I found another way of modification for IC-2330. After the modification, we can receive;
 
118.000-135.995MHz  AM(RX)
136.000-174.000MHz  FM(RX)
144.000-146.000MHz  FM(TRX)
320.000-479.000MHz  FM(RX)
430.000-440.000MHz  FM(TRX)
830.000-950.000MHz  FM(RX)
 
This way might be more difficult than yours, but it is easy. 
 First, a switching diode should be put on the circuit board in the circle on this picture. 
Second, the transceiver should be reset. To be reset, turn it on with pushing [SET]+[MW]. 
And turn off and turn it on again with [V/M]+[SET]+[DN]. [DN] key is located on microphone. 
That's all of modifications for IC-2330.
 In addition, if you want to put an external antenna for 830-950MHz, put coaxial cable in the circle on this picture.
 This mods is shown in a web page in Japan. That means it wouldn't work well coz this mod is for IC-2330 sold in Japan.
