Expansion
This one simple modification will work for all
Texas Ranger 300-600-900 Series models.
1. Remove covers from radio.
2.
On the main PCB, locate J33. (See below)
3. Locate wires on
pins marked "P5"(yellow) & "P6"(grey).
4. Cut wire
on "P5" (yellow) and install a SPST switch in line.
5. Cut wire on "P6"
(grey) and install a SPST switch in line.
NOTE:Using two of the function switches available on the
radio will eliminate the need for two new switches to be installed and
mounted.
For example, on the TR-696F Mobile, if you do not need the
CH19/OFF switch, simply wire it so that it is always off, and use this switch
for P5. You can then do the same with Dim/Brt switch, wiring it so that the
display is always bright, and use this switch for P6.
This modification will result in the following frequencies
(Lowest frequency = 26.695.......Highest frequency = 27.965)
