| JAPAN RADIO CO. JRC NRD-525-535-545-345 User Define Charts |
As I cannot supply you with schematics or owners manuals for these sets (sorry). I do have the user define function lists for the NRD-525, NRD-535, NRD-345 and of course the NRD-545. So if you scare up one of these sets up in the used market and have no manual, at least you will have this information via my piles of papers. Be sure and visit the main page as the NRD-545 and NRD-345 are covered elsewhere on this site . Dave N9EWO.
