Hi,
I have a Cobra 18RV Mobile CB radio. I have tried several DC power
supplies
(including Radio Shack and Uniden types) and I think I have come to a good conclusion. When I use a 9 Volt power adopter, the S/TX meter only goes
up to about three (3) LEDs. When I use a 12 Volt adopter, it goes to four (4) LEDS. And finally when I use a tunable power supply that goes from
3-17 Volts, I find that the more Volts input I give, the more LEDs light up, which seems to mean that more RF power is being radiated from the
unit. So I now run it on about 16 Volts,
but the radio needs only 13.8 Volts, and it seems to work best with about 16 volts. If anyone can confirm or deny this theary, please post it here.
Thanks,
Eugene
I f I were you I would plug it directly into 220-240 volts.Wont even
need a 'leeneer' then!!!
there is no such thing as an adopter. get over yourself
