Hi Guy,
I have installed both the power supply mod and the Audio mod in two of my
R-4c's in the same serial number range and can say that there is a big
improvement in the Audio. The high frequency back ground noise is gone as well as
the long term listening fatigue. Of all the mods out there, these two are the
most beneficial. The audio resembles that of a R-4B in quality. Also, the
PTO is more stable because the heat from the Audio output transistor has been
removed from behind the PTO area. This reduced the warm up drift from almost
a 1 KHz to 200 Hz or less depending on ambient temperature.
