- In the May 1989 edition of Popular Communications is a

- PRO-34 Scanner Modification
-
- In regard to the information presented (March Issue) on the
- handheld Radio Shack PRO-34 scanner, my own observations on the
- modifications have been:
-
- 1. To restore missing 800 MHz frequencies, remove D-11.
-
- 2. To add 66 to 88 MHz (European Coverage), install a diode at
- D-9.
-
- 3. D-10 must remain in place for full 800 MHz coverage.
-
- 4. If a diode is added at D-13 it cuts out aero band, also seems
- to affect 800 MHz channel spacing.
-
- 5. D-12 added dosen't seem to have any affect.
-
- 6. Only D-10 and D-11 are factory installed.
-
- I wish to thank you for a fine and informative magazine. I
- have had much reading enjoyment.
