Too bad HG doesn’t make a mrf477 replacement, it’s just feels wrong to have to have a conversation about a mosfet mod for these great old radios. At this point it’s probably the only option left to keep them going.

Yes, they work in the original Lincoln.

I get what your saying but those in-expensive Baofeng radio's do come in handy. I have two that are programed with FRS,GMRS, MURS, 2M, and 70CM. For me they kinda function as a listening device or scanner. One is set up with an antenna designed for GMRS. For the 25 bucks I paid used if I happen...

Get an antenna analyzer and see what’s up.

https://www.rfparts.com/2sc2290a-mp.html Not sure what the HG’s run but $119 for a matched pair is not terrible. I don’t know if they ship your way or not.

https://www.rigpix.com/cbfreeband/magnum_1.htm This radio came with a tcxo circuit from Magnum, great hard to find radio.

The 979 was a decent little radio, all it should need is a nice tune and alignment. Then put a good mic on it and let it roll. It will drift on SSB some, just the nature of the beast. If you really are planning on doing a lot of SSB talking maybe there is a TCXO mod for it out there for it.

Yes the radio is working as good as ever. Thanks guys for the recommendation and comments about hamrepair.com , I’m very happy with them.

Radio is back and working fine. Needed new finals and then just a general check over. I am happy with the overall service from this shop.

I have had great luck with these for anything in the 5-40 amp range. Just put the metal end in a vice grip and fill it 3/4 with solder and then dunk the cable in. Works great, I have had zero failures in 15 years...

What are you hoping to accomplish by doing this?

Hard to say what was popular back then. Could have been four of the FQP13n10 mosfet finals.

I am in Indiana and was talking with some locals on 36 lsb, there were some storms moving into the area. I was keyed up and talking when I noticed I had no output. Switched over to a dummy load still nothing. Checked a 2m repeater and a station got right back to me. The next day I tested...

So is this the new version of this radio (mosfet) or the old school? If new it should do around 45 watts peak, if old school 1969 finals then 30-35 watts. This radio has a hi lo power switch. On AM the lo side should have a dead key of say 2 watts and on hi 8, this way for amplifier use run it...

Holy crap, I can’t believe you don’t have your radio back yet.

It's in hamrepair.com's hands at this time.

The watt meter between the radio and amp lets you check the SWR on the input side of the amp. If the SWR is high then the amp was not properly tuned for 50 ohms and needs some work.
