Many thanks to all respondents to my original query, for their input 
especially Larry and Adam for bringing this problem to light.

I am disappointed but not so disappointed as I would have been to have 
damaged this rig!
The 756pro's built-in Voice Recorder (transmit) capability would have been a 
godsend here on 60m for late night SSB operation on that band without 
disturbing the household.

I may do the "general transmit" mod just to have access to the new Region 1 
40m band extension 7100-7200kHz although I do wonder if this could be 
achieved better by some firmwear changes such as maybe a PROM change or 
whatever dictates the difference in transmit coverage between Region 1 or 
Region 2 supplied rigs?

73 all and have a nice Xmas
Dave
