Has anyone tried the optional 10hz display resolution mod for the kenwood TS430S ? The manual says it is o.k., but a site on the web says DON'T DO IT, It will read "jibberish" Any thoughts ? Thanks, Jim |

Unless your running CW why ?
I would not do it only because of the age of the radio ... If it goes POOF ! you might have a problem getting it fixed ....
I Have a TS-2000 and don't find the 10 hz number do much EXCEPT on CW and at 50 hz bandwidth you can't use the 100 hz jumps.
Enjoy it it's a nice radio ...

The mod is to clip the component next to R202 and BINGO, a seven digit readout ! |

I did it on my TS440S/AT and love it.I questioned whether it would be worth it or not,now I'm glad I did. It really helps on SSB too IMO.

The 706 will step that low, and I never have had need for it..

I know, but it is still cool to have all the digits available being used ! |
