  2. Hello. looking for info: a friend have the ALBRECHT AE 4200. His FM -modulation is verry verry quiet. Which controller in the device on the board is responsible for this? Or … where can I fix the fm mod higher on the board?

  5. Hi, on the CRT Mike, how much power does it have if i do the hi power mod? And does anyone know if this will be switchable from the radio’s menu? Thank you

    • Thanks for your quick reply Simon! I have the CRT Mike as mentioned with a President New York on my car and was looking at getting the most out of them. I like to have them permanently set up and a long antenna is not practical for me (i do have one ML-145 in the boot if needed though).

    • Hi Simon. I agree it’s not worth it. I’m not after crazy wattage, just that little bit extra to get me out there..many times i can hear people but my setup just doesnt get that far out. Rather than opening up the radio i might just leave it. If it was something selectable from the radio’s menu, i wouldve been all up for it, like when you select the band and can get EU (1w AM) or EUH (4w AM), for example.

  6. No luck on opening up the frequency on ALINCO DR-438H. There’s literally nothing online that even mentions how it’s done. Just says on sites that sell the radio, that it’s modifiable via software. It IS only for frequencies within the frequency band set on the radio. They make out as though you can change the version via software, but it’s BULL. I payed £160 for the radio, and that’s excluding cable. Can’t use it on 446MHz! Put away in its box until I know how to open up the frequency. Merry Christmas Simon, and whoever is reading this!

    • Yes but there is two softwares
      A: Programming
      B: Small file software that writes new limits 400-470Mhz

      You do change via software, just software not released to all. Plus, I’ve checked and it unlocks via key routine.

      Wishing you a very Happy Christmas

    • Just wish I knew the keys to press or software to download! lol Otherwise I’d be using it right now.

    • Software is dealer only.
      Key routine I’ve explained it’s Christmas I’ve nobody to ask till after 7th January when people are back in offices. Now closed sadly

  7. Anyone know how to open up frequencies on ALINCO DR438H? I have cable and software but that’s enough. There must be some hardware adjustment or button press combination to unblock it.

  8. Yes, sorry mate, i must have missed it when i first done it, its fine now, Sorry for the inconvenience mate :/

    • Page 49 Manual is band selection. The bands you’ve got is multi-norm but ALL President default EU. You need press mode button and you’ll see it goes to UK40. Has to, it’s in legal mode

  9. If i Press F then turn on the radio in legal mode, I can choose EU, PL, D & U etc! & i have tried them all but No UK FM, I tried cycling through the modes too, but No UK FM, so it seem’s i would have to rejoin the white wire too maybe 🙁

    • I don’t see the problem?
      Turn on radio press F
      Turn channel change till it shows U
      Press F till it stops flashing (1 second)
      Turn on radio and it will show 27.185 AM band EU
      Press I think AM FM maybe and it goes to U which is UKFM
      The radio defaults in EU mode on UK 40 and you need select it like it says in manual. It is in EU/UK mode

  10. Hi Simon, When I have the jumper in Export mode in my Grant II, I get all the bands etc! except the UK FM(Obviously) & i cycle through the bands by pressing the F Key which is cool 🙂
    But, when i move the jumper back to legal (Wire still Cut), all i get is the Mids & No UK FM, any ideas Simon?

    • Hi Stu. You got me! If you turn on radio with F pressed in “legal” mode is it just EU.. CAN also be wire cut in legal mode only mid Band for sale in countries like Austria where multi EU radios not allowed

  11. ok, thanx again, tho just 2 more things, so if im in export mode, how do i change between the bands? is it with the F key? & lastly, So what is the point of the white wire that you cut for export mode, if you only need to put the jumper back to get uk legal again?

    • http://tinyurl.com/y9ax4xjt That shows how to get A channels and 0 ending in export mode. As the UK is open for use multi norm not all countries are. So, the white wire helps if move jumper and not cut wire makes CEPT only so disable multi norm.
      Wire joined jumper moved CEPT
      Wire cut jumper moved EXPORT

  12. ok, thanks simon, mine is the standard grant ii, so if i resoldered the wire & moved the jumper back, would i regain the UK FM mode like it was before the mod?, also, in export mode will the FM/AM & SSB have more power, if so, do you know roughly how much it will be?

    • Yep just move the jumper no need to attach the wire just move jumper.
      FM 4w AM 4w & SSB 9-11w
      If the jumper is in export mode its around 8w FM 5w AM and 9-11w SSB so nothing lost at all

  13. Hi Simon, I have a Grant ii ASC, How do i use the UK FM after i mod it to export mode? & will the channel number be correct or will i have to get used to finding the UK FM channels by frequency?, also could you email me any mods for this radio please, cheers

    • Hi Stu. All mods are on modification area. Depends on your Grant II. If its not a Premium you loose UK40 in export mode. If it is a premium just go through modes and will be AM FM USB LSB UK ..

    • Hi Mike, All Presidents FM is always lower than AM.. Remember it’s set to around 1.8khz which is legal norm.. Myself I’d change to a Power mike or similar was not worth wasting warranty. It’s adjustment right hand side one of the W’s. I can’t put it here as too many google engineers make mess of good radios, especially this year.
      Regards
      Simon

    • Thanks for quick reply 👍Will get a an adapter made and try silver eagle on it
      Thanks again

    • Normally i could say but this year many made an arse of radios when modding etc. Mine is same, run a Konektor5000 Tuning AE-2002 Densei (kamsat Manchester also sell them) it rattles fillings from teeth and takes voltage from radio so no battery. Silver Eagle on AM will be brilliant on it.
      Best Wishes

  14. Than you for such a quick reply. I reckon that the new rig will be treated with much more care and consideration. Must throw that goosed one in the bin now. Cheers mate and thanks again.

  15. i have an intek m100 plus and have tried to modify it by removing link2.. the result is a radio that only shows 40 on the sreen and none or the controls seem to work… have i goosed it or is there a solution? best regards.

  16. Hi Simon! fantastic informations 🙂 …is there a hint for my Stabo xm 4060e? there is only a picture with wirecut and jumper. What will happen? is there a chance for increase power of it by mod? Best regards!!!!

  17. Just found this site while looking for info on CRT Millennium… love it, will try the 4/8 power mode and see what its lie, thanks for all your hard work and time on this 🙂
