Default Midland 79-290 PC board adjustments...? Guide needed!!


Does ANYONE have a cheat-sheet of all of the pot-adjustments for the Midland 79-290 radio :?:

I need the locations all of the balanced modulator adjustments, as well as the main frequency reference adjustments and all the rest. My VR's are NOT MARKED on the board, so a pictorial might help as well --- anyone :?:

Thanks!

CLICK HERE for a detailed thread on the 79-290. Plenty of info. already discussed and exchanged if you take the time to read the 4 pages worth. There are board pics and major component/adjustments identification. Some parts remain a mystery as it's almost impossible to obtain service literature on the net, unless you purchase some from Midland.

BTW, last time I visited LaPorte was back around '91. Happened to stroll into the Roxy Music store while needing a break from visiting a relative at the nearby hospital. At the time they were the only licensed vintage Fender parts dealer and the prices for those parts was astronomical ... even back then!
