Need Saber I help
Hello All.
I neep help with a Saber I H43QXN7139CN Vhf. With a fully charged battery it only transmits a few watts and just sitting idle it will drain the battery in a short time, 30 mins or so.
Could someone give me some more insight on what particular module might be bad, or if it;s a motherboard problem. I have inspected the modules for a loose fit etc. They all seem fine.
I just can't seem to pinpoint the problem.
Thanks

Has the radio ever been apart?? Is it a factory radio or one someone parted together?? Take it apart and make sure the PA module is inserted properly and that noe of the pins are bent and not inserted. What you have describe sounds like either a bad PA or one of the PA pins is bent and not inserted.

Sorry for the Delay,
That was it I tried with a Friends good PA midule and it worked great and does not drain the battery now.
Now does anyone have a good PA module for a VHF they would like to sell?
Thanks
