RV2 for modulation

Which mods are you looking for?

Swing mod for this radio from another web sight... Replace R 87 with a 200 ohm resistor, on the bottom side install a 470uf cap across R 87 , make sure the negative side is to the right with the radio facing you .. good luck !

Problem with swing mods is over modulation. They look GREAT on a modulation meter but on a scope you can see bad peaks and flat topping, so, be careful and set the mic gain on the front of the radio for 90-95%.
