Hi Mike,
I have installed the mod and it is definitely worth the cost. It is a plug
in mod that is easy to install and remove. You can get quite a lot of
feedback on the INRAD mod in the archives of the 1000mp reflector at
<http://www.qth.net/>.

>The byproduct is increased sensitivity of 2-4 DB in noise floor reduction.
>This is a plug-in, no-solder mod which can be easily removed.
