where to get parts for Uniden Grant XL??
 

After a long period of time since I've been involved with CB, I am thinking
of coming back but my Uniden Grant XL needs a few inductors. Browsing the
Uniden website, I see that the Grant XL is no longer listed, nor is the 148
GTL on the Cobra website. Does anyone know if they still carry the parts
and, if not, what is the alternative?

Thanks,
Jack Pederson

Find out their values. You should be able to get them anywhere. Why would the
inductors removed?

Just go to any gay web page. Keyclowns are all gay, and they love it

Most unfortunate that you had to respond this way because I ended up
repairing the radio myself today. There were 6 burned out tuning cans.
Just to find out the exact inductance/ capacitance values of each can, I
disassembled all 6, determined the exact number of primary/ secondary turns,
plus the parallel capacitance value, and then reassembled with the new
windings. I now have official values for L4, L5, L6...., etc for the Uniden
Grant so that ferrite toroids could actually be substituted in the future.
I was considering sharing this information with the group because it took me
nearly a day to disassemble and unwind the tiny coils. However, after the
response I received, I will not be sharing the info. You are probably
running one of the latest export rigs, which generally don't perform as well
as the "narrow band" Grant, which makes the Uniden a keeper. So be it.

I bid you farewell so that you may return to your domain.
