This is similar to a Superstar 3900. The band switch is 6 banks of 40 chs, utilized with the help of the "hi/lo switch. With the hi/lo in "hi", and the band switch in the A/D, that's the regular 40chs. The other problem is likely a cold solder point, should be an easy repair, just finding it! (or them) |
