Just bought a FT-9 - anything to lookout for?
#4

Eric: OK - thanks. The picture shows the radio as found/bought. The link lead me to a better scan of the circuit and part list than I had before. So I'll have to swap all the caåacitors before trying anything. That will be on of the vacation projects this summer :-)

Arran: I have found some old brochures that shows that this version was for closed cars where the speaker was places just above the windshield in the lining under the roof (!). For open cars another version existed with build in speaker.
