22. YOU’RE NOT DONE YET
.. We need to fold down the front panel to have access to a
circuit trace, so remove the 2 screws on the bottom front & one on each side.
23. With the unit facing you, fold front panel down towards you. See two circuit
boards, 8446 & B447A. Notice a circuit board with wires soldered to it. (8447A). See a
PURPLE
wire soldered to the board ... follow this trace until you come to the first
connection off the trace.., with a knife, remove, cut or sever this connection point from
this trace.
24. Put the front panel back on. Adj ALC pot on rear panel as you would on the other
bands.
