News of this mod is certainly welcome! I'd appreciate it VERY much if
someone who has installed the mod (now or in the future) could do either of:
1) Please post the essence of what this mod entails. Change some caps, or
??? Not looking for a how to, but curious how they fixed this.
2) Please consider running the audio into a soundcard and get a plot of the
spectrum tuned to empty spot on the band (i.e., noise). This actually is
easy to do. Take a look at
http://www.albany.net/~bg/Audio/Corsairspectra.htm and you'll see a graph
for my Corsair with Inrad filter.
Tnx/73,
