CLIP D-11, THE FERRITE INDUCTOR IN FRONT OF THE FINAL TURN IT OUT 3 1/2 TURNS, TO TURN THE DEAD KEY DOWN YOU'LL NEED A TIP 120 DARLINGTON TRANSISTOR, 103 POTENTIOMETER, AND A 16V+ 100UF CAP. TAKE THE TIP120 FACE FORWARD THE CENTER LEG ATTACHES TO THE (+) OF THE CAP THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE TIP120 GOES TO THE (-) OF THE CAP. THERE IS A JUMPER NEXT TO THE FINAL ON THE LEFT, CLIP IT AND ATTACH THE TIP120 TO IT WITH THE (-) TOWARDS THE REAR OF THE RADIO. SOLDER A 103POT.'S CENTER LEG TO THE LEFT TAB OF THE TIP 120 THE TWO REMAINING LEGS OF THE POT ONE TO GROUND AND THE OTHER TO THE GOLD LOOKING INDUCTOR IN FRONT THE FINAL. DIAL POT FOR SPECIFIED AMOUNT OF DEAD KEY AND WILL SWING TO 20-22 WATTS
