dude, you can go to RS and buy some blank circuitboard or bread-board to practice your soldering and that junk is like 50 cents.

Check your L2 inductor, near the command logic port.

I think the whole point is so he can practice on the real thing.

if you're just starting to solder find a broken radio and practicing removing through mount resistors. then when you get good at that go for the surface moutnt stuff like resistors and transistors. mosfets are surface mount so you better be good at soldering. or you could go buy one from the dollar store or something. im surrounded by them up here.

My post was mostly directed to wasuri, who is having range problems which usually indicates a bad L2 inductor.

Just because it doesn't look fried, doesn't necessarily mean that it is ok. The only way to know for sure is to measure it. Use a multimeter with an Ω check, or a continuity checker. Small inductors generally measure close to 0Ω (basically a short circuit). If it measures more than say 1Ω, it is bad. Both L1 and L2 measured as shorts (0.1Ω) on my board.

Ok, I learn a lot on this board.

would removing both L1 and L2 make it go further?

Does RS have the parts to replace the L1 and L2?

thanks

No, someone tried that, and it didn't work.
