here is some info on the kenwood model
tr-2600a handie - talkie....

if you want to be able to transmit on 
the extended freq area 
then do the following mod....
 1. remove the front cover of the radio

2. locate the ic chip in the lower
   right hand corner.

3. find the 2 diodes number d32 and d33
   (they should be the top two on the
   right side of the ic chip, also 
   they have ben cut beforenand 
  (re-soldered)

4. un-solder the two diodes (breaking
   their connection).

a5. replace the front ctver.

6. re-install the battery and turn the
   unit on, then push the reset button
   on the back.


the tr-2600a should now be reprogramed
and it should also transmit anywhere it
will recieve...

i forgot to add that d32 and d33 on the
recieve board (but that is what is 
under the front cover).

this is the mod as per kenwood....

hope you like it....
