Yes, you can find them by comparing the January 2010 schematics 
to previous schematics.  The changes are similar to the W9AC mods 
but they involve scaling resistors instead of capacitors. 

The changes are not necessary if: 1) you use high impedance 
headpones and 2) you don't care to create multiple "false 
carriers" in ESSB operation (extended low frequency transmit). 

The "low frequency response" modifications are strictly for 
extended response below 100 Hz.
