A little update to this project: I did connect it directly to the pins and it now works as it should it seems like. While it works,I would still love to know exactly what those "missing" parts was suppose to do. I only connected Black to pin 1,orange to pin 2 and red to pin 3 and got...

Greetings good people. So I got hold of this old Grant with some hack-jobs done to it,and I found out it transmits 10w am/fm,but got nothing out on ssb. This was bad until I realized that I should try an original president four pin mike to make sure it modulates. After connecting an original...

Okay. Thanks for the advices. Am in no hurry to get this service done since I for the most part is using a Yaesu FT 450 AT ,but when I get around to it,and x-mas-time is in the past I would most likely use one of your suggestions. Still hoping someone knowing of someone good in Europe as well...

Hi again there 222DBFL. Thanks for the tech advice. I might just pick you up on that. Need to calculate prices and so on,but I was planing for it to get a check up at some point. I dont know of anyone around here,or even in Norway so I probably would need to send it somewhere. I want it as...

Thank you so much for the reply 222DBFL . It is the black face. The radio feels like it was never used. I am ordering a power/swr meter very soon,but as far as I know it has 4 w am/fm following french laws. Its said to be from a display rack in a store in France. And it only consume between 4...
