Hi all
Just picked up one of these but it has a problem and was hoping some of you guys may be familiar with this radio, i am in the UK so we don’t see many of these.
The binary code is stuck on the ch9 code no matter what channel you select. The Vco appears unlocked as when i try to set the vco...
All received!! They are perfect. Thanks for the suggestion on the eprom, a mate of mine has said he may have a seitch assembly from a scrap rig so i may have something to start with
Ok will pm you my email address. I am in the UK near London, never heard of one of these before and we have a few cb shops but most wont have parts for this they tend to carry parts for out stand alone 40 fm channels, or sell 10m radios a lot of the dx’ers buy and convert to run on 11m. I will...

Managed to try the procedure last night - very interesting!
I got 70ma across the cut wire link in the ammeter before touching anything, moving VR14 to zero took the 70ma to zero, so i put it back to 70ma with VR14 then turned VR13 ( which was set at halfway) to both ends of adjustment and it...
I would like to double check the driver and final bias values as I did attempt to set them some time back and I an wondering if maybe I haven't done it correctly. Originally I was working of the Pace 8193 service manual which when you cut the wire link shown in the photos (putting an ammeter...

Hi all
Am I barking up the wrong tree here?
I set up to record the radio mod and it sounded off frequency to me tonight so I set up my oscilloscope and two generator and include the images below, now I am still trying to lean so no expert but the ALC (VR11) from the modulation envelopes appears...

Hi all
After some help to solve a recent problem that has come to light, I have been getting reports of poor modulation from users both local and long distance when I am DX'ing. Set up a radio near by and my mod sounds gritty / distorted on SSB.
I tried adjusting VR11 (SSB ALC) and although it...
