- Here's what I did, guided by a Gordon West tape provided to
- me by Alinco to encourage me to buy a DJ-F1T (which I did,
- and am very happy with):
-
- Modifying Alinco DJ-F1T: Open the unit by removing battery
- pack, then the three recessed screws in metal back, and the
- recessed screw below the Xmit button. With unit face
- down and Xmit button to the right, hold the battery release
- button so that metal back will come out as you lift the
- right edge of the metal back. Imagine that it is hinged on
- the left. It is NOT hinged here, in fact there are two
- delicate ribbon cables you must be careful not to damage.
-
- With the unit open, you will see two wire jumpers, one
- red, one blue. Cutting the RED wire enables air band
- receive. Cutting the BLUE wire enables extended transmit.
- I suggest you don't cut the blue wire unless you have good
- reason to.
-
- Put the unit back together, and reset it by holding in the
- function button while you turn it on (goodby to anything in
- memory !) The extended functions are now available.
