I just finished the mod, and wanted to post a pic... The first thing that struck me when I opened the back of the radio was how SMALL the resistor is. The other pictures posted are great photos, but didn't really convey the size very well. This pic is of the resistor (after removal) at the tip of an average ball point pen (it does "pop right out" with tweezers). The small scale is further enhanced by the lines on the legal paper the pen & resistor are on. My point? If your getting up there in age, and your sight isn't what it used to be, you might need some type of magnifier PRIOR to opening the radio... Other than that, great mod and thanks to the original poster Moleculo for the great info!
