No, what happpened to me was entirely my fault. I knew that there were
2001D's out there without the Air band, but I didn't know that there were
versions without USB/LSB. All the seller did was say it was a 2001D in
excellent condition, and posted an accurate photo that showed the lack of
Air band button and the missing USB/LSB buttons. If I looked carefully I
would have asked questions BEFORE I bid.
What you got was the version for Saudi Arabia, it lacks SSB, Air Band,
and also has some holes in the HF coverage as well. If you can find
(or purchase), the 2001D/2010 service manual, you can get those
features back. They have been disable by installation or, by removal
of jumpers.
