Hello all, I was installing a galaxy II that I picked up some years ago. I tested it out with the base antenna and it seemed to work fine despite the added "swing mod" which I don't really know much about, other than they're frowned upon from what I've read.
As I was hooking up the power cord, the jack pushed through the back of the radio (see pictures). I opened the radio and found that there's some coils and capacitors soldered to the pins. There is a loose wire, I can solder but I don't want to mess it up further. Also there is a chrome box inside attached only by wires. Otherwise it's just bouncing around in there which can't be good. Does anyone know of a repair shop in San Diego? There's a ham shop here, but they don't do much with 11 meter. Thanks much!
