Just Picked up a 42-350 AM/FM/SW Radio today!
#10

Quote:>I was wondering how hard it would be to re-tune the IF/tuner on this radio so that the FM Band on this radio could pick up the Modern FM Band since it was originally set up to receive the old 42-50 MHz FM Band.

Hi Terry, I saw that post, and I think I could probably make that "converter" but the problem is where would I get the metal chassis for making this beast? Also how does this "converter" get its power from the radio's existing circuit?

Also I was curious as to whether or not something like what's pictured below could be made to transmit at the old 42-50 MHz FM Frequency Spread?
