simon,is there any news on whether the later models of jackson 2 will have the output fault fixed before leaving balaruc?
I know what the fault is, and what causes it. It is my belief that later models will not have it, BUT if it does then back to the supplier and then sent to Joel and Cam who will make the magic and the radio will work one more time.

And for the mod:

bottom cover off
left handside when front facing at you, small white wire (cut it)
move jumper to the other position

Gives you the exports, but only 4w till you make the power mod too

Yes i know where it is, and its on the top of board. Hans is the man that knows 1000% and not me. But when replaced it makes around 2.4 - 2.8khz and not the legal 1.7

Take it to the dealer and let them fix it in France unless all modded then the warranty is void and lost. Not heard of this fault on the radio so far
