SS 158 EDX mosfet - Clarifier MOD.

[xlordo]

Hello ppl.

I have a clone for the ss 158 edx mosfet version (voyager 158 egtl DX) and im seeking about 4 weeks for a clarifier mod, so rx and tx always on the same frequency.

Someone knows how do it ? i will be grateful if someone can tell me.

Thanks!

To unlock the fine clarifier to track TX/RX, it's the same as a galaxy DX959. Here's a direct link with instructions.

Galaxy Radios DX959 Service Manual

R113 and D68 should be in the same locations on your radio as they are on the 959.

Let us know how you get on, hope this helps.

E Thirteen, thank you for this, I used this info to unlock the fine clarifier on my 99v2.

theres was two methods . is there any real difference between them. does either one
marry both clarifers together so only 1 is needed?

There's no difference. I just started using method one after using method 2 for a long time. Method one seems to more universal as some obtuse boards don't have the two jumpers in method two.

Shouldn't the radio have a slider right out of the box?

does on coarse tune, but fine tune is rx only, what o/p wants is for both fine and coarse to track rx and tx.

Yes, this can be done. Been doing it on these boards for several years. I'll post a writeup when I get home from work.

Incorrect this radio has the 690011D not the EPT069610Z like the 959 Any idea how to do this one?

What we've been doing is to remove the transmit-frequency trimmer pot. The 100 ohm resistor to its rear gets removed. A new 100 ohm 1/4 Watt goes onto the solder side of the pcb. The empty hole from the old 100 ohm resistor nearest the channel selector gets one lead of the new 100 ohm resistor. The other lead goes to the regulated 9 Volt rail along the front edge of the pc board.

Don't remember callout numbers for any of it. Been doing it from visual memory alone way too long.

As a rule this only disrupts the frequency setting at the clarifier's 12 o'clock position a little.
