Sb: FT890 MODS

                  YAESU FT890/AT mod.  TX 1,5 to 30 MHZ.
                  ======================================

- Disconnect FT890 from all connections.

- Open tranceiver like explained in your "OPERATING MANUAL".

- Locate on the "CONTROL UNIT" jumper point JW 3001 and close it with solder.

- Close tranceiver back and reconnect power.

- Push PROC, AGC-F, IPO, ATT while power ON.

- Now the display shows two digits of numbers and tree of letters (i.e 13 OFF)
  Rotate main knob and set the display to "02 ON". Now press the PROC button.

- Power OFF and then back ON. It's all!

- Now every time you want, you can change the programation, but you will
  allways lose the memories.

- Other settings than "02 ON" are of no interest. This one give you 100 w
  and automatic antenna tuning between 1,5 and 30 mhz.
