Hello I saw a message requestion mods for certain radios, and noticed that the IC 2SAT was not on the list. But the 4SAT was.. Anyway, if you are interested , I have a simple keyboard mod for the ICOM 2SAT. TO allow the radio to RX out of band with no limitations, except for the IF limitations. This mod will allow you to dial in any frq from 0-1310 Mhz. Naturally this mod won't let you to RX from that whole intire range. the RX from this mod is typically from 100-200 maximum range. THIS MOD WILL ONLY WORK FOR THE ICOM 2SAT 'S THAT ARE ON THE MARKET TODAY. IN OTHER WORDS, THIS MOD WILL NOT WORK FOR THE OLDER IC-SAT'S SOLD A COUPLE MONTHS AGO. To modify the IC-2SAT on RX, is a simple keypress of keys while turning the radio on. to Modify the IC-2SAT on RX, push the following keys. "0","#","B","" ----- WHILE TURNING THE RADIO ON. this will open op the receiver.. TO MODIFY THE RADIO SO YOU CAN ENTER FRQ'S DIRECTLY FROM KEYBOARD. THAT IS, THE WHOLE FRQ. push the following keys, while turning the radio on. "3","B","" ---------- WHILE TURNING THE RADIO ON. This mod. will allow you to dial any frq from 0-1310 MHZ. for example if you want to dial in 146.520 .. JUST GO INTO VFO and press the keys. 146520. AND THAT'S IT. !! *****IF YOUR RADIO DOES NOT OPEN UP THE RX AT ALL****** *****THEN YOU HAVE THE OLDER VERSIONS ****** ******************************************************* 73'S BRIAN.
