Anti-chuffing mod for the ATS-803A/DX440 --------------------------cut here--------------------------------
ATS-803A and DX-440 Mod This mod gets rid of the "chuff" when tuning the radio that becomes very annoying.
This Mod also enables the speaker while you are scanning You will be surprised on how much you have missed.
I have done the mod and it is real easy If you don't like it change it back I got the mod from a unknown
source, so it has not yet been tested I have heard of no complaint or problems The Mod is so easy all you
need is a Phillips screwdriver and 5min's It's that easy Ok here it is:1) Remove the batteries from the
unit and turn it upside down so the antenna is facing away from you 2) Remove the six screws and remove the
cover (be careful that you don't break the antenna wire) 3) Okay so far so good Now locate the 8-pin cable.
4) Remove it carefully Bend the second lead from the left to a 90' 5) Replace the cable and make sure the
lead is not touching anything 6) Wa la [sic] 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 Chris Johnson CI$ (70674,1424) ------------------------cut
