BL-.Has anyone seen anything in print about whether the vanity
BL-.callsign program (someday) might allow 1x1 calls?
BL-.(for info, a 1x1 is like K1X)
At least it will be very good for my WPX HONOR ROLL...

Following is a copy from Packet, on how to do the transmit mod for the
well-reviewed. Icom 737 HF transciever. If someone else tries it, please
let us know if it works.
73 from Leigh/KM6JE in Santa Barbara.

1300 B# 1312 ALL IW3BKW WW 940312 ICOM IC-737 GEN.COVERANGE.
From: IW3BKW@OE7XCI.#TIR.AUT.EU
ICOM IC-737
-----------
GENERAL COVERANGE IN TRANSMISSION.
1) Remove the top and bottom covers of the transceiver.
2) Remove the final power amplifier module.
3) Locate the LOGIC-UNIT on witch there is a back-up lithium battery
for the RAM memory.
4) On the LOGIC-UNIT, near the chip called IC6 (TMP82C265BF-2),between
the output pin PC06 and the imput pin PA15, find the diode D3.
5) This diode is not an SMD component.
6) Cut the diode D3.
..Now the ICOM IC-737 will transmit from 1,6 to 30 Mhz !!!.

Don't you really mean "5NN QRZ" ?
There has been some optimization over the years, even if it is not well
organized :-)
