Here we talk on 20 21 22 30 wish I could talk with them guys on channel 6 I can hear them but they cant hear me. Just wanted to try the swap cause ill us it for traffic I'm on the interstate a lot and I swap it back and forth plus I might be getting a little lazy lol I had a 29 sound tracker in the truck it had the channel change on it I got used to that. The only reason I changed it to this one it had the eco board on it and every one I talked to around here said it sounded a little better maybe because of the eco board not sure I thought about taking the eco board out of the one I have now and putting in the sound tracker just to see what happens.

if you look for a echo board you can buy one for just under 20.00 shipped at times. that way you leave the one in the other radio unless you just want to spend the time moving it.

just lift one leg of D32 and see if you still have all the regular channels and if the switch for 9 goes to 19 after lifting it. it is in circuit with the channel selector. it is tied to other diodes in the channel 9 switch mode.

does anyone have a clue how to change 9 to 19 on the digital display on the 29 cobra classic LTD I know there has to be a way it was set for 9 so I'm sure it can be set for 19 there has to be a way. any info would be great if I had a spare one I would tackle if myself till I figured it ok.
