ARLA/CLUSTER: Kenwood TMD 700

[Nuno Lopes - CT2IRY]

Aqui vai mais uma do mesmo, para expandir o TX.

 KENWOOD TM-D700A Extended TX MOD (easy 3 steps)


Just received my new rig, neither the supplier nor Kenwood had the mods available to date.
	1. Remove the bottom cover, 5 screws (not the speaker side).
	2. Locate and remove "W601" (chip resistor) and "W602" (green wire). They are located within 2 inches of the optional VS-3 voice synthesizer board.
	3. Reassemble radio and after power-up, press the reset switch on the front of radio.
Here is your new TRANSMIT range
136.000	- 174.995
400.000	- 469.995 
This is the RECEIVE range (mode selected).
118.000	-  135.995
136.000	-  199.995
200.000	-  299.995
300.000	-  399.995
400.000	-  523.995
800.000	-  823.990
