[ICOM] IC-751A IF Shift Control: conversion to PBT

[Lee Mairs (SAG)]

I'm interested in why one would like to do this change.  It seems to me 
that I remember some sort of patent issue behind the change from PBT to 
IF shift, but it is way back in deep core last activated about 1988. 

Any other highly recommended mods for the 751A?

I have a 751A from that era that I use daily for Navy MARS nets.  I did 
the Wilcox fix for bad batteries years ago, and recently had the 
capacitors changed in the PLL section.
