hey Crossbow!
Thanks for coming to the thread, i didn't want to say who it was without you knowing.
Also thanks again for this radio. it has been a lot of fun, along with some good ol' frustration trying to dig up any info.
I'm writing up a quick and dirty alignment sheet for it, but with the wax covering so many PLL components it's hard to find the test points.
I would be very interested in hearing about your experiences with this radio, and obviously any service info you might have come across.
did you cut the track on the band switch? it had to be done to make it work, but i have been wondering if that's something you figured out or if it was done by some distributor or something.
What was the main problem you were having with it? wasn't it something like the TX being 5kc off or something weird like that?
did the heatsink for the TDA2003's get hot on receive when you had it?
im pretty much interested in anything you remember from owning it.
more to come!
