Hi Everyone,
I realize I'm coming late to this particular party, but we are having the same issue. We need a schematic to a Johnson Messenger 223. We're not new to radios or forums, but we're new to this particular forum, so please forgive me if I fumble around. Can someone one please please pleeeeeeezzzzzze tell who has a schematic for this radio or would one of you be so kind as to sell or share with me a copy of one that you have?

Thank you for your time and consideration and for the help everyone provides to everyone!

do a search and you should be able to find one. I just did the search and on another forum they have the owners manual and a schematic posted.

If it’s what I call a “Keeper”, look for the Sam’s Photofact for the radio, think it’s #53 but best check. Search for them, they are all over the web.

I'm flummoxed. I can't see where or how to send a PM. It seems like every forum is a little different. If the moderator can send my email in a PM to Sonoma, that would be great. Thank you all!

Hello BiState,
The reason you don't see the PM (talk symbol) under an avatar is you are a new member and need to increase your post count before this will happen. It is a security measure setup by the forum to ward off spammers. Don't worry, keep posting and we'll let you know when you can PM other members. Any questions, please ask.
You could start with posting an intro here, [Please login or register to view this link] , so everyone can say "Hi", thanks.
