President Jackson Low AM RX
Posted: Thursday 10th Feb 2011, 6:51
Radio Make and Model: President Jackson
PCB Number: 042AB
PLL Number: 145106
Test gear available: DMM, O-scope, Freq counter,
Symptoms: Radio has no AM RX. No static only very slight hissing noise. AM does TX.
What is working: USB and LSB work perfect.
What has been tried: I looked for cold solder joints, but found none.
Did it suddenly happen ?: I received the radio in this condition.
Anything else that may be of help?: It looks like the radio has had some work done to it. It has a HI-LOW power switch in the back and some of the 47uf 10v caps had been replaced.
I have read a few threads on the forums and have tried to locate some components,but I am not that familiar with this radio. If someone could give me the locations on the pcb for the overload diodes, transistors and caps that should be checked and replaced, I would greatly appreciate it.
