My KX1 [nr 422] developed an open in the volumn
control pot. Replacement was pretty easy to do. I
flush cut the old pot from the PC board and then used
solder wick and some sharpened wooden toothpicks to
remove the remaining material.
My question is: Are there any modifications out there
in KX1 land to make the audio output louder? Another
3 dB would suit me fine.
I am using the recommended 110 db/mw ear phones [Sony
MDR-A35] which did make a big difference from the old
100 dB/mw RS phones. The radio is alligned per the
instructions.. and is sensitive and selective... but
when I crank in the XTAL filter, I'd like more audio
level. On my radio... the vol control is mostly
cranked up all the way.
Any advice is appreciated. TU de Rich KR7W KX1
NR422.
Oh yah... I recently had my hearing checked... and it
is above normal in one ear, a little low in the other,
so I am OK in that department.
