RX diode mod Help. Realistic TRC-473

[Charlie Brown]

Hi

I have a lil trc-473 Great great lil radio. I bought it new in the box a couple years ago and its been my little back up go to radio. I recently dug it out and started playing with it again. I put a channel kit in it to get the lowers but I would like to improve the RX.

Can anyone tell me which diodes to replace for the RX mod and what number the the lil transistor is that goes with that mod. Heres some pics

Thanks for any help.

Schottky diode mod: replace D5 & D6 with 1N6263s.

I see D4 & 5 in the front of the radio. Dont see a D6. 4&5 are side by side by L5

Look around R24,R23,R22 for D6
