Be careful not to transmit outside the Amateur Bands.
RX: 30KHz-824MHz, 849MHz-859MHz, 894MHz-961MHz.
TX: 1.8MHz-30MHz, 50MHz-54MHz, 140MHz-174MHz, 420MHz-470MHz.
- Remove Front Panel from radio and open the rear cover from the Front Panel unit. Be careful, a cable connects them together.
- Locate and remove R6035 (1) and R6036 (2) on the display board.
Note: The factory removed R6035 on my radio so I only had to remove R6036. You should end up like the picture below.
