Mods to improve Corsair transmit and receive audio:

I did only part of these -- put in the INRAD 2.8 kHz filter, with a bypass in
one position of the second IF filters. This greatly improved transmit and
receive audio and was dead simple to do. When I need more selectivity, I switch
in the 2.4 kHz filter in the second IF. I highly recommend doing this
modification.
If you do a Google search on Ten-Tec Corsair modifications you'll find other
sites. For example:

http://www.qsl.net/tentec/mods/560if.htm
And others. I've done none of these and can't vouch for them. The Corsair
AGC is bothersome. If you find a modification that improves the AGC, please
post it to the reflector.
A VFO rebuild wasn't necessary in my radio.
