Gentlemen: I fear this topic will drag on for many more days and at this point, any further discussion is "beating a dead horse.". The information has been helpful, we have the Inrad mod. and/or the W8JI mod. How about each individual make his/her own decision whether to modify or not to modify and close this topic. No right or wrong here but, enough is enough. HNY 73, Bob K3UL
