It is the same as the clarifier mod in the RCI-2950...they both use the same board. |

When you modify the clarifier it will not track on the display (it will give you about 1.5 Khz shift either way) but you will find it useful in CB mode because the frequency cannot be adjusted. It is also eseful when using the rig mobile. You don't have to keep pushing the SHIFT key. First, locate the wire harness that runs from the clarifier pot to the circuit board. Just in front of where it plugs into theboard, you will see R-197 (this resistor usually has wax on it). Clip the top of the resistor. Now get a 6" piece of wire and solder it to the stub of wire sticking out of the board (not to the top of the resistor itself). Connect the other end of the wire to pin 3 of IC6. Pin 3 is the leg closest to the front of the radio. Next, locate D-59, just to the left of the clarifier harness. It is a 1N4148 diode. Cut the wire part of this diode to disable it. If realignment is necessary, use L27 for AM, L28 and L29 for USB. If you have any problems with close stations being garbled sounding, its because of front-end overload. Find R-49 in the middle of the board (100k resistor), and change it to a 33k resistor.
try this mod it worked on my 2950.I got it from Krazyhorse. |
