Maybe i will today and see what happens.
Thanks for that info
Replaced the 2 resistors, the static is gone, this are normal EXCEPT lol, my freq counter lights are not lighting up, the meters and buttons light up. The dim button seems to just work as an off and on now.
I'll keep at it and see what happens.
Ohhh yeah, stock mic still makes al the icons...
yeah, i'm on to something here though.
