Cobra 1000 GTL. Just make sure the power supply within the radio can handle the extra watts.
Ignorance can be fixed. Stupid will present a special challenge!

The 1000 is a 29 in a box. If the current draw
gets too heavy, you can always power it with
an external supply. Kinda defeats the purpose,
but can be done.

If I could down a power supply and fit it inside I would be happy. I want a old Cobra base to do what my 29 does. Just like the thought of it!
