Todd, I don't blame TenTec for not offering a mod for the 60 Meter band. It
wouldn't be a difficult conversion, it would be an almost impossible one.
In order to do a halfway decent job and preserve the appearance and
functionality of the rig you would either have to redesign the bandpass
filter board to add another filter and its associated reed relays, AND add
another pushbutton to the front panel pushbutton setup to add another band:
or remove one band entirely and change it's pushbutton to one marked 60.
While the second option would not be difficult, which band do you want to
lose?
