    Okay, so I realize this is a super duper old thread but I was wondering if anyone had info on installing the Lou Franklin FM-2 board. I found one in a 2000 parts radio, A few of the jumper wires are loose. I'd like to try to get it working on another 2k. Thanks!

    Damn, problems you outlined mine is experiencing. Fuzzy sounding, seemingly pushing too much power 8/900w (i was in disbelief and blaming the meter). Great thread, I'll certainly be referencing it as I step through this one.
