REPAIR TIPS:
29 GTL:
1. "Motorboating": Locate C242(.001)on pin 5 of TA7222 audio ic and move to pin 4 of ic.
2. Weak mic gain: Some raios have a 2SC372 mic amp. Replace with a 2SC945.
3. Receive on adjacent channel: Bad solder joint to C131 (next to 10.240 crystal).
29 LTD:
1. OVERMOD: Check D11
2. PLL dead, no TX or RX: Shorted C112
3. No TX/RX with Channel LED lit on RX and then goes out when keyed: Bad /shorted C119.
29 LTD Classic:
1. OVERMOD: Check D11. Missaligned VR4.
2. Internittent audio/modulation: Bad solder joints on pins 1&2 or 2&3 of audio ic.
3. TUNE UP TIPS: L11 is the TVI trap. DO NOT adjust!!! Stretching L12 gets moe output. L14 peak is about a turn or two up from factory original setting.
