That's why if you want that option buy only radios that track xmit from the factory,simple,but costs more.

Cbs are type accepted units and as such cannot be modified and still retain warranty,10 meter radios are not type accepted and can be modified by a dealer and still retain warranty,the law applies to the cb at the date of manufacture,as for other non-type accepted radios the law applies to you the end user and whether or not you use it legally or illegally,the cb must remain unmodified to be type accepted.

Hey bob, I have a Northstar 9500 Base station and it has that dang Course and fine clarifier on it. Looking for a mod to open it up using one of the tuning knobs. Even a ten turn setup would be better that this thing. Any thoughts or mods. Any body have a schematic on this radio?
