[Kenwood] TS-570SG and 60 meters

Thanks Guys!

 Thanks to Eric Lowell and Gert Janssens for the answer. The MARS mod works
but the tuner is for the "normal" ham bands only. I have a roller inductor
type tuner that should do the job If I need it. Maybe I'll give 60 meters a
try after all. My ICOM IC-756 PRO won't work well there due to the bandpass
filtering even after the MARS mod on the radio.
