Fisher 1266-X One Board or Two?

[StanB]

The Fisher 1266-X comes in two versions. There is a one board and a two board version. I had to replace the volume control on my two board 1266-X. During the process, several of the leads that come from the Ribbon cable came loose. I was able to locate a schematic, and the pin numbers were indicated as numbers in square boxes. Many of the numbers were too blurred to make out. Many of the pin numbers that I could make out don't seem to match up to where they should go. Perhaps the schematic I have is for the one board version of the 1266. Has anybody run into this as a problem in the past?

I have found two schematics floating around the net. There is one that has a Green background and appears to be from FISHER. It has the initials of MEJ and is dated 10/5/93. This schematic is for the single board version of the 1266-X. There is a schematic that has no info as to the origin. It has a white background and diamond boxes with the numbers 1-7 in them. These represent the jumpers between the two boards.
Now for something crazy. I photographed my two board 1266-X before disassembling it. I've since made the repairs (the volume control shorted to ground on the case when I was pulling the boards out. I still had the batteries in the detector (BIG MISTAKE).
Now I have misplaced the photos of the boards and they are not going together correctly.
Can anybody help me by sending me a photo of their boards in a two board Fisher 1266-X? (Remember to remove your batteries first!)
This will be a big help to me.
Thanks,
Stan

pls send photos of your boards.

KT315,
Thanks a lot! But I found what I did wrong. I had the main circuit board installed upside down. I'll upload photos showing how the two boards are installed and are oriented to the front panel. Perhaps that will help someone in the future. (Probably me again.)
Now, If I can only find the knob for the volume control....

hi Eugene, have it... and even more... thank you. I am glad to see you being 'always on serve to help everybody' like as we are in USSR were been wellmannered... this is our hard Russian tradition - help everybody if one needs in your help. then we did help everybody in the world - Yugolslavia, Poland, Bulgaria, Mongolija, GDR, Cuba, Vietnam, China, but we ourselves were hungry and undressed... I do not remember who made these files and cloned 1266х... did not note... bulgarian, serbian one??
anyway waiting something new from Stan.

good luck to you and your family
