Just installed midland 1001z. When powered up, it sequentially flashes the channels (1,2,3,...etc.) over and over, but never stops so I can't tune it to a station. The exception is that when I flip the ch. 9 switch, it goes to ch. 9 and stays there. Does anyone know what the problem is?

Well the CB you have should not cycle through channels like that for sure. It is not a progressive scan. Try messing with the channel 9/normal switch again. In rare occasions that switch will **** to the side just a tad. there is a PCB board inside that is responsible for the channels responding to the channel as the channel knob is turned. This board could be going haywire. If fooling with that switch does not take care of the issue then I would contact the person you got the Midland from immediately and have them get you one that works properly.
