If you own a 2010, be sure to check the new 2010 section on my web site for
some never before seen mods of my own design.

and go to the tips section




Modifying the battery compartment and the speaker are good for people
carrying around with their 2010. I use it as a bedside radio -with
headphones mostly -.

I have my 2010 (2001D export model with "Air" button) modified with
other IF-filters. A little more narrow ones in both positions. 8kc
(Murata CFW) in the 'wide' and a 4kc (Murata CFJ) in the'narrow'
position. This fits best in the european situation with 9kc spacing on
MW BCB in europe and the 5kc spacing on SW BCB. "Fidelity" on SW is
something you must not dream of here in europe.... I also added a 2nd
filter of 2,4kc (Murata CFJ) to the 'narrow' position with a 2x(2x4)
switch. This is *great* for SSB.
I also did the AGC mod and made it switchable for 'fast' and 'slow'. The
additional diodes mod to the antenna input to prevent statics blowing
the input stage are a real must.
The mods are easy to find in the web.
