Joseph,
Yeah, I gotta do that but I read the display manual first. The
display is in trouble. And, yes, if you turn up the volume while in SSB
You hear the counter doing it's thing. Can't hear a AM station at all
due to the tones it's putting out. Recieve is still very weak on ground
wave. Best to go through this unit one module at a time. Too bad they
didn't build extender boards for it like the FT-101. As for the display,
I,ll have to use a combination of scope and frequency counter to find
out where the problem lies. Perhaps the timebase or the oscillator. Too
bad all the ICs are not 7400 series. Hope I can still get them all if I
need them. And V4 is dimmer than the others. It cuts out too.
