Thanks Lou ... I'll pull my Service Manual
out soon and compare the schematics.

I noticed that W8JI is offering a "kit" but
does not include the original MP. 

I agree the mod seems to be easy, and well
worth the time.

To add to the other comments, I also added
the INRAD roofing filters to my original MPs
here, and they do appear to help.
