NNTP-Posting-Host:ucsd.edu Originator:daemon@ucsd.edu I requested this mod from the net several times and
received no responses This morning I see were N0RWZ has posted his luck with a similar inquiry Well, I
finally found it so here it is Extended RX/TX for Alinco DJ-162 1 Remove the battery pack Remove the
battery plate from the bottom of the radio 2 Remove the back cover from the radio This is a tedious
process You must take the knobs off the top and remove the top plate first 3 Under the Battery clasp on
the side of the radio (The little sliding thumb switch that keeps the battery from falling off the radio)
you will find a yellow loop of wire This loop is small and hard to get to You will need a very small
pair of cutters or scissors --Cut this wire 4 Put the radio back together 5 Reset the radio (You will
lose your memories) 6 Go to the VFO mode Pressing the 'B' key on the keypad will now allow you to cycle
through the extended rx bands It will cycle from 2 mtrs, am aircraft, to 800 The radio does NOT have the
guts to receive 800 It just happens to be in the processor so don't waste your time listening 7 This same
jumper also opens extended transmit Hope this helps out.. Ron Wright - KA5LUG RON@ALPHA.NSULA.EDU
