[TenTec] Common Band Module Problems?

[Gary J FollettDukes HiFi]

In addition to the edge connectors, there are two coax connectors on the Scout modules.

They mate with a connectors in the radio.

If either is bent on either end (or broken) you will not get operation in receive or transmit.

I have repaired several of these.
