Dave-It's hard for me to keep those numbers straight. 94-3, 95-4, 94-5....I had to look it up.http://staff.salisbury.edu/~rafantini/Dayton%20Hamvention.htm  has some photos i recognized.Thanks to Ray Fantini for the photos there.Dave, it says KA8TUR operated it. Maybe he has a redrawn schematic of the thing. I have only the1/2 baseball card sized schematic, suitable for reading with a microscope.BTW, Allen Douglas in past years did some kind of reprint of the ( Japanese ) manual, whichhe most kindly sent me - and - it's the most useless manual i have ever seen in my life. Nopractical circuit information, no schematic. I probably/ possibly will get around to redrawing the schematic "sometime" in my upcomingretirement, but KA8TUR may have done the task already. If you find it so, i would like to get acopy also. It had occurred to me to possibly increase the top freq to 40M by maybe tapping the coilsdown just a bit.But that reminds me - K6DB ( S.K. ) did an article on this radio set for E-R a few years back.
I don't recall if the article showed the schematic - if you've not seen that, might be worth looking into.I am wondering exactly how KA8TUR modified his FT-243s to fit into the 94-5 domino-stylecrystals holder.-Hue
