Recently dropped a FRS walkie talkie, which now transmits
but without any TX audio. I'm curious what's inside. The Harbor Freight security bit set has T8 and T10. And as Goldilocks said about the porridge, one is too small and one is too large. Torx sets are about $5 or less on Ebay, with the obligatory 2 week wait from Hong Kong. With a small allen wrench, and some time on the bench grinder, I was able to make an oddly shaped tip, which was supposed to be smaller allen wrench tip. Didn't work out as well as I'd hoped. But, it did remove the necessary screws. I also opened up a nonworking set I got off Ebay, which had corroded alkaline batteries. The contacts were beyond repair, or at least beyond my own abilities. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .. |
