Along with the radio went the Manual and the Service Manual.....Now this fine fellow informs me that S.Korea is on 220v AC mains not 117v AC mains. I don't have the Manual or Schematic......Does anyone have a 901DM or the manual that could tell me if and or how to convert the radio to 220v AC??????

The answer to both you gents' question is the same:  Two Websites to 
bookmark.

The Danish site < http://www.mods.dk > - if you haven't yet signed-up, 
do so, and you can download (for free) one manual (mostly Adobe PDFs) 
every four days, or one article or file (including frequency mods and 
bug-fixes) every day.  Contributing (money or documents) toward the 
maintenance of this huge site gets you more privileges.  Read the 
introduction, select your brand at the left, then your model in the 
right list, or (Manuals) at the top right.

Follow the directions carefully if you are going to download a manual; 
try not to back up to the previous page until your download is complete, 
or you'll have to wait four days to try again!

There's also a Russian site < http://www.cqham.ru/sch_eng.html >, 
fortunately (mostly, not all) in English, where you might find other 
material, especially European and Russian gear, in addition to the Japanese.

Good Hunting!

All else aside, RF to the other fellow's antenna is what counts.
