[Icom] Article on improving IC-765 AGC/Audio

[Tony Hwang]

Hi,
If you're mostly on CW,
tracking side tone is another nice one but you'll have to make a small
board to mount things.(there is plenty of room inside). PIN diode mod.
Yours being early one like mine, there are couple more like tuner
stability. Mine is fully loaded. Has all the optional filters, voice
thingy. PBT mod is probably the first thing should be done.
