Here You can learn to
Mod your Cobra 148 2000 or Johnson Viking for Superior Audio!
My handle on the radio is The
Grinch. I have modded tons and tons of 148's and 2000's. I
have weeded out all the crapy mods that do nothing or totally jack up
your precious radio. Mainly I focus on audio, if you looking for
more power simply get an amplifier. It's not really worth running
your transmitter to the hilt and this is especially true if it's audio
that your after. I will be adding nice high quality pics of
the actual work being done so you can have your radio looking as good
inside as it sounds. All of the information is free but if you
hose your radio doing any of these mods, please don't blame me.
You do this at your own risk and of course this is for educational
purposes only.
Please try to keep in mind that when it comes to almost anything in
radio, you have to make BIG changes to get BIG changes. In other
words, just cutting the limiter and turnning down that carrier will
only MAKE YOU SOUND LIKE EVERYONE ELSE WHO DID THAT! Which turns
out to be 98% of the people out there.
I will be presenting several kinds of mods from mild to wild.
Every mod requires parts replacements, however, in the "milder" section
these items can be purchased from your local electronic parts
retailer. In the "wilder" section, alot of things will need to be
obtained from online retailers.
A few thoughs
Don't rush your work
Make every attempt to be precise
Don't work on your rig when your drunk or high - do that after
your done it's way more fun
Your antenna and feedline are of the upmost importance
