Remember it is Illegal to transmit out of band. This Modification is for Informational purposes ONLY.
Doing such modifications on your radio may void any warranty and damage your equipment.
All mods found on this database are offered to me by other amateur radio hams or captured by Packet system. 
KB2LJJ  take no responsibility or liability for any damage done resulting from any modification.  

 I have been trying to help our ham radio with the radio modifications and have asked for any type of new radio mods.
 However, I haven't received too many.  If all of you contributed a little more,  I believe I would be able to help 
all the other ham's that are looking for these mods. I know it is possible to get more mods from all the Ham's because of
 the wide range that exist throughout the world.  By doing this we can  flourish and enjoy more of this hobby that 
we've taken part in for so many years. Furthermore, I ask you not to forget to send me any modifications that you might
 have through email.  I would really appreciate it.
