I understand. Sign me up.

It seems like the only thing that changes the schematics is features or functions on the faceplate.

I have seen people asking all over the web for this Schematic and honestly this is the first time I have ever seen a real answer. Thanks guys.

Thank you very much. It is going to be so nice to have this radio working again and to have a decent schematic.

Appreciate it Brandon. If you don't mind me asking what Schematic are you using. I started out with a Galaxy 88 and it started getting way off so I have been using one for a 2517 but I still notice some indiscrepancies. If I had the time and patience I would correct a similar schematic to the...

So I am guessing that's so it can shift the VCO voltage without dragging the whole PLL around. Please someone correct me if I am wrong or headed in the wrong direction. Trying to learn

No bites??

And I have been well, and yourself?

I am looking for a 10 meter radio or two. Preferably SSB. I am not a fan of anything with SMD (surface mount devices) or mosfets. It can be mobile. Thanks Jim

I bought the first one. You said you had some more radios to sell was just curious what you had..

Fixed ..... Sort of. So i replaced pretty much everything on that back section of the board. Radio still wouldn't wake up so i begin tracing 8v rail found a red wire with a diode coming from the clarifier going straight to the 8v rail. the wire seems to have been clipped at J106 pin labeled...

Ok .... Can't believe I am about to post this! I haven't touched this radio since I put up the post. Tonight I hooked it up and and let it sit. Finally I hook my rubber banded mic then the xmt led red/green turned red for a split second now the green and red are both on. Nothing on my watt...

Thank you very much for the reply. Yes I was looking at the way it's wired in. It kinda shocked me when I seen one of the wires coming from the on/off-volume knob. Good eye on bias will definitely take care of this radio. The man who owned it is now a silent key.

So I bought an old uniden has a knob on the back to control variable power. Inside was a piece of round plastic with 4 wires going on to it so I warmed it up and started slowly removing layer after layer it appears to be 5 diodes in a series. With 2 wires hooked to each end. Anyone seen a mod...
