1N4004 will work! Its just rated for higher voltage than the 1N4001, and its bigger.


You right on the mod Robb! The diode goes series with R266 and the band faces the back of the radio, R-186 is the mod resistor for AM only, you can cut or lift it. Just turning up VR-16 might not give you the mod you want.


I never had a non SSB Galaxy but you should be able to volt the final to prevent over heating of Q54


Here is a good site for 949/959's your 929 is really close minus the SSB.
