I have a Digital Siltronix 90 by Nomad radio for a Browning Mark 3. I’d like to change the color of the display. If I got a new frequency display is it simply plug and play? or would the new one have to be reprogrammed to match the Browning? If so does anybody have the steps on how to do this?

The display is made by SanJian. Their model number is PLJ-6LED. It's sold in four colors that I know of, red, blue, green and yellow.
Yeah, you'll have to set it for an offset of 10.695 MHz if you buy one new. Seems to me there's a YT video showing how. The VFO's output frequency is mixed with two other crystals in the transmitter. If each of those has drifted off frequency by a half kHz, the display would be wrong by 1 kHz. If you have an external counter showing the AM carrier frequency you can tweak the offset stored in the counter to compensate and get an accurate frequency display that way. A quartz crystal is literally a moving part, and the two 5 Mhz AM-mode crystals will exhibit some frequency drift after 10,000 hours or so. Those two crystals are running all the time, not just while you're keyed up. Every transmitter is different on this count.
Hardware hookup is plug and play.
