pro34.14 Date: 4 Apr 89 14:24:01 GMT Subject: PRO-34 Scanner Modifications In the May 1989 edition of Popular Communications is a "Letter to the Editor" on the Radio Shack PRO-34 Scanner. Below is the text of that letter. PRO-34 Scanner Modification In regard to the information presented (March Issue) on the handheld Radio Shack PRO-34 scanner, my own observations on the modifications have been: 1. To restore missing 800 MHz frequencies, remove D-11. 2. To add 66 to 88 MHz (European Coverage), install a diode at D-9. 3. D-10 must remain in place for full 800 MHz coverage. 4. If a diode is added at D-13 it cuts out aero band, also seems to affect 800 MHz channel spacing. 5. D-12 added dosen't seem to have any affect. 6. Only D-10 and D-11 are factory installed. I wish to thank you for a fine and informative magazine. I have had much reading enjoyment. Sam S.
