the general public to be a part of. We will be doing online electronics classes for FREE and projects together LIVE STREAM so people of all ages can enjoy, learn something new & exciting and see what the hobby is all about. Thank you for your support & hopefully will see you in our chats with these upcoming projects, thanks again & have a great day!
I got the VIII model, seems to be a decent radio. I need to patch in a VFO at some point so I can get the upper channels.
There is info online on how to modify the Hygain 8
@@dxradioshop Mine is 23 channel crystal synthesized unit. Can use an Arduino unit I'd guess like in my other radios.
Thanks Stu. Appreciate your help
Any time!
I need a frequency counter For the cobra two thousand
I need a frequency counter
I'll check and see what I have and will let you know
I have watched many videos that Stu has put on here, Stu is spot on with his work! It does not matter if a man has been on the tube for 1 week or 30 years, If the man has the juice and shows you the actual results of true work performed, how can you be so blind and ignorant. . . During the fone call I personally had with Stu, the man knows his stuff and has challenged me just in the short contact I have had with him. For the dummies that cant read, listen, or just wanna argue, HIT THE ROAD! Thank you Stu! I hope to get more training from you ! Thank you for the videos! Crusty Rudder in okla.
Thank you, my friend. As many already know including you as well, I have a wealth of knowledge and I'm not afraid to share it. I believe it is important to share it and help others as the very kind guy did for me. It is always a blast on my channel because many including yourself enjoy learning, helps others with new ideas, helps with different ways to troubleshoot, building fun kits and much more. It is always educational for sure and that is what the hobby is all about. I enjoy helping others, I enjoy getting people more engaged in the hobby and get their minds more open to learning new things. As you mentioned, I am very informative, I show my work, it's all live stream and when the video is complete, the end result is a very good quality and finished 100% working product. That is what customers want, someone who is very honest and really knows what they're doing. As for the TROLLS and that idiot Jeff Neely, well he will get his very soon. August is coming and I'm planning the trip to Texas to press charges on him and put a stop to his sick and mental madness. He loves to destroy people and live his worthless live as a bully but after I go to Texas, he will be BIG BUBBA'S LITTLE PET in a 6x8 jail cell, so I am looking forward to finally putting him away through the justice system. I will keep everyone posted on that as time comes near when I make the trip. I'm not going to say the date, but the results will be known when I get back and it will be posted for all to see and there's NO way he can talk his way out of it. The best part is watch and see how many CB groups, RUclips channels and fake accounts will be deleted because he won't be able to maintain them while he is locked up not to mention screwing his life up more losing his CDL license and his job. Thank you again for your enjoyment in this hobby and for your support as well. I look forward to sharing more videos and now we're getting into making fun kits live stream with anyone who would like to learn or just have fun and something new to do in their spare time. Thank you again my friend!
How much ?
Already sold it during the live stream video.
Very very nice radio
Yes, thanks
So glad you are takin care of business! Bullies are top 3 worst types of people on earth. Love your videos. You are admired and respected.
Thank you so much! Yes, he will be taken care of come August. I was told that he is living at a motel on and off instead of his dad's because he's afraid to get a knock on the door and face the law lol That was told by an individual who called me the other night and I heard the recording and other things that weren't appropriate by Jeff Neely. I will NOT waste my time making videos on him because I have work to do and radios to fix so I'll use my time wisely for those reasons and besides, the law is handling the problem as we speak and when I make the trip there next month, he will see there's NO bluff. He knows this because he already has 2 reports on him and now a 3rd report which was the final report. The cops told him a year ago if he were to continue and if there were a 3rd report files against him by not only me but anyone in general, he is harassing then he will go to jail because of his nonsense and incompetent behavior.
