Still got it for sale?

I have both radios. I unlocked the 980 after watching LesComm do it on YouTube. Worked very well. I don't recall exactly, but when I looked at my Grant II I thought it was enough different to make me NOT try it. I've been waiting for the correct answer on how to get it done. Please share if...

I had the exact same issue and a new PLL chip fixed it. YMMV. Good luck.

Even the shops don't have the schematics...................

Look up the P5/P6 mod. I've done this on all my Galaxy's and it works good. Much less work. You'll need to keep a road map since your model doesn't have a freq counter.

Aluminum will quickly oxidize when in contact with dis-similar metals. How about a heavy gage copper wire soldered in a couple of ring terminals and bolted between the two areas you want to bond?

Thanks for the input. I've got the dial on the Siltronix pretty much lined up with the correct frequency the radio is RX/TX'ing on. I thought if there was a neat way to have an active frequency display coming from the radio that might help me dial it in faster/easier. The truth is that after...

I got the VFO hooked up today. Its a Siltronix model 90. Seems to work well. Exit13: I powered it with the same power supply as the radio. It works well. Took me just a little while to get the dial calibrated and the radio TX'ing and RX'ing as the dial on teh VFO reads. Tomorrow I'll...

Appreciate the info. I Googled the heck out of the subject and that seems to be the only answer.

I've got a vintage, (mid-70's), MINT Midland AM/SSB I'm getting ready to hook a VFO up to in order to tune to the frequencies above and below the "cystalized" 23. Anyone have any pointers as to where the correct spot is typically in these radios to pick up the operating frequencies??

I've done business with Les. He is expensive and it takes a while for him to get stuff done. I have never been disappointed in his work though. I purchased a LC-6404 kit from him and installed it in a vintage 148GTL. It went well and he was helpful with a couple of questions on the install...

Bumping hoping somebody has a 90-5 they want to part with.

I'd like to find a WORKING Siltronix Model 90-5. If you have one you'd like to sell / part with let me know what your asking price is. Payment can be made via PayPal.

Shoot me schematic of what you believe to be a better circuit and I'll give it a go.

We'll be awaiting your feedback on a potential fix. I'd do it in a heartbeat. I've got one here I will begin on with proposed changes.

Congrats Rick !!

27.425 is my normal "parking spot".

Looks like a 146 chassis. I LOVE that radio. I have several and they TALK. Exit13 worked on a couple of mine. GOOD basic radio.

P5 / P6 Mod is free and works well. Cost is two switches and an hour of your time.

+1 on LesComm expansion boards. Work great.
