munications equipment. Damage caused by im-
properly installing this modification may cause
ICOM to charge for subsequent repairs to the
product. ICOM does not warrant this modification.
Bulletin #: 588-001
Subject: If the IC amplifier oscillates when the noise
blanker is turned on and the FL-83 CW narrow fil-
ter is installed
Procedure
1. Remove the covers to gain access to the main circuit board.
2. Remove R354 (22K) from the main circuit board and replace it
with a 10K (ICOM P/N 915-01113) resistor.
3. Re-install the main circuit board and replace the covers on
the radio.
Bulletin #: 24487-002
Subject: Prevent PLL unlock at high ambient temperature
Procedure
1. Change the following parts on the PLL board
Original New
Part Value Value
C101 12 pf 50V CH 6 pf 50V CH
R137 35D 45 SN (ICOM P/N 915-04229)
R133 22K 15K
C191 3 pf 50V 6 pf 50V
2. The thermister should be installed in series with R133. Un-
solder one end of R133 and solder R137 in series with it.
Bulletin #: 24487-005
Subject: Improve voice synthesizer and side tone audio
Procedure:
1. Remove C214 (.47 uf capacitor) from the main board.
2. Install a .1 mf 16V barrier layer capacitor in series with a
