SOURCE: no transmit rci 2990

Check the RF output transistor, usually heatsinked to the inner chassis, microphone wiring needs to be checked for breaks since it is part of the circuit, sub another if possible.

SOURCE: rci 2990 will not key up.

Bad or incorrectly wired mic (broken wires in mic or cable) OR transmit circuit has failed.

Someone with a Dummy load/watt meter can test this safely.

My rci 2990 lost audio but still has mod. and transmits but no receive audio

I think you will find the problem is in one of the microphone wires. The switch for TX/RX is in the mic, and if the RX wire opens up, you will not get any receive audio.

Rci 2990 won't keyup

If on all modes check the mic first to see if wired right or wires broken--this should have am-fm-lsb-usb---which works or do not work.

Rci-2950dx 4 pin microphone wiring schematics

you can't because of the up/down buttons on the mic. the 2950 is a 6 pin and the d-104 is a 4 pin. If you can figure a way to eliminate the u/d switch then go for it. there is a wiring diagram on www.cbtricks.com

Galaxy saturn turbo cpu board

  • These boards are hard to find. If any place stocks them new it is Maycom http://maycomcomm.com/ I have bought lots of Galaxy boards from there.

  • I have also gone chicken hunting before and just start randomly calling CB shops and see if they have one for sale from one of their parts radios. One time I could not find a heat sink anywhere and they were going for $25 new if one did pop up somewhere. I landed 4 like new radio heat sinks with hardware shipped for $10. So this method can pay off with some persistence.

  • Also the board out of a Galaxy 2527 or an RCI 2990 will work as well. Ranger often stocks these parts too you just have to already know this. So give them a ring too http://www.rangerusa.com/ and ask about the RCI 2990 board. Of course I recommend you exhaust all options for the OEM board first.

  • Hope this helps.
