Remove the detatchable face and the bottom cover. Look at the pcb that is vertical behind the the front of the radio. There will be 5-6 sets of solder pads numbered 0-whatever. There will be 2 chip resistors on the first two pads, the rest are empty. Remove the resistor on the first pad (the one closest to the grounding spring-should be #0). The new range should be VHF 136-173.995TX 118-174RX UHF 410-469.995TX 300-470 RX. This is directly from the Kenwood Supplementary Info sheet TM-V7A Beyond MARS Modification. -- Jim KB9RQD
