galaxy saturn ground issue

#410043

Post by jerseyoutlaw »

hello, I'm trying to repair a galaxy saturn base that someone has screwed up bad, there is a black ground wire coming from point "41" on the slide switch board and I cannot find where its supposed to go from there, the only available schematic is vague with no legend on the tie points,

this wire grounds the frequency readout board, hopefully someone has the same radio and can point out the correct place this wire is connected to, chassis ground will work for this wire but I know that's not the correct spot, and if I tie it to other grounds I get counter noise, thanks in advance, hope this isn't to confusing of a question..

I don’t have one to check but I believe there is several jacks going from the front panel to the main board, on the schematic it is vague but should show a group of wires, look for a jack that has a open spot, it possibly goes there.
