IC3220A

The mods file for the IC-3220H was incorrect.  I have indicated the corrections
with a '>>> ' designation.  The mods I show corrected are what I installed into
the radio (and have confirmed by calling ICOM service).

              Frequency expansion/Mini repeater

Frequency expansion:

    To extend the receiver range on VHF: 118.000MHz (AM) to 174.000MHz (FM)
    Cut D6 on the LOGIC board (located on the front of the radio)

>>> This should be D4; (D6 and D7 are not even installed in the USA version).

    To extend the receiver range on UHF: 400.000MHz to 479.000MHz
    Cut D4 on the LOGIC board.

>>> This should be D5.

    To extend transmitter range on VHF: 136.000MHz to 174.000MHz
    Solder a bridge between the solder pads next to D9

>>> Not verified.

    To extend transmitter range on UHF: 400.000MHz to 479.000MHz
    Install 1SS190 (diode) at D9 position on the LOGIC board.

>>> Not verified.


MINI REPEATER FUNCTION

1.  Set rig to "DUAL" by using the BAND switch.

2.  Set frequencies in VHF and UHF.  You may set in offset on
    either band.  You may also set it up in VFO or MEMORY.

3.  Simultaneously hold BAND and SET key.  The memory number
    will display a flashing "L".  It will be in repeater mode

To disable repeater mode, depress and hold "SET" key until the flashing
"L" goes to a memory number or VFO mode.

The repeater mode will not be disabled by turning the rig off and on.

>>> The cross-band repeater mode works as described.
