I have several HH 46WX "Hand Held" Portables ; they have mostly the same features and same kind of display ! The 46's have 40 above & 40 below .
Can this be done to the 75WXST remote style radio ? I'd like to put one in "MOM's" Caddy >
She doesn't want a big black box mounted under her dash !
THANKS

Not to my knowledge , I don't think it is possible. I could be wrong , but I doubt it.

I'm with 307 on this one. Those radios were made for convenience, not performance. They've also been around for a while and I have seen absolutly no mods for them. Looks like what you get it what you see.

Aside from the channel mod, does anyone know the tune up details for the remote 75 WX ST?

Modulation?

Power?

Thanks...

Seems to me i was reading that the mod for this radio is the same as the 45-46.... you may want to peak at those mods and then look at your board and compare..... you may just hit the jack pot... if so you will go from 26.515-27.855 with a channel or to missing......
