FT101EE Mystery cut wire


 

Inspecting my 101EE, I discovered a wire that apparently at some point got snipped. I cannot see anything that looks like where it was originally supposed to go. It's located under the PB-1092 "TRIMMER B BOARD", and the remnant wire is connected to ground.

On another note, while looking at PB-1092, I see that there is no associated C107 that the schematic shows parallel with TC9. All the other trimmers on PB1092 have their respective fixed value cap.? TC9 is associated with trimming the 15m band.

Any idea what may be going on here?

Thanks...!

Hi Mike,
The FT-101EE didn't come with a speech processor. Possibly the wire was left for adding the processor later on.

Hi Roger, I dont think it is/was for the speech processor. My EE came pre wired for the user to install an SP if desired. All my SP wires are brought up to where the board would be installed.
