Hi All, I got my hands on another Jackson ASC, and lo and behold the Orange wire running from the ASC unit goes nowhere. The end is taped up, so it seems to have no function whatsoever. Much ado about nothing. Sincere thanks to all who weighed in and attempted to solve this conundrum. 73.

Hi Handy Andy, your comments noted, will get around to that after I get the frequency counter and the RFX-150, temp switched fans wired and running. Also there is no ASC light on this "China Doll". Been in touch with President Electronics, they're trawling the archives trying to get me a...

Vector 4K is a great performing antenna, but as delicate as Chantilly lace, it doesn't like the high winds in this neck of the woods, so I was forced to reinforce the entire antenna to prevent it suffering the same fate of the first one. Had to fit a one to one balun to eliminate common mode...

Hi Sonoma, the clarifier is unmodified and the orange wire you refer to is in place. Thanks again, your time and effort is appreciated.

Hi sp5it, I have three overhead shots of the ASC unit and all have different wiring for the same board. The Orange cable on your image has lettering on it, the Orange cable running from the ASC unit does not. Trying to get my hands on another Jackson to establish where this wire runs to. I...

Hi Andy, the PCB is PB332AA the last version made, black face, six bander. All the squelch wires are intact, just this Orange wire running from the ASC unit with no obvious home! Thanks for the info, much appreciated.

Hi Sonoma, the Orange wire runs from the ASC unit to an unknown point in the radio. None of the Service Manuals I have give wiring details of the ASC unit, so, I'm trying to find someone with a Jackson who may take a peek inside and find the solder point of the Orange wire. Thank you for the...

Hi all, I have a Jackson with the Orange wire running from the ASC unit broken off. Can anyone tell me where it should be soldered on the radio, I can't find where it has broken off. 73 and thanks.
