It looks like d14 is cut to defeat the modulation limiter. This is the older version.

Put a good D-104 desk microphone on it & it will make 100% modulation like an AUDIO MONSTER & no clipping required.

MOSFET mod?

Um, why?

My experience is that the drawbacks outweigh any advantage this would offer.

Just to start, you'd have to talk someone who is qualified into working it out and writing it up. And then posting it onto the web.

Just seems like anybody with that much skill would also have the wisdom to do something else with his/her time.

If the final is blown replace it with the same one. If it is a working radio leave the final section alone.

I thought these forums was to help not discourage maybe that's why the radio hobby is dying out .

Having 20 radios, you have plenty of "trial and error" candidates to practice on. Go for it!

Nomad is pointing out that you will gain nothing doing the swap.
Nomad has helped more people repair radios than you will ever run into in this hobby, nothing discouraging about his posting, just sharing his many years of experience.
If you want to just because, there is no step by step as he pointed out , it's going to require some experimenting , trial and error.

Is the mod for transmit or receive?

The mosfet mod is for transmit. They have it for cobra 25 and 29 there was no need to do a mosfet mod on those radios either but someone had the idea of doing them so as of today it's being done and there is info posted for that. not that it gives the radio any gain but it's a modification that some people enjoy doing and some just want to see bigger numbers on the meter. I was just wondering if anyone had done the mod before and if so what is it that has to be done to perform the mod. No worries I didn't mean to cause a issue . There is a lot of things in life that people want to do and there is no better outcome than if they didn't do it but no harm in trying or asking.
