My memory is not all that good, but I do recall on my Paragon removing a
plug from one of the boards (LP filter maybe?) It essentially bypassed
an attenuator I think that is in line on the MW frequencies, not sure
about the LW frequencies. The Paragon II may not be the same, but if I
were to guess I would say it might be. The plug if I recall was near
the edge of the board, it was either a single wire or 2 wire plug.
I'm sorry I can't be more specific, if you look at the schematic I think
you'll see what I am talking about. Anyhow not sure how much help this
is but it's worth taking a look I'd say..

Subject: [TenTec] paragon II performance on longwave band??
i love this radio, but i have found one negative with the paragon and
that is LW reception. i sometimes like to listen to the NDB's
(navigational beacons) below the broadcast band, but the paragon II is
pretty deaf down here. is this consistant with ten tec radios? do they
supress reception down in this area? i compared this radio with my icom
r75 on LW and there is no comparison. Medium wave is actually pretty
good on the paragon II with good rejection.
