Have done a mod I dug up from and old secret cb book that I have never seen anywhere else. Involves a mod to the AN 612 balanced modulator circuit. procedure is 1. Remove C 207 (47pf, Comes off AN612 pin 3 to ground) 2 Replace R206 270kohm (In series with vr4 sweeper leg to AN612 pin 1)with a 39K ohm resistor. NB I used a 56k in parallel. Had good results with better modulation reports, esp with amp on. had slightly lower peak, but better average modulation power levels and looked good on scope. NB: have already total npc mod etc to this radio incl tr24 removed,R131 was clipped on this in the past, I think this doesnt effect anything with tr24 removed anyhow and is ok left this way? I'd like a technical explanation of what this mod is all about if anyone in the know, is familiar with it. I have a idea , but welcome any comment? |
