Ok ... let's see if this helps ... Comparing Page 72 of the owner's manual
with page 3-11 of the MP "Technical Supplement" ...

The two layouts are the same ... Huh ? Turn the diagram on page 72
upside down and it lines up with the layout shown in the "tech manual"

Also I added the MODE to the VR68**'s listed below as per the book ...

That help ?   73 Bill AA4NU   aa4nu@raider.raider.net
