I'll tell you but no one else. Q203 was turning the modulation off. $1.29 at Rat Shack and we are good to go. Thanks all Ron

To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:
Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.
If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.
To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.
The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.
For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).
This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.
Dak cb but no modulation help!

OK, so what is the function of that transistor? You said it has a tube transmitter so I'm confused. You leave us clueless again.

The Dak mark x has the same mother board as the lafayette telstat ssb 140 40 channel side band it just has a two tube transmitter.

I'm sure those that like to tantalize people with pictures of these stock get some sort of satisfaction out of it. I use everything I have.
In order to troubleshoot any system not only does one need to know the value and plus or minus tolerance but also need to know which components can be tested while still mounted and some that have to be disconnected on one end to get an accurate reading. The average operator generally does not have the equipment nor the know how to do an evaluation like it should be done.
These old radios can be a pain to work on and get working halfway decent. Without the right stuff and experience you will really be better off letting someone that knows and is equipped to work on your Dak. I've been trying to find someone myself.

I think this radio was repaired a while ago. if you let other people work on your equipment you will never learn a thing. just an appliance operator.
That's true! As long as one understand the risks of a radio never working again without a lot of help. This is one of the main reasons a lot of qualified tech's don't like to work on them. I don't know........ I wouldn't go as far as to call CB enthusiasts that enjoy the hobby. just an appliance operator because they may not know how to repair their radios.
