Dan, My apologies for jumping in!!!! I thought I saw where you had said that you didn't have it... and that one... I DO have.... because my son Tim has that radio!!!!

See if this doesn't have what you need......

49 years in 16 days.... if she isn't used to it by now...........

I wish it had the bracket... but... oh well..... And of all things.... "she" doesn't know I bought it yet. "She" doesn't know it is on the way..... I feel so.... dirty..... ;)

Just for giggles.....

Back to my hijinks.... I found a Midland 77-888 on Shop Goodwill. This was the exact model that my wife had in her car "back in the day". She actually used to use it a lot....but probably wouldn't anymore. It will take time for it to get here but, from the pictures, it is...

If the receiver and PA still work, it does sound like the audio path is good. If you have replaced the final and still have no transmit at all... I would look in the area of D10 right below the audio transformer. RCV/PA work so I would think that the transformer itself is good. In transmit...

Can I assume that AM transmit works?

CB-222 does have two listings in the index but seems to have only one section, so both index listings... (President Late manuf. and Uniden Washingston) are the same section and I think this is the one you want if yours is a three button.

<sidebar> Does anyone know when Henshaw's went out of business? I used to love getting a new copy of their catalog.....

I'm kind of "late to the dance".... but this is a place that often has many of the older original values in caps of all kinds... even electrolytics. Just sending so you will have the link available in the future. https://www.justradios.com/cart.html One other place I will send...

I am going to go out on a limb and say I doubt it. I just looked on QRZ.com and his log shows him making FT8 contacts on 2m on the 19th of this month.... as in.... 2 days ago.

And THAT has been the mystery to me!!! His last video started out looking like... he was saying "goodbye forever"..... Then he faded back in... to say he is not going anywhere... and to demo his new R&S CMA-180 tester. Then??? He went away forever!

Just "weighing in" one more time..... on the very last video he was showing off a new toy that he got..... a new transceiver service tester. He was talking about everything that it would do, everything that it would "automate"... he made it sound like a God-send. He also commented that...

Thank you for the kindness of getting those links to me! I really like the way that is put together.

I have not looked into this radio at all... but perhaps a VFO module could "save it"? If you can find one that will run the right frequency and "scotch it in there".

One thing I feel should be thrown in and @everybody!) if I am wrong... let me know it!!!!! But if you are a CB operator then your "fundamental" frequency is in the area of the 11m band/27 Mhz. Harmonics will only be multiples of that fundamental frequency. You won't be generating any...

I really like reading about this technique. Thanks!

One more thing to pay attention to.... the impedance of the input. Sometimes they are on the order of 1 meg. Those you can poke around fairly freely. SOME are 50 ohm (or switchable to 50 ohm). You have to be careful with any test equipment that has a 50 ohm input impedance. It will do it's...

Just one opinion here....... if you are planning on repairing/aligning? A frequency counter is absolutely essential. The lions share of radios you see these days is going to be PLL...which means you have an adjustable VFO. The closer you set THAT.... the more accurate your unit will be...
