I have done a search without much success. My older 148 cobra gtl has a sticking meter. Any ideas on how to free it up? Thanks Mike |

IF IT DOES NOT FREE UP JUST FROM USING, THE BEST THING TO DO IS REPLACE IT. HARVE UNIT199 |

on the bottom(or is it the top?) of the meter...there is a set screw. turn it back and forth a bit(but try not to leave it in a differant position when threw) this frees up most sticky meters i come across. |

Goat373, This worked perfectly, turned the little screw back and fourth and watched the needle, it seemed to jump free. Thanks Mike |
