Mystery Button on Cobra 41 Plus?
I bought a used Cobra 41 Plus CB, without the manual. The first
pushbutton on it is labeled NB. What exactly is this? I can't tell that it does anything when it's pushed. Also, the mic for the 41 Plus is a smaller DIN-type connector with 5 or so small pins. Do they make adaptors which will allow me to connect a regular 4-pin mic connector to the 41 Plus? Finally, what is the Dynamike control supposed to do? |

It is the Noise Blanker (gets rid of electrical noises from power
wires and the air. There ain't no mystery to this! An extension cord adaptor can be made to convert your 4 pin to the 5 pin din. Dynamic is a MIC GAIN--leave all the way up. Dave!

Try to keep it as low as you can, test it with a friend a few miles away from you. |

To bad your not in my neck of the woods I could convert that radio to a
standard 4 or 5 Pin connector. As for Mic Gain, it is used to increase the signal (Your Voice) to the radio. Just like a Car audio amp Gain, it is not a volume control. If it is truely a Gain circuit, cranking the gain will usally induce alot background noise or may feedback. "Josh" wrote in message om... I bought a used Cobra 41 Plus CB, without the manual.
