Think I am in the right forum to post this but please move or delete as appropriate while I find my feet back with the hobby and the forum.
As I mentioned in my intro to the club, I was drawn back into the hobby as i had a little extra time in the house due to CV. Around 7 years I was lucky enough to live in OZ and while using their CBs, I got the bug and bought a new Cobra 148 GTL from the States and shipped it over to OZ. After a week of trying to talk to someone it got boxed up and has sat in its box until last week when I brought it to life. Again not much happening on that radio so invested in a new set up and the antenna goes up on the roof next week.
So that leaves with me the Cobra 148 GTL. Not sure if it has any value if I flog it, not sure if anything can be modded to make it do something else,
So would welcome the thoughts of the forum.
Am happy to flog it as I do want a small rig for the car if i can find something that fits in the glove box and can go with my K40 or my Ozzie mobile antenna that is a hell of a bit of kit but mounts onto a bull bar. Plus I shelled out on a decent 30A power pack this morning and the wife has now closed the bank book for radio stuff

Thank you for the reply. It is a GTL and is AM/USB/LSB only. Might as well shove on eBay and see how it goes next week. Can then reallocate the funds to a mobile rig and a spare antenna for the house for when the rod bends in the wind. Thanks again
