Subject: update to TM-732 Mod
Original from K0ZL to MODS
BEWARE! As with many of Kenwood's current products, Kenwood has changed the
microprocessor program in TM-732 to require a DIFFERENT beyond-MARS mod than
is discussed in a recent edition of a popular mod handbook.
Refer to the illustration in said book. Instead of removing W1, you need to
PUT IT IN (use any small piece of wire). Then, move R20 R19 position, AND
ADD ANOTHER 0 OHM JUMPER TO R22. R21 and R20 will be clear of jumpers when you
are done.
The air band mod requires a 22pf chip cap at C348; I used a small 22pf disk
cap with success. Just be careful when soldering it in.
Please remember that using this radio outside the ham bands is illegal! This
mod is for out of country or laboratory use only.
