HOMEPAGE | THE WORLD OF FREE PACKET RADIO SOFTWARE AMSTERDAM THE NETHERLANDS |
From: interpol Date: 25 Mar 92 Organization: Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois Subject: Sangean ATS803A And Realistic DX-440 Radio Modification Here's an interesting Modification I found on CompuServe: ATS-803A and DX-440 Modification. This Modification gets rid of the chuff when tuning the radio that becomes very annoying. This Modification also enables the speaker while you are scanning. You will be surprised on how much you have missed. I have done the modification and it is real easy. If you don't like it change it back. I got the modification from a unknown source, so it has not yet been tested. I have heard of no complaint or problems. The Modification is so easy all you need is a Phillips screwdriver and 5min's. It's that easy. OK HERE IS THE MODIFICATION STEP BY STEP: STEP 01: Remove the batteries from the unit and turn it upside down so the antenna is facing away from you. STEP 02: Remove the six screws and remove the cover be careful that you don't break the antenna wire. STEP 03: Okay so far so good now the locate the 8-pin cable. STEP 04: Remove it carefully Bend the second lead from the left to a 90'. STEP: 05: Replace the cable and make sure the lead is not touching anything. STEP 06: Wa la it's done not so bad now huh ?. Okay that's it for now. If I find any newer ones I'll make sure to pass it on. 73 From Chris Johnson, CI$ 70674, 1424. From Drew S, Cheng, BA '91 MD '95 compelling, yet tedious.
