depending on which model it is there is a reverse polarity diode near the power cord that connects the radio . If it was connected wrong no matter how many fuses you insert it will keep blowing them. You have to change that diode in order to get the radio to work. If you still have the fuse problem then take it to a tech and let him fix it.

here is the pin outs.. look at the switch in the mic handheld housing.. and attach as the one shown for midland 4 pin. this will work with any radio. and doesn't matter which color is what.. as long as the wire on the switch matches the wire on the pin correctly.

• Hi, I can help.

• If you rig is working part of the time and then out of the blue is "staticky" then I would suggest that you check the antenna connector on the back of your CB. Also check the connector on the coax going into the radio and also check the coax where it leaves the inside of your car and see if the outside of the coax is pinched or worn.

• Static out of no where is a good sign somehow your antenna is failing. You could also be picking up some bad skip which will raise the needle on your CB and cause a lot of loud static out of no where.

• Static part of the time and not others is not really a symptom of car interference (even with a hybrid) so the filter won't really serve in that aspect but it will quiet other noises so it is not a waste by any means.

• if you have any comments please feel free to leave them here.
• Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa.

it sounds like u fried your final.. Its only your driver/buffer transistor that's working right now..
if u can identify them usually large square transistors close to the aerial conn,
look for # on front of transistor buy replacement and replace . if your handy with the iron it should be a cake walk.

hi yes you will need to replace the pa transistor located at the back of the radio under the top panel

Aluminum is a great conductor, and it sounds like your setup is just fine. Make sure that CB/PA switch is in the CB position. If it is, and you still don't hear any transmissions, chances are that there's just no one using this one-popular service in your area. I just tuned through through all 40 channels here in San Antonio, Texas, and didn't hear a single peep.

Try asking any onrt CB'ers if they can hear you at all.

Could be 2 things -

#1 - you are really too close.

#2 - you've blown the output stage of your rig by keying the mic without an aerial fitted.
- This is very common, and most repair centres are used to dealing with this.
If you are up to electronic repair, it's possible to DIY repair.
Could also be an antenna mismatch or fault.

Hi yes it is possible as is anything if your willing to pay for the conversion , it would require new chrystals and resetting of the If system but is possible . However porobably not economical Midland did do The 100 model in an Fm modulation format and you will probably find still available on Ebay or Amazon if not that paticular one a good version at any rate ..I beleive they did actually do an Am Fm model also ...Regards Vortash

red to (+) , black wire goes to (-) on the battery, 50 Ohm Coax cable to an aerial mounted onto a flat horizontal metal ,so that the aerial is at 90 degrees to the flat metal its monted on. Adjust the aerial size to see a SWR less that 2
