I've seen that Great Planes ElectriFly Rx's split the frequency band into
two parts Tuned to either Low band (11-35) or High band (36-60).  which is
odd since these Rx's will automatically select the shift of the Tx.  (Course
since I'm no EE maybe it's not odd at all!)  Since I have two Tx's at
channels 46 and 21, this is a PIA.

My question is: do the current crop of JR Rx's split the R/C frequency band
in parts as does Mr. Wales JR NER-627XZ 7 channel PCM receiver?  Also do any
of them select the proper shift of the Tx in use?

To expand on the previous answer given, these receivers are `tuned' to
give best results in the band of frequencies given.  If you put in a
crystal for say 72.860 or so, it would probably still work, though
you'd probably have reduced range.

I don't know if this means that the `high band' and `low band'
receivers have slightly different components, or if they've just
adjusted them a bit differently.  In any event, it's probably best to
stick within the range of frequencies listed.

Totally different things.  The positive or negative shift has nothing
to do with `high' or `low' part of the 72 mHz band.

Don't know.  I know Futaba seems to do it now with most of their
receivers, but I don't know about JR.

Though I'm a bit surprised that Great Planes is doing automatic shift
selection, since I believe they're pretty much in bed with Tower and
Futaba ...

| Also do any of them select the proper shift of the Tx in use?

I doubt it.  JR and Futaba are the `leaders' in the market, and they
don't seem to see much value in making their equipment work with each
other.  The smaller players -- Hitec, Airtronics, GWS, etc -- do see
the benefit, and often make equipment that can work with either
positive or negative shift.

(Which is one good reason to avoid Futaba and JR, and buy the other
guy's stuff.)

Try Radio South in FL. They rechanneled my RD6000 Tx including XTAL for $32.
They packaged it securely for return too.
Good people and they answer their own phones. Ask for Tony.

Does anyone know where I can send my JR R600 in for repair?  It
sat up on Mt. Hebo for a month inside a Zagi during the early
Oregon spring and now doesn't work.  It was stuck in the top of a
tree.  Mother Nature was kind enough to help me get it down, but it
took awhile.

I just put a new JR 649 S-PCM rx in my Amethyst, $159 with the xtal from 
horizonhobby.com

I use this rx in all of my open class / F3J models.

The non-PCM is a little cheaper.
