Those Hi-Gains were pretty dang good radios. Back in the 70s, I knew a few people with Hi-Gain mobiles and base stations.

You can add a Channel selector 3 And get 40 channels from it , from what I understand. and its suppose to be simple.

Hi Julian I own that same ,Radio, Picked up about 5 years ago, for nothing, I don't know much about electronics ,and would love to get it working, Now When I got this radio, It had a set of crystals ,In foam, They are for the right hand side, of the selector, I think That will give me 10mm band. Do you do work on the side. Thanks Brian

Hi Brian! Yes, I do radio work for folks now. Message me in Instagram and I'll get you squared away. Keep in mind it may not be economical to get it back on the air :) 73

@@JuliansRandomProject Is that even a PLL rig? Or xtal matrix? Or are there kits that will replace the xtal matrix with a synthesized signal?
