When I read your response I said, "Oh no". I was thinking that I had mad
an
expensive mistake. However, it is an ESP2. I am glad it was just a typing
mistake instead a purchase mistake. (g)
I soldered a diode into the B position and started twisting the dial.
Every
time I started from, say channel 1, the next time I rotated the dial to
channel 1 again I was still on the normal channel 1.
Got any Ideas?

Has anyone performed the Frequency Mod as outlined on the CBTricks web
site.
I performed the mod as shown there but I can twist the Channel knob
until
I
wear it out and it still only works on the Normal channels. I hate to
get
beat when all that has to be done is to add one diode. (g)

info..........Midland............77-255ESP
You listed your model as 77-255ESP, cbtricks mod is for the 77-255ESP2
model.
I'm not familiar with that particular Midland model. I'll assume you are
using a freq counter to confirm that the mod does not work as the mod states
it will not show on the LCD which band you are on. Also check to make sure
that the diode is not reversed and no bridged solder joints. Other than that
I haven't a clue. Good luck.
