Does anyone know if the echo TRBX3 or even TRBX2, can be wired to the AM selctor knob, so it ONLY OPERATES when in AM mode?
Is the selector knob at the AM position hot or ground?

Use an echo mic if you need echo, don't rape a nice radio.

Not a problem to turn echo on/off, it is an issue of getting it set back when going from ssb to am. Still the question is unanswered.

Sigh.............There are many radio's that it is considered an unforgivable sin, a total violation to install an echo board in. A 2950/70, Uniden 2510/Lincoln, and any ham radio are examples.

Since a 2950DX is a surface mount board many of them have been really screwed up by good buddy truck stop shops putting in echo boards. I hope your radio is still ok.

A 2018 echo mic is a great way to get a touch of echo and talk-back for AM. You might also consider a Magnum S9 or Omegaforce, they both have echo and all mode variable talkback.

I don't think there is any way to do what you want, the most I have heard of was an on/off switch. You might call an RCI factory service center and talk to a tech on the phone. Or you might take the radio back to the shop that installed the echo board in the first place and see if they can do it.

Good luck
 
Very Well said 9C1Driver Thank You. I feel the same way. I use my radios 99% on sideband and anything I have that has an echo in it has dust on the knobs. I enjoy the radio to talk to others around the world and I am sure they don't want to hear any echo or roger beeps
 
I dont understand, why some people have asked the almost exact questions i have, and everyone gives them usefull information, sometimes with/without there opinion, Thats fine thats all I ask for! BUT i usually get OPINIONS and no answers. Oh well........ Thanks
