[Premium-Rx] Drake MSR/FM-P Counter Card

[GandalfG8 at aol.com]

Hi John
 
Good luck with your search, but there could be an alternative if you can't  
find one, especially if you've got an otherwise complete receiver.
 
It's been a long time since I worked on an MSR receiver, but looking  at 
the MSR2 manual to refresh my memory this should be an  easy enough board to 
replicate.
 
Getting a one off PCB made, especially one as straightforward as this,  is 
quick and relatively inexpensive these days, but this particular board  
could also be an ideal candidate for the type of perf  board that comes with a 
fitted edge connector, either the version  laid out for DIL ICs or even just 
one with strips.
 
When laying out similar prototypes in the past I generally used a  Vero 
wiring pen for the onboard interconnections, as that tends to be quite neat  
and compact, but not sure if the pens or the wire are still  available. Single 
strand insulated wire links should also be fine  though.
 
Just a thought.

Greetings to all:
I am in need of a working counter card (A17)  for the Drake MSR/FM-P Marine
receiver.
The part number is 689-1700 and  it is used in all of the various MSR series
units, as well as, the DSR-2  series receivers. Further research indicates
that it is also used in the  older DSR-1 receivers. The same part number is
utilized for all of the  aforementioned receivers although the diagram
location numbers very from  model to model ie: A17, A12, etc.
I would truly appreciate the chance to  pick up a working card or any leads
that I may pursue, in order to, obtain  one of these cards. Kindly contact 
me
offline via my email address. Thanks  so much for your kind consideration.
Regards,  John.
