Sounds Like you have Bad wiring in your Mic connection. Also if you are using it at home on a power supply make sure its regulated so to not get the Humming sound. Also what type of Coax Cable and antenna are you using? Also are you using it at home or in the Car? Have you tried a different Microphone? Hope this Helps. Let me Know.........

Cobra 148 gtl d has problem transmiting with covers off. trying to tune radio up. was thinking I need to ground the chasis

I would say a bad or cold solder joint on board somewhere. Bad quality control. Might flex radio chassis slightly while keying? A tooth pick and hours of probing around switching area on board and the pa section till problem found.
