I wonder if someone had been in there before? The missing ground connection probably should have been found in the factory final quality assurance but may have been overlooked? The good news is the OM has his rig back and it should work for many years to come! 73 - Dino KLØS
@@PapasDino Dr Dino, when i think about the manufacturing process it´s logical: One guy takes the SMPS and installs it including "all" connections. The next process measures the grounding of all components - and that´s ok because the SMPS is mounted with metal screws and the TRX works! No Problem found ... hi.
The good thing about having the equipment, doc's, parts and most importantly the foundational knowledge and experience is, not every project is difficult. However, the more difficult projects will be here soon enough... Hi hi 73, Glenn WA4AOS
Beautiful radio and nice repair
An interesting and rare radio that needs modification immediately after purchase. Thank you for showing it us.
The quality of this video is excellent.
Thanks
A friend of mine says there are 2 types of plastic. 1. Breaks immediately 2. Breaks later 👍
Ha! Yes!

My confidence in the factory quality assurance is limited; i´m sure this ground connection was never installed.
@@dl7majstefan753 That's interesting as I'd always thought of JRC as a solid manufacturer...

We all deserve an ‘easy’ project now and then 😊
Agree!
Nice fix!
Hallo Opa!
Nice trouble shooting

No doubt a good radio, but with just a single receiver, not a serious radio.
