reason i ask is because the one in the pictures is the same as the one in my ep but the website says its 26/27mhzFM
Yes... RX & module are "band" specific, they are tuned for a
certain band eg 27Mhz, 29Mhz, 40Mhz.
(they are not picky enough to be "freq specific", otherwise you
can't change the freqs within the same band, can you now?
)
Any band of same model RX they all look the same.
I too use various KO FM gear, now in both 27 and 40.
No they don't work when I swap the xtals wrongly, ie wrong
band of xtal not in its proper 27 or 40, RX or module.
They all gotta match up to work.
But no, feel free to test... I don't think it hurts the radio anyways
so there's no risk of damage. Just won't work until you match 'em.
(btw, I put stickers or texta the band onto the RX/module case.
Its damned easy to mix them when the spares usually don't have
xtals in them.)
