Several questions received about this one.
The mod was actually 3 fold, and different than I remembered from 16
years ago.
1) replace jumper on Q93 with XZ-070 Zener
2) Upgrade PIN diodes D15 - D33 with 1s2588's
3) Install 2 ea 1s2588's, a coil and cap circuit on the RF line to the
filters
Look for Service bulletin #868, Subject: TS-930 Low RX Sensitivity.
This will probably answer the questions best.
