Guys , come on , I am not saying that it is "hard" , Some of you old
fart amateur radio operators can't hardly see let alone removing SMD
componants with a 120 VAC Radio Shack welding iron...I would say 75% can
do your own , 25% can't even find a screwdriver to get the covers
off..Sit in front af A.E.S. sometime and look at some of the trash that
comes through. I seen a "duck tape" ATAS-100 last week. to cheap to buy
a mount. It was taped on to the side rear quarter panel of about a 1979
station wagon with duck tape.The PL-259 screwed into a barrel and into
the ATAS...If you say it is easy , then good for you , however think of
you lower life friends who can't.

What's the big deal, the mod is simply to desolder 2 components. An 8th
grader can do this.
