I have made the BC-342 mods available for download from:

http://www.mines.uidaho.edu/~glowbugs/PDF%20files/

Look in the BC342 folder. It is well labled, and is only about 380 
kb.

The OTHER file in that folder is an excellent scan of the entire 
BC-312-342 manual, if you need one.

Robert Downs and I have agreed that the T/R mod is pretty 
useless, as the BC-342 already HAS a T/R function built in, and 
I have never particularly cared for lifting the center-tap of a 
power transformer. Bad idea.

Some of the other mods are, IMHO, useless or not necessary.

The only two which I intend to implement in MY BC-342 are 
those dealing with improving the signal-to-noise ratio, and the  
crystal filter improvements.

I might tackle the dial backlash improvements too...
