Sweet Jesus. It looks like the chassis has been setting at the bottom of the ocean for a few decades. I have seen rusty chassis before but that's horrible. I don't miss the days of working on basket cases like this. I would rather work on a half dozen lightning damaged repeaters or radios instead of that poor basket case. It's just a shame someone paid to have all that work done to a radio in such bad condition.
Howdy Mike, I have seen some basket case radios in my time but this one takes the cake. I have requested to return it for refund on behalf of my client so let's see how that plays out. It was one of those radios that the more you looked, the more you unfortunately found😂😂😂😂 hope your keeping well brother cheers Brenton vk3cm Tangambalanga North East Victoria Australia
Full of corrosion more than likely out of a boat we used them boat to shore in the 80,s as they were cheap as chips when they stopped working a nice one was put in its place. Now days we use mobile phones out fishing .that radio is toast.
these kits never work on fm it is not a digimax lite as i have 10 in front of me from Mac , the kit mite be still good but ,,need to put in something else to see ,wow that radio what a mess $1 for it lol :(
Wouldn’t bother Brenton she’s absolutely rooted it would be a complete waste of time and money you are a excellent radio technician but your expertise couldn’t make this radio sing people buy your radio’s from Brenton meadows and not eBay because you don’t know what you’re getting

@@brentonmeadowsvk3cm Doing good not working on basket cases like that anymore. 🙂 Mike KC3OSD
Ha neat, I still have one of those! And interesting mod with that little screen!
They were quite popular here in Guernsey. The peewee was very distinctive.
Oh yer what a must have a cb that goes from 1 meg to 100 megs ooow icom watch out lol😅😅😅
Wow I thought I had some bad boat anchors but this one seems to take the cake!
Nothing a good tech couldn't fix with a pair of longnose pliers, and a 10lb sledge.....

I am partial to a nice Hygain V, definitely worth saving but if you’re charging by the hour i guess it isn’t worth it.
That radio is for the bin.
50 cents 😂😂. Looks like a later model, it's a Digi max lite board he makes them in Queensland.
That chassis is so rusted, I don't think I have seen one so pitted, need a mig welder to fix that haha
How’s that DDS VFO getting the required 10 MHz and 20Mhz signals ?
I have no words !
Frankenradio the kind you have to avoid at hamfests
That frequency channel mod isfrom the states usa i have seen then on us cb RUclips sites.
The clarifier has been disabled as you have to tune it by the digital steps in the display.
That ones for the BIN
Wow what a hack job , only thing I'd use it for is possibly parts and even that is questionable, why fools modify such nice radios is beyond me.
give it back to him
Hard to understand why someone would invest so much time modding this radio considering it's poor cosmedic condition..😧..Regards from the Uk..

Not economical to repair 😢
Those trim pots look so rusted.
