 If the CB filter is removed, the tuned inputs are put right, and 10m is 
 added, then12m and 17m are no prob.  However, even though 30m operation 
 is possible on the 20m position, doing so more than doubles the I^2 x R 
 dissipation in the output bandswitch contacts.

It probably doesn't matter that the I^2 x R dissipation is increased, you're
limited to 200 watts PEP output on 30 meters.
