BULLETIN # 1038
MODEL: TH-78A
SUBJECT: Microprocessor Change
Symptom: Due to a recent rule change by the FCC it is no longer possible
to supply transceviers, or provide replacement microprocessors that would
allow a transceiver to receive in the 800 MHz band.
Corrective Action: The microprocessor program of IC5 has been modified to
prevent 800 MHz band reception. Production has been changed beginning with
serial number lot 510XXXX. Units produced after this point will not be
capable of 800 MHz reception.
Parts Required:
Description Old Kenwood Part No. New Kenwood Part No.
Microprocessor 75517GF-170-3B9 75517GF-257-3B9
Procedure: When ordering a replacement microprocessor you will be supplied
with the new version. Please make sure that you understand the limitations
of this new microprocessor with respect to NO 800 Mhz Capability.
