    It seems like the only thing that changes the schematics is features or functions on the faceplate.

    I have seen people asking all over the web for this Schematic and honestly this is the first time I have ever seen a real answer. Thanks guys.

    Thank you very much. It is going to be so nice to have this radio working again and to have a decent schematic.

    Appreciate it Brandon. If you don't mind me asking what Schematic are you using. I started out with a Galaxy 88 and it started getting way off so I have been using one for a 2517 but I still notice some indiscrepancies. If I had the time and patience I would correct a similar schematic to the...

    So I am guessing that's so it can shift the VCO voltage without dragging the whole PLL around. Please someone correct me if I am wrong or headed in the wrong direction. Trying to learn

    I am looking for a 10 meter radio or two. Preferably SSB. I am not a fan of anything with SMD (surface mount devices) or mosfets. It can be mobile. Thanks Jim

    Uniden Grant variable power?

    Thank you very much for the reply. Yes I was looking at the way it's wired in. It kinda shocked me when I seen one of the wires coming from the on/off-volume knob. Good eye on bias will definitely take care of this radio. The man who owned it is now a silent key.

    Uniden Grant variable power?

    So I bought an old uniden has a knob on the back to control variable power. Inside was a piece of round plastic with 4 wires going on to it so I warmed it up and started slowly removing layer after layer it appears to be 5 diodes in a series. With 2 wires hooked to each end. Anyone seen a mod...

    HAM/CB operators ... how old are you?

    20 years ago I was the youngest guy on the radio around here. Unfortunately I still am. I wish today's youth would take interest in something other than a cell phone. 73's

    Tube Type Palomar

    So I have owned 8 tube type amps in 20 years. I have never used one. Mainly due to lack of knowledge and experience. I have this Palomar I know nothing about. It does have tubes in it. Capacitors all look new. I have not plugged it in yet. I never plug anything in without thoroughly looking...
