Saw the interesting info regarding the TS-850 separate receive antenna and it 
looks like a great solution to that problem. Lot of good ideas.
        So, off to work on the 850.

Now, the TS-870...maybe you folks have the solution:
have already received some chip resistors from Kenwood to reduce the gain of 2 
or 3 of the IF stages for its front end overload / intermod situation. I then 
heard of another field mod (not from Kenwood) to install a roofing filter 
between two of the IF stages. I believe it was actually a Yaesu filter that was 
used.

Anyone know about this? Once I dig in it to install the chip resistors, I might 
as well do the filter.

Thanks - now if I could actually see the chip resistors.....
