Subject: help with different TH28A modifications?
To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
I have read the mod file that is posted on ham.eetech.mcgill.ca but this
file includes additions by three different people, each with different
modifications. Can anyone who has recently bought and modified a Kenwood
TH28A shed some light here for me and verify any of these mods? All I
want is extended recieve from 400-520, I really don't care much about
the extended transmit range. I have tried lifting one end of diode 9 as
listed in the mod file, but nothing happened...the radio acted as if
nothing had happend. Can anyone help me here?
I prefer E-mail: snorris@trumpet.aix.calpoly.edu, but I do read this
group regularly as well.
Thanks,

The W2A is the one with which I am familiar. You could buy 1,000 of
them and go to some country where there are no laws, and use them to
equip a small army with very sophisticated communications.
Each radio can be programmed with a three-digit number, and it is silent
until someone calls with that number programmed into their unit.
Plus there is a way to set up groups where you can key your mike and
talk to everyone in the group and they can talk back.
You could imagine a family (all with ham licenses) using this as a
really neat way to keep in touch through many family activities --
picnics, trips to the amusement park, shopping mall, etc.
