I've read some posts that say the Stealth version should not be used with an amp and others that say they do use them with an amp. What's the deadkey on the Stealth? On my 29 HP version, it deadkeys at 2.3 watts and drives my amp just fine.

I have a Connex with the blue lights. Same complaint, too bright at night. I cut a little square of window tint film and put it over the channel LCD and its no longer a problem.

RMS setting does not read all of the harmonics put out by the radio and so it is a better way to see what the radio is really doing.

I know you dont want to hear this but it is the truth......look it up on the net if you want and you will see for yourself!
Truth is Carolina Thunder...This radio is not your "Daddy's 29". The final has been replaced with the New Mosfet Final, a Swing Kit, High/Low power switch, Talk Back, Pre-Amp, and Large Cap's for line noise, and filtering for bleedover...This is like the Cadillac of Cobra 29's!

(also Cadillac priced at $199)
