This is a question for a SX-28A expert out there.
Well, I've really done it now. Elmer has struck.
A wax cap was heating up in the RF Deck after the radio played for a
while, so I went in and replaced the bad caps and resistors in the 1st,
2nd, and mixer boxes. Not fun. I really didn't want to, but I didn't
see an alternative. I marked all the wires as I dis-assembled.
.
When I got to the point to hook up the wires connecting to the 4 pins on
the top of each metal box I found the wire marker fell off a blackish
wire. It looks like it should connect to one of the 4 the mixer box
pins, but I don't know which one. It doesn't seem long enough to reach
much of the other boxes but I suppose it's possible to get to some of
the 2nd stage.
The "mystery wire" is blackish color, and I think it goes to a terminal
strip connector. A 1K resistor goes from that terminal strip connector
to the 6L7 pin 4. I think it should connect to 1 of the 4 pins on top
of the metal mixer box but I can't figure out which one.
Does anyone have a diagram of the wire connections to these boxes?
As SX-28A is on side with IF cans on top, from bottom of chassis the
view looks like this: (Oscillator box not shown)
