    RCI 2995DXCF alignment procedure questions

    Well, I did find different alignment procedures that do make more sense than the manuals. PLL Synthesizer / Oscillator Frequency Alignment: 1. PLL2 - VCO Voltage: A. Set radio to 24.890 MHz, AM RX mode, connect multimeter to TP10. Adjust L14 for 1.0 Vdc ± 0.1. B. Set frequency to 29.699...

Seeing that the Alignment procedure is not that informative what’s the best approach for setting L18? I don’t want to just Willy...

    RANGER 2955DXCF strange issue

    OK this is a strange one, let’s start with it is a bit off frequency on SSB but spot on in AM & FM that’s not the weird issue. when the radio is cold and keyed up at say 10 watts AM I not see a frequency read out on an external counter or scope but when I turn up power to say 30 watts it starts...
