Setting it to 125 MHz Gently press the tip of the soldering iron on the ends of the pins until you can free them from the board. Lift the pins SLOWLY with your exacto knife or jeweler's screwdriver. Now take your wire and run your 3.3V lead. There are many places to solder this to, as the board has spots labeled "+3.3V" with an arrow pointing to traces. Now run your +3.3V to pin 116. Find a good grounding spot (I used a screw) and run your negative to pin 112. Gently solder the two wires to the two pins. Carefully re-assemble and try it out. |

Why not 187 MHz? When I set mine at 3.0X, it would shut off after a few seconds and it would reset the power supply for about 5 minutes. It didn't kill mine, but it may kill yours ;-). |

Dealing with the heat.... | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Although it doesn't get too terribly hot, it can get pretty toasty after a few hours. You can find your own creative way to take care of this, or leave it as is. |
