Amplifier on PA output
Hey guys, I have a quick question. I'm going to put a small amplifier on the PA output on my cobra 29. My question is, can I just solder the power and ground wires for the amplifier to the back of the power input plug inside my radio.

Re: Amplifier on PA output
What type of PA are you talking about,, something like the RFX75/85 does connect in on the power leads and you have to increase the size of both leads and fuses.

Re: Amplifier on PA output
Just trying to amplify the output from the 3.5mm jack for the PA. I got it working but I have a lot of engine noise when the truck is running. I'm going to try moving the power wires farther away from my speaker wires and see if that fixes it.

Re: Amplifier on PA output
Sorry, I was thinking an RF amplifier. The "public address" jack has less than 5 watts output but any audio amplifer will work, just remember the jack is mono.
