After changing the 'usual four' capacitors & realigning this 1981 set, it was time to test it.
(End user job)
Recorded 11th April 2026
Mr Chippie drove along our usual 6-mile test route, the 'wrong side' of a hill. He stopped at the five mile point for a low power static test. The radio was set for 4.0W on full power & 0.4W (400mW) on low power. A standard replacement mike was used throughout. At the end, the factory original mike was also demonstrated into our base station.
Our continued thanks to Thunderpole for kindly supplying the T3000 radio (and new mike) which is fitted to the test vehicle at no cost to us. This is the sole reason for the 'paid promotion' marker on this video.
