[Kenwood] TS-850SAT AND 60 METERS

[Jim Vaughan, K4TXJ]

The modification to allow the TS-850SAT to TX on 60 meters is on modsdk.

You take off the top and bottowm covers and take out the two screws on the side at the top
for the front panel and loosen the two screws on the side at the bottom of the front panel.
Carefully tilt out the front panel and look at the board behind the front panel.  There is a row
of diods in the center of that board.  Clip the lead on diode D11.
Put everything back in reverse of the above.  You must reset the microprocessor before 
this mod will take effect.

i was just on 5403.5 and it works great.  The internal tuner even tunes 60 meters.

73 and good luck,
