Original Message Subject: JR Tx...yes! sort of From:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Date:Mon, June 12, 2006 5:23 pm To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You'll find that the module from a new JR should fit. It is the Module that is post 1991 (AMA reg, not FCC) standards. Since it is the TX module that creates the RF Signal, a new module makes that old box of switches 'viable' and moral today. The RX' s on the other hand (PCM) are out dated and not safe as they are before the ABC&W design phase of JR's current designs (its their version of dual conversion)...and we switched to 50 new channels and gave up the old 12 that existed previously. I was slightly involved in that process way back then...so remember a little about it. But chances are it doesn't do what need anyway for today's open class sailplanesso just get a 9303, and have TX that will take care of all your RC airplane/heli needs for likely the rest of your soaring life. Keep in mind that switch components corrode as do the old wires inside from things like Black Wire syndrome (the insulation had a chemical that caused the wire to turn black and stop making contact with solder joints and crimps.

It handles so well that the local club members now has over a dozen of the glider versions for aero-tow and same plane design contests.

Re: [RCSE] What Happened to JR 9303 Radio?
If you actually read my post, you would notice that I did not tell how to give away the donation. I think it's great that Jr or anyone donates. IT WAS PUBLICIZED ON THIS SOARING EXCHANGE FOR THE 100th PLACE to recieve the radio. I was asking if it was discussed at the Pilots meeting of the different way it was going to be awarded. Your way of thinking would be to change the rules and tell anyone? CVRC changed it, not Jr as you stated. Speaking of ethics. At your clubs last event, Spring 2004 raffle. The two drawing tickets were looking at the names and throwing them back in the tub. Sometimes two or three times. This went on for 5 - 10 minutes until everyone was yelling about it. Then your club stopped this practice. Yeah, I WAS THERE AND WITNESSED IT MYSELF. Also I'm sure some of the items awarded was given to Ed Lockhart until 3/4 of the way into it, someone noticed that there was another person named Ed there. They called Ed Lockhart until they noticed a different last name. I never said anything until now. Flame yourself Mr. Carbon It was for JR to determine what they wanted to do to give a prize away. I you can't always believe what you read, here or otherwise. If there was a change in JR's > thinking on how to distribute the donated item, thats their right, not > yours.
