5100 Parts Needed
Posted: Mon Dec 28, 2009 10:17 pm
I am looking for a VHF RF Board for a 5100 Series Radio.
I have the following parts available if someone needs:
Main front PCB (board is for 380-470 MHz and includes IMBE, AES and DES Encryption)
Good as new 380-470 MHz RF Board
(If someone has a VHF that they wanted to convert over to UHF, all that needs to move over is these two boards and you are good to go... Somebody wanna trade??)
Basically I took a New Old Stock, 5100 Version 1 UHF and stripped the case, in the process taking the DSP board with the case so that I could house a VHF FPP 5100 in it that had a damaged case and was showing DSP Fail. Well, everything went well until I swapped everything over in the case just to learn that everything worked ok except my receiver was very deaf on VHF. when I looked at the board it looked as though it may have been worked on at some point, but without a service manual, there is not much I can do in the way of troubleshooting. So now I am kinda wishing I never undertook the project to get a 5100 VHF working as I sacrificed a fully functional UHF. I guess I could swap everything back but I want to see first if someone could help me out with getting a VHF radio back on the air.
Anyhow, looking for the RF Deck from this radio on VHF.
Hopefully someone can help.
