yeah. The little wound transformer transplant from Frank C. fixes the whip
impedence matching problem and makes the whip real sensitive. There is also a
blocking transister you can remove to increase all AM sensitivity, including mw
reception. It won't resist interfering FM bleeds into the SW band as well
though.I have both mods on one 398 and just the transformer mod on the other. I
tend to like just the implant the best. You can find these mods by searching.
...Hindsight Band

I did the R43 resistor mod' (removal) and the homemade impedance
matching transformer for the whip, in that order. If I had known how
well the transformer works, I wouldn't have bothered removing R43 too.
Someday I'll put it back.
