MISCELLANEOUS
Manufactured:Malaysia, 2019-2021 (Discontinued)
Main PCB: EPT690012D by Ranger
Single sided with through-hole components
Sub PCBs:
Additional info: Built-in 25 A switch mode power supply. This radio uses four "RT1" MOSFETs in
the final stage. Question is; are these just sanded down and restamped IRF520's
or similar? Tsk tsk Ranger for playing that game.
