Hi HD,
I installed my cobra 29 today and am having same problems. I would greatly appreciate a copy of that pdf from cobra. Im new to forums and stuff to. So what will you need from me to email or send copy to me?
Thank You -

I was reading on a CB forum yesterday. Even having ungrounded metal parts will create distortion. Like your doors, etc. It recommends using grounding straps to bridge the gap instead of running grounds straight to your antenna mounts. Even if the door is not used, still ground it.
The OP probably had a poor fender ground with all the painted parts. A ground strap probably would of improved his situation. -
I really hate to make this post any longer, but I'm having the same issue with my SWR on the same radio. 7 posts to be able to PM... I apologize to the moderators in advance.
