Subject: TM-742/942 Beyond Mars/CAP Mod. Guide

Procedure:
1. Detach the front panel from the main chassis.
2. Remove the bottom cover of the transceiver by removing the 4 screws on
   the bottom of the cover and loosening the 4 screws on the side of the
   unit.
3. Orient the radio so the bottom is up and the front panel area is near
   your chest. Near the front panel area you will find a large board, this
   is the control unit.
4. Remove the chip resistors "Y" noted in the diagram below, and reinstall
   them in position "Z" as shown.
5. Reinstall the bottom cover of the transceiver and reattach the front
   panel.
6. Reset the microprocessor. Press and hold the MR key while the power is
   switched on. Then release the MR key. This will erase all operator
   programmed data.
7. The frequency range after modification will be:

        28  Mhz Band:   RX:   18.0 thru  54.0 Mhz
                        TX:   26.0 thru  45.0 Mhz
        50  Mhz Band:   RX:   40.0 thru  90.0 Mhz
                        TX:   46.0 thru  76.0 Mhz
        144 Mhz Band:   TX:  136.0 thru 174.0 Mhz
        220 Mhz Band:   RX:  215.0 thru 260.0 Mhz
                        TX:  215.0 thru 235.0 Mhz
        440 Mhz Band:   TX:  410.0 thru 470.0 Mhz
        1.2 Ghz Band    RX/TX: 1100.0 thru 1400.0 Mhz

        Please note that these are theoretical ranges only. Not
        all radios will be capable of tuning the entire range.
