Hi all I have TRC picked up at an estate sale.. It recieves fine am and ssb..
But on transmit it's txing at 22.500 on all 40 channels am and ssb has good output power and audio the radio was partialty recaped looks like audio and power supply.. Psu puting out 13.5 v
Any one run across this issue?

Thank you
 

I had an old PC122 that was someone elses basket case. The PLL wouldnt lock at the correct voltages, as an experiment I added voltage to the lock line to see if the rest of the radio worked. I remember it recieved fine, but transmitted at some lower frequency, . Then after removing the added voltage I believe the radio started working properly on transmit, with double the VCO voltage spec.
