So I have one of these come in for repair, deaf across all bands I have the service manual for this and will get to that in due course. The radio has had a hard life before coming into possession of current owner / client. I need to locate a pair of rotary encoders (volume main and sub) part number J62800138 its a commonly used encoder across a range of vertex radios.
There may not be any point in proceeding with the repair unless I can source a pair of these and currently for a part that must have cost pennies the only sources I seem to able to find are in China or the US and are costing upwards of $30 - $40 per unit. See below
