Motorola Quantar Exciter Repair Part 2 - Repair and Testing 

I invested in a used Pace hot air desoldering system. Works great and when working on multilayer boards I use a new tip with a good reactive rosin. Gets all of the solder off.

Excellent video it's nice to see videos working on these rigs not many going around huge fan subs, straight forward thanks for this!

Good job

When you pulled the chip from the original socket, you can see the socket lifting up off the PCB in the video.

How would I be able to contact you about some Quantar repair tips that I am researching?...I have a lot of repeaters that have PA/RX fail. I am thinking about inversely swapping the exciter and control modules around until I get working units without having to strip each module down and do surgery like you have done here...

What model is the rf dummy load
