BULLETIN # 944
MODEL: TH-205/TH-215
SUBJECT: VOLUME/SQUELCH CONTROL IMPROVEMENT
The transceivers mentioned above can be mechanically improved by adding
a bracket assembly to the volume and squelch controls. The bracket
assembly is being used in current production and is available for older
units from the Kenwood Parts Department.
BRACKET ASS'Y W05-0235-00
1. Disconnect the battery pack and antenna.
2. Remove the 7 screws from the back panel of the transceiver
3. Lift the front panel from the transceiver and lay it to the right side.
4. Disconnect the 2 flex cables and remove the 3 screws from the IF unit.
5. Pull the top panel off and then remove the IF unit.
6. Remove the knobs and black cloth from the volume and squelch controls.
7. Inspect the controls to insure they are mounted flush to the board.
If they are not flush, completely desolder and resolder the controls.
8. Insert the bracket over the controls and tighten the nuts (tighten the
nut on the volume control first).
9. Assemble the transceiver by reversing steps 1 - 6.
Time required for this modification is 0.5 hrs or less.
