Hey guys, its been along time since I delt with a Futaba Magnum Jr. and I have a range problem I cant get to go away on this newbie's boat/radio.
The thing is that I have a new boater that has an older boat and radio combo that we are trying to get to go for some laps. He had several problems with setup which I have rectified and the next thing is to fix the range problem with his radio equipment. We dont want to spend alot to get this going so he can get on the water and have some fun with what he has.
My question is can the old AM systems be re-crystaled away from the frequency they came with? His system is on 90 and he handed it to me on 62. I have some old crystals for AM but nothing on 90 and nothing I have has helped.
I just dont remember if you can go that far away if at all like our newer FM/PCM radio's.
I put my FM/PCM in it and away she goes but I really dont want to tell him "hey buy this radio and your set"
Any help appreciated!
