so with these chips, i managed to make the tompolk PLL work with 13.8V. no such luck with the SStran 4 chip PLL on 5 volts. since i found that unsoldering components also ruins the PCB trace, im gonna just remove everything in the PLL and jumper in the tompolk PLL since that's a cheaper alternative to giving SStran $30 bucks for the privilege rectifying the fact that the original chips that came with this are junk apparently. no, i did not install any incorrect values. i've more than quintuple-checked all of that, and i've had this dead transmitter for literally a decade and have tried multiple times to get it going on the correct freq. it sucks that it's gonna be ugly, but that's still better than not working at all
