Is there a magic key to Cobra's parts numbers on this radio? I'm looking
at I "believe" D12 (not looking at notes so I may be off one number) -
but it is the RF detect / SWR Calibrate diode I'm interested in. It
appears to be a 1N60 in the radio. I have two faults to correct in this
beast - the SWR isn't calibrating NOR measuring forward power. The other
is a missing sengment on the lower part of the ones digit. I am hoping
it is a bad solder joint or something stupid. The person doesn't want it
replaced (to save money) - but I hate seeing things go out half assed.
I'm working on getting the diode straightened out first. That will be
job #2 of 3 done.



CB's are disposable.

Just throw it in the dumpster and buy a new one.
