subject: YAESU FT-212RH:MODIFICATION

Hi Rob Dennis, hope you are having a nice day
PW>> but finish opening up the rx. (wx sats among other things)
RD>  Paul if you can get the MARS/CAP mod info just reverse it.
RD>  The Yaesu FT-212RH should already have the wide band receive in it from 
RD>the factory and all you need to do is reverse the MARS/CAP TX mod to get
RD>2m TX only.
 The only mod I've found so far has been the 132/180 mod. Receive on
the 212 right now is 140.000 to 173.995. Actually I can't see much point
having the rec go any higher. It might be nice to get the audio for 
ch.7 and ch.8, but why? :>  Dropping down the other way otoh...
 IIRC, most of the wxsats sit around 136/138, and that's something
I can use the info from.
RD>  If you can't find it let me know and I'll see if I have it here 
RD>somewhere and send you a copy via netmail ro E-mail.
 Will see what turns up, although I imagine I'll end up giving you
a shout.
RD>  I collect modification info as it always helps to know how the 
RD>modifactions are done for a given chassis,to be able UN-do them after
RD>someone goes playing around in a radio.
 Ayup, I've a power mod for the RCI-2950. And while it looks like
it should work, something about it just doesn't feel right.
If it were a used rig, I'd be wondering just what they were thinking
and how do I fix the fix.
 One thing I always try to get for anything I own is the oem
service manual, or a good copy. (hehehe.. I've even got the one
for the tv.) ;>
