[Kenwood] MARS Mod on TS 140 S

Sun, 7 Jul 2002 14:09:53 -0400

TS-140S TX All Freq Mod

To enable the TS-140S for transmitting on all bands:

Disconnect radio from power supply and antenna
Remove top and Bottom covers
Locate the control board (I believe it is on the bottom --NOT BEHIND TH THE
KNOBS LIKE THE 440!!)
Cut D31 on the control board
Reassemble the radio
Reset the radio by holding the A=B switch while powering up the rig.
Disclaimer: This Modification is for those who need it to operate MARS only.
