| + | ====== Paragon Model 585 Improved AM Broadcast Band Sensitivity ====== | ||
| + | **From the Ten-Tec Reflector - September 5, 2008** | ||
| + | |||
| + | For those who like to do a little AM broadcast band dxing with their Paragon 585 transceiver, there is a very simple mod that will greatly improve reception. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Normally, for frequencies below 1.7 MHz the Paragon's receive RF amp is bypassed. By simply unplugging the connector going to J16 on the | ||
| + | first mixer board this function will be disabled and you will have full sensitivity on the AM broadcast band. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The front panel ATTEN switch will still function and unless you have a high powered broadcast station within a few blocks of your location you won't need to use it. | ||
