The below was copied from an Army Radios forum about the Type 889:
It is 20-50 MHz, FM, using 4 rotary decade switches,
the last switch does, 000, 250, 500, and 750 khz.
It is transistorised, has indiviual internal cast modules, discrete components, 10.7mhz IF, about 1980 vintage.
Front panel in English, 28vdc in, has a 28 to 5vdc switching powersupply, (noisy), so I assume the logic is TTL.
It has an OUT of LOCK light on the front panel, so I assume it has a PLL synthesiser.
Has a SQUELCH control, so possibly FM.
HF output:
- 3 and 20 W
- Modulation:
- FM
- Channel spacing:
- 25 kHz
- Frequency control:
- Synthesizer
Main front connector (left)
1 and 2 joined +28vdc in (1 amp on rx, 2 amps on tx low power)
3 and 4 joined ground
Main front connector (right)
1 no connection
2 ground
3 PTT (ground to go into transmit)
4 audio out (will drive a speaker)
5 mic (I think, but not tested)
