[MRCA] M/S Net on Yaesu FT-920

[grasshopper]

Have not had a FT-920, but ever yaesu I've had I opened up the TX on and
never had to do more than remove a jumper...  Surprised you can't find
appropriate instructions on mods.dk or QRZ.. Sure you have tried there, but
if not, try there!

No better way to spend three hours or go deaf then cranking up a 106 in a
small metal box in the middle of winter! The question is what's worse, being
in a S-250 shelter when its freezing cold or when its boiling hot? Wish I
had one to find out for myself. Got the 106 but intend to install that on
the back of the M-151 this spring and try operating that way.

I have been racking my brain trying to get my FT-920 on 60 meters. (I know
this would be sacrilege on the M/S net) I could use my GRC-106 in the comm
shelter but it would take 3 hours to get it warmed up as it's in the shelter
parked next to the driveway. The '920 is in the nice warm
house(-15 tonight here). Does anyone have the  MARS / CAP mod instructions
for a US Yaesu FT-920? I've found the 'green wire mod'
instructions and they won't work with this radio as there isn't a green wire
and the number given doesn't work either. I've heard the EPROM flash
procedure will turn the radio into a doorstop. I e-mailed Yaesu and the tech
there insists I have a MARS CAP license in order to get the instructions
even though he's allegedly a ham and doesn't seem to comprehend that I just
want to use it on 60m. Anyone out there that could help me will be
appreciated.
