- Has anyone converted or seen a conversion of a Kenwood TL-922A for 6M rather than 10M operation? If so, are there any gotchas to be aware of? Thanks, Clay W7CE _______________________________________

- Interesting idea Bill. Is your SB-1000 converted for 6M only now or did you retain 160-15M? If the latter, did you have to short out the new coil or move any of the coil taps for 160-15M operation? C

- Thanks Bill. I'll check out the ARRL handbook and do the calculations to see if I can come up with a matching network that will handle 160-15M as well as 6M. I guess my other other option is to look
