Hi Everyone, I have searched all of the usual mod sites but can't seem to find this mod. I heard it may have been available in one of the Secret CB books. Does anyone know if this mod exists and where I could find it? Thanks for any info!! Scott CEF267 |

cut line between connector H6, pin 1 X44-1360-00 unit & connector 6, pin 4 X49-1140-00 unit. that is the mod i have from a now defunct website. only note with it is 'increase rf range (10 Mhz) (18 mHz) (24.5 mHz)'. i have no idea if that means 'to get those freqs' but you get general coverage xmit, or that mod ONLY gets those freqs. never tried it, never had an 830....best i can do |

Hi Pat, That mod is to enable the WARC bands - 12,17, and 30 meters. That's all I could ever find too. Thanks for the info. I have modded my TS-530S for 11m - it takes the place of part of the 10m band. Does anybody else have any ideas on an 11m mod for the TS-830S? Thanks!! |

How does the 830 work on 11 meters? Is it decent? Mikefromms |

Yes, excellent! Actually, I found a much easier mod for the TS-530 and 830. You only have to lift 1 wire and the 29 position on the band switch becomes 27. |

Unless you just want it for sideband on 11 meters, to me it is not worth the trouble as it does not do AM. I have one and it has great audio on HF. I get compliments all the time on my audio. HARVE UNIT199 CEF210 CVC18 KB0YVK

There is a guy in my town that converts non AM kenwoods to AM and SSB. He does a great job of it and they sound Fantastic on the air. If someone wants his number let me know. He also installs AM in the Collins radios also. |
