I've recently acquired a Triton IV digital (aka 544) transceiver and have
really enjoyed operating with the little fella. Being the inveterate
tweaker, I would appreciate any information on mods to this late 70's radio
(other than the filter addition article written by Steve Mann in 9/81 QST
which I already have). Any and all mod information is welcome, and I
volunteer to collate the info and publish for all to view.
In addition to general 544 mod info, I would also appreciate specific
responses to:
1. Has anyone adopted Bob Helms' Omni mods (QEX 6/83) to the 544?
2. Has anyone outfitted a Triton or early Omni with a more highly geared
tuning knob or a weighted tuning knob?
3. Any advice on reducing images on receive, other than reducing RF gain or
using an external antenna tuner (what I've been doing)? Anyone add a BCB
filter and have success in reducing the images?
Tnx & 73,
Barry N1EU
