[TenTec] Jupiter diode upgrade?

I recently acquired a Jupiter. I have local bc stations which overload the
front end on the lower bands by imaging everywhere.
This depends on the antenna I'm using at the time. I have a Carolina
Windom80 and a 160m loop. The attn button takes it out pretty well without
affecting reception otherwise.
I was offered to send the Jupiter back to Ten Tec under warrantee to replace
a pair of diodes in order to eliminate the bc imaging. Has anyone else had
this done? How did it work out? de ben k8dit
