Does anyone have documentation on a PTT mod for a DX-100B ?

Thanks !

Hi Bruce,

I have not needed the PTT mod myself.

But,  I agree with Mark.  Did put two thermistors in the primary of the Plate transformer to limit the inrush current.  Before that mod,  would see sparks  (pieces of the filament flying around inside of the 5R4 rectifiers .

GL with the DX-100B -- a great rig!    Vic  K6IC

IIRC there were several DX-100 PTT mods in QST back in the 50's.
