Look to the LEFT of the forum here and you will see:

Mic. Wiring
Frequency Chart
CB & Ham Lingo
Modification List

Just click on Modification List and then go to MAKE: Cobra

and all of the information is listed there.

808, i know where the mod list is,what i was asking was for someone to tell me what to do because the mod list "Does Not" it just tells you what what diode to cut or remove or which vr to turn and what resistor to put in or take out.... |

AM Power ~ VR6
This means you adjust VR6 to the dead key power level you want.
