[TenTec] OUT OF HAM BAND MODIFICATION

[joel hallas]

Jim,

Great tip, thanks much! I found the jumper just where you predicted, cut 
it and it seems to operate perfectly on 60 m. I checked it b4 I did a 
processor reset and it seems to be just fine. Is there a particular 
reason why a reset is required??

Sorry to say,  no info on the Paragon II for you.

BTW, I put the appropriate offset channels in memory to make sure I end 
up in the right place, per the ARRL Web page:

This chart from the NTIA suggests appropriate tuning frequencies for 
each center-channel frequency:

Channel Center

Amateur Tuning Frequency

5332 kHz

5330.5 kHz

5348 kHz

5346.5 kHz

5368 kHz

5366.5 kHz

5373 kHz

5371.5 kHz

5405 kHz (common US/UK)

5403.5 kHz

In case anyone hasn't seen the chart.

73 and Thanks again, Joel, W1ZR
