I've got a blown capacitor in the power section of my mk1. Right next to the barrel plug is C126 I can't tell for certain but it looks like a 33uf tantalum. Does anyone have the schematics or a good photo of that capacitor?

Not bad for a non-affectionado. One thing I must point out though, is the Android app continues to work from Android 8 all the way up to now on Android 16, currently on my Pixel 8pro. A copy of the app is included in the image installed by the BigD

This looks interesting: Interesting indeed. I have ordered the middle of the three options. The top of the line has additional features I will never need, the middle version checks off all the boxes: Backs up files in use; Has master/Incremental/Diff

Tony, Thanks for the info!! I have schematics for several versions of the D-104. The one I currently have is the G model. Just a bit of info, the Model # D-104 pertains to the 'head'. The stands are noted differently Mine is an early, non-amplified

I figured an update might be in order here. One of AA Wireless's many, many configuration options is the ability to put the AA Wireless box to sleep when the car turns off. This should probably be the default setting. Enabling this "sleep"

So far, I'm seeing some things on the internet which are homemade interface boxes which convert a 4-pin CB-radio mic plug into something you can then plug into your computer. Such a thing would work for any CB radio mic, not just the D104. There are
