After a little more searching, I have some more data!

RAN1 through RAN4 are the frequency ranges. RAN1 = 1-3.3 MHz, RAN2 = 3.3 - 
5.45 MHz, RAN3 = 5.45 - 9 MHz, RAN4 = 9 - 12.3 MHz and RAN5 = 12.3 -18 
MHz.  Your radio stops at 10.8 MHz (the IF) so it only goes to RAN4.

Connectors.  Verify this before you apply power. This is from a book for a 
different MICOM radio.  Most use the same accessories, so the pins should 
be correct.

The 15 pin connector: pins 1 - 12 are channels 1 - 12.  This is 
channelizing data, usually used by the tuner. A low on one of these pins 
indicates the selected channel.  The unselected channels should read close 
to 9VDC. Pins 11 and 12 should not be connected as this is a 10 channel 
radio.  Pin 13 is tune ( a low on this line reduces the power out of the PA 
to 10 watts for antenna tuning). Pin 14 is PA disable (a high on this line 
indicates the PA is disabled, transmitter unkeyed). Pin 15 is Tuner A+ (12 
VDC).  There is NO ground (return) wire in this connector.

The 6 pin connector is the Linear jack. Pin 1 is Linear PTT. Pin 2 is PA 
Disable. Pin 3 is Tune. Pin 4 is Ground. Pin 5 is A+ (hi power). Pin 6 is ALC.

The three pin connector is power.  This is a different type of plug from 
the one in my book.  From my book: Pin 1 A+ (PA lead) (red lead). Pin 2 
Ground (black lead). Pin 3 Ignition A+ (Green lead).

View these in TTY mode ( mono spacing Courier)

The 15 pin connector looks like this:

| 7   8   9 |
| 10 11  12 |
| 13 14  15 |

The 6 pin connector looks like this:

|--\/---\/--|

Hopefully this helps some more.
