I'm on a budget, and am looking for a little base for the house. I am looking at a used Cherokee CBS-1000. Anyone have any thoughts on this unit? Can they be worked on?
Thanks
Cherokee CBS-1000 ?

Cahnnel expansion
1-remove top cover
2-locate the back of display board
3-on this board you should see 2 pins, connect a jumper wire between the pins (see pic below)
4-power on the unit while holding down the #1 button,and everytime the radio is turned on hold the button for 5 seconds after power is applied
5-to change bands use the button #1 frequncy range is now 26.155-29.655 and may skip a few far and in between.

the cherokee is a small base, hard to tune,,,,and put a swing kit in,,but for a basic base they will work fine,,,seems like SSB was stable,,there are better basic bases out there, and can be bought reasonable, like Cobra 89GTL, 142GTL,,UNIDEN "Predident" ZACHARY T,,,or Washington,,,just a few to mention,,I did like how well the Cherokee recieves,,,but the company isn't around for warranty work if you need it,,,,
