Re: converting Aussie to NZ am cbs, help please

hi kiwiaussie, if you convert the ax144 and still want to keep 27mhz in it youll need a 14.730mhz crystal .also if you want to go from 41 to 80 youll need a 15.810 xtal ok. both xtals mounted on a board pretty easy to do the mods ,thx hamguy2 nsw australia
