Nagai superstar 3900 freq plan p!ease

Post by original45 »

Recently bought a 3900 Nagai I believe same as ss 3900 .has a red channel display a,b,c block and a high low switch.

I don't yet own a freq counter and am unsure where these blocks abc go and obviously then where again with high low switch.
Not yet located a 10kc switch either or may not be one.

Could someone please point me in the right direction 're a freq chart plan so I can navigate.
Thank you

It was made by Ranger (for Nagai) . Manufacturing country will be marked on the back. Taiwan or Malaysia.

Thank you , nothing marked on back 're country of manufacture which I was surprised about.
A couple series numbers that's it.
I found it strange it had dimmer printed under abc band switch but no dimmer and appears to have cw but it's not printed on bezel .

Really no expert here but seems to have a fair receive, quite audio so far but the board does look well made very clean .
Will need a 're alignment as it's slightly high usb and lsb is no better in fact worse in told.

Going to look see if theirs a owner's user manual I line latter to ptintoff although didnt find one yesterday.
Swr can switch is duff too.Will pull out feel loose put takes 5 mins to get it back in again .grrr.
Cheers all.

If there's nothing on the back , then it's probably Malaysia . Look for the Ranger pcb number on the solder side . EPT3600XXX. Might be a 13 , or 14B . You can get the date of manufacture (more or less) from the PLL , or other ICs . WWYY . Example . "2593" will be week 25 of 1993 . I'm not 100% sure of the exact switch of factories , but anything +1994'ish is Malaysia .

The DIMMER is common here . The radios weren't allowed to have the bands marked when they were imported into Spain . So the decal was either changed , or a sticker marked "DIMMER" was put over it . The sticker is mostly on the Presidents .

Malaysia. The power connector at the back is a giveaway too.
