Hello folks,

I'm trying to find out if the boards on my FT-101EE are proper
enough to work happily together with the radio.
I believe I have some that are okay, but possibly others that might not
be optimum.?

The radio's serial number shown on the back plate is 6N 241468
But there is another label on the side of the inside chassis (just below
where the crystal sockets are) that shows 246107.

I'm a bit confused in the manual where it tells what variation you have
based on S/N. Early, Mid, Late...etc I'm not sure where mine falls.

So here is what I currently have onboard:

BLANKER???? PB1582B
REG ? ?????????? PB1314A
MOD???????????? PB1184A
AUDIO????????? PB1315A
RF???????????????? PB1181B
LO-IF??????????? PB1183C
HF-IF??????????? PB1180

Do any of these look like they might be a problem if they're not
the right iteration of a certain board?

Thanks for any help

Thanks Fernando. Yes I have that chart?

My point is, My serial number (241468) doesn't seem to jive with the choices given on the chart for the EE.

The chart gives:

Early 15,000 and down

Mid.? ?15,001 - 20,500

Late.? ?20,501 & up
