High or Low? band
Hi folks. I don't remember in the past dealers selling HIGH or LOW Band Crystals for the receivers, I have a ,
Futaba PCM fp-128dp
8 Channel Narrow band
Dual Conversion
Receiver and I can't remember what crystal was in it..
Now , I want to start using it again,
Is there a way to tell if its high or low band ? before I order
a set of crystals?
Thanks For any help!

This link should explain it for you

So basically, if your receiver originally came with a crystal on channels 11-35 then you need a low band crystal. If the channel was originally 36-60 then you need a high band.

To absolutely sure, send the receiver in for service and have them tune it for whatever band you decide you want to be on. This way it won't matter what crystal was originally installed.
