Kenwood TS-520s WARC Mod
- Thread starter Bombardier
- Start date
That radio was made way before the WARC bands were added. It would take a crystal for any new band, to start.
The 11-meter mod starts by choosing which of the three 10-meter segments you will use for the 11 meter band. You swap the new crystal for that 10-meter crystal, and touch up alignment.
Somebody out there should have done a more step-by-step treatment of this on YouTube. Haven't found it yet, though.

Nomadradio, I am not sure which to remove, looks to be 3 crystals for 10 meter. I think I am to pull the lowest 10 Meter crystal. I will remove this one and install the crystal I have and see if it will give me 27MHz.
It's an incredibly awkward operation. Choosing the one that's easiest to access might be the smartest move.

So, here's a guy selling the crystal for 27 and 27.5 MHz bands, here:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/2230930575...d=link&campid=5336136228&toolid=20001&mkevt=1
Nobody seems to list either 26.0 or 26.5 bands that I found.

@ BJ radionut:
Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned -

@ ButtFuzz:Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
