Default RADIO HELP!

I just got a used Realistic CB base station trc-432. When it will
turn on for me it produces a strong smell like there is something
burning inside. Any suggestion on how to fix it?
thanks in advance

It's probally fried now.If there is a CB radio shop near you,you can
take it there and have it checked out.I would check out the thrift
stores and pawn shops and junk shops for a good one.You can also check
out the yard sales in your area.I don't do ebay.New ones don't cost much
money.

I had one that was doing the same thing. It seemed like the final output
transistors were overheating. I didn't try to fix it, I just took out a
few usefull parts and through the rest away.
