Cobra 29 Schottky diode swap?

I have a Cobra 29 LTD Classic that I am about to start playing with.

I am interested in the Schottky diode swap. I believe I need 1N6263 Schottky Barrier Diodes

Does anyone have any information on doing it for this radio? Is it: D5, D6, D24

I am not interested in the preamp "Boost" (swapping the transistor) that I have seen on the 'net, I just want to quite the RX down a bit.

Thanks
