If he is talking about the Cobra 75 the small radio pack that mounts under the dash should be chassis grounded and can be grounded with a strap from the mounting screws if it is not mounted to solid chassis metal. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Sounds like there's a decent solution for the Cobra. I went with the
Midland 75-822 so I could have true portability in one unit. Instead of a little box like the cobra for wiring it in, it's only got a slide on adapter that has tails for a 12V power jack and the coax. So I guess I don't get a good ground. If it's an issue, I can upgrade the CB to a non-portable.
