I would appreciate any information regarding their linears, specifically
the
C500X. Any mods? Any way to get 10M coverage? Reliability. Service. I
understand the company had some problems and has reopened but no longer
does Ham gear.

HI guys, I have an Alinco DR-592 that I modified by cutting to red and
blue wires in the control head. I can now switch to aircraft freqs. but
cannot hear anything. I've listened on another radio at same freqs. when
there was activity, so I know it was the Alinco that was not recieving.
HAs anyone else done this mod, and has it worked?
Thanks, Terry

Subject: TM-733 extended RF mod.
To: ham-equip@ucsd.edu
I did the extended RF mod (remove R414) on my Kenwood TM-733 yesterday
and it works great. Will tx from 136 - 174, and about 415 - 465.
The design engineers at Kenwood REALLY have a sence of humor. When
resetting the CPU after the mod the radio plays a little musical jingle!

Until recently, it certainly looked like the Yaesu FT-530 was the one
to beat. But I think if I were going to buy a dual-bander today, (and
indeed, I have been thinking about it :-) I think I'd go with the new
Kenwood TH-79A. Frankly, the alphanumeric display, which lets you
program in names for the frequencies in the memories looks like a
real winner. Too, I think I've always thought the Kenwoods have had
somewhat nicer cosmetic design. Price of a 79A should be in the same
ballpark (maybe +$25) as the other units you're considering if you
shop carefully.

I have both radios . . . and the ICOM is up for sale! The ICOM looks
nicer than the 530 but that is all. The ICOM has terrible audio on
receive (due to the lack of speaker), the buttons are too small to hit one
and a time, the display is poor in good light and worse even with the
built-in night light, the small antenna is next to a dummy load.
The 530, to my mind, is a much better radio, while it may not look as
sexy, it is much more user friendly to use and program.

All of them new within the last 5 years, except 148.15 and 143.9.

Do they still use the 26.620 SSB anymore? Pennsylvania gave it up almost
entirely years ago. FM HT's have teeny weeny antennas; 11m radios had long
ugly ones which tended to break when you were walking through the woods.
