Hi all, just got these mods, hot off the FAX!



Note:It is not lawful to monitor cellular or conventional mobile

      telephone conversations.



The 2026 has cellular frequencies deleted at the factory, but

restoration is the easiest ever! - clip one marked wire!  All you need

is a Philips screwdriver and wire cutters.



1. Turn the scanner upside-down and remove the four side screws

holding the bottom cover in place; pull the cover loose and set it

back about two inches out of the way.



2. Locate the small circuit board at the lower right-hand corner and

find jumper L201.  Cut it and slightly separate the break.



3. Reassemble the radio which now has continuous 806-956 MHz coverage

and 30KHz search increments in the cellular band.



*** I have not tried the above mod, but did acquire it from a

commercial radio dealer who is very respectable, so as always, proceed

at your own risk and realize that this will violate your warranty!



                                 Have Fun!
