Re: New file uploaded to ultralightdx

Re: Just for fun!!!

I guess what I'm looking for is an Icom R-75 with the FM section from the XDR-F1HD, all packed into a form factor similar to the 2010. Maybe with a large display like the E1 so it can be used to do

Re: SRF-M37V and SRF-M37W-Performance differences?

Just a silly question. How hard would it beto change the I.F. of one of these small radios from 450kHz to 455kHz? Could itbe as simple as changing a mixer IC or a crystal? 73, Chris Knight
