Let’s MOD the Icom IC-9700 for Big Jim!

Let's MOD the Icom IC-9700 for Big Jim!

The Leo Bodnar ICOM IC-9700 Reference Injection Board allows locking the ICOM IC-9700 radio transceiver internal frequency reference, to an external 49.152MHz signal to allow better than 1 Hz stability.

http://www.leobodnar.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=107&products_id=352

Big Jim wants to do this on his radio, so let’s give him a hand to align and set it up. @FEPLabsRadio
