I recently got a tr-2200a that wasn't suspossed to be working. The
batteries are totally bad. I just wired it into a 12V car battery and
it works great. I'd like to know where to buy crystals and how to
change them.

thanks

As far as getting crystals, any of the old reliable crystal
manufacturers have the data to provide crystals for the frequencies you
specify. I used ICM ( International Crystal Mfg ) since the 60s, but
gravitated towards Sentry Crystal Mfg. Co in years later.... I think I
preferred the accents of their Southern Bells G. In either case, they
provide quality crystals, and there are many other sources too.

thanks for the info. I'd already downloaded the mentioned file. It
was not what I wanted. That file is a 2200G and mine is the 2200A.
There are enough differences to make a difference. I don't have a
tone knob on the radio but in the mods it says you can put a resistor
pair in and achieve it.

thanks
