I second this.  It looked intimidating, but in fact, I was able to do it ALL
including the AGC mod, after dinner one evening.

first step was the hardest for me, and I finally chose to unscrew the two
screws that hold the fan assembly to the heatsinc, it was all downhill from
there!

EVERY report I have gotten since then was, "the keying is perfect," so i
hope that encourages you.  It is so nice to be on CW and get good keying
reports.

With a stock MP, it sounds fine when tuned in, but tune off to the side and
you still hear the clicks far after no longer hearing any tone at all.
