Dead Maratrac Receiver
Posted: Fri Nov 21, 2008 1:29 pm
This is the Maratrac that some poor soul transmitted into.
I replaced the two SMD caps and the evaporated pc trace .,.. result,
radio still deaf as a stone.
Thinking the Schottky SMD protection diodes were bad, I removed it ,,,
result, still stone deaf.
At this point, I give up. Anyone have a Maratrac with a dead transmitter ?
Or anyone need a good transmitter ? It's the 10 meter split too.
Everything except the receiver front end works.
