Restore the Cellular Freqs. on Your BC200/205XLT!
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This is so simple that anyone can do it, and you have to be
|
|||
|
|
REAL sloppy in order to damage your unit.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
There is no soldering involved, but if you do happen to mess your
|
|||
|
|
unit up: YOU AND ONLY YOU ARE THE ONE THAT IS RESPONSIBLE. We take no
|
|||
|
|
responsiblity for any thing that might become of you or your radio!
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This mod. will also void your warranty, so open your radio and
|
|||
|
|
check it out to make sure you can pull it off before you begin the real
|
|||
|
|
work.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Now that we are through with the usual backwash of "spooky"
|
|||
|
|
information we can now begin.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1.) Take the antenna and battery pack off of the radio.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2.) With a Phillips-head screwdriver, remove the two screws at the
|
|||
|
|
back of the radio. Then remove the two screws and the battery
|
|||
|
|
spring at the base of the radio.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
3.) GENTLELY! pull off the back of the radio.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
4.) Locate the two screws at the bottom of the board, and
|
|||
|
|
carefully remove them with a Phillips-head screwdriver.
|
|||
|
|
(Be carefull not to damage any of the surrounding components.
|
|||
|
|
This is not to tough to avoid, but warrants mentioning.)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
5.) EVER-SO-GENTLELY! pull the front panel away from the scanner
|
|||
|
|
frame.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
6.) On the front panel part of the radio, locate the microprocessor
|
|||
|
|
IC (labeled UNIDEN UC-1147, its the biggest black chip on the
|
|||
|
|
board) and the 10K ohm (brown-black-orange) resistor positioned
|
|||
|
|
right above the letters "DEN" in the word "UNIDEN" on the IC.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
***** MAKE SURE YOU LOCATE THE RIGHT PART *****
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
7.) With a small pair of clippers, clip the resistor right in two.
|
|||
|
|
Make sure not to disturb any components around the resistor.
|
|||
|
|
Leave the ends of the resistor on the board, all you need to
|
|||
|
|
do is just clip it enough so that there is a gap between the two
|
|||
|
|
ends. Take care to clean the remiments, made by cutting the
|
|||
|
|
resistor, of the board.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
8.) Check to see that there is no damage and everything is tidy.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
9.) CAREFULLY reasemble the radio in exactly the reverse order of
|
|||
|
|
how you took it apart. Be careful to line up the pins to their
|
|||
|
|
sockets in the lower, left-hand side of the radio.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
***** FAILURE TO DO THIS CORRECTLY WILL RESULT IN A DISPLAY
|
|||
|
|
ERROR. WHEN THE RADIO IS TURNED ON NOTHING WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
don't panic.
|
|||
|
|
I've done this before. The malfunction can be fixed by taking
|
|||
|
|
the radio back apart, carefully, and making sure those pins are
|
|||
|
|
in the correct socket. I almost gave birth to a small cow when this
|
|||
|
|
happened to me and I was very relived to find out that this was all
|
|||
|
|
that was wrong.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
10.) After you have tightened the screws, put the battery pack and
|
|||
|
|
the antenna back on the radio. Then press "MANUAL, 845.0, E".
|
|||
|
|
Within two seconds the freq 845.000 should pop up on the display.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Now you have completed the mod. for your scanner. I would now like
|
|||
|
|
to welcome you to the world of the forrbiden freqs.! You will now
|
|||
|
|
see the truth to the statement "Never say anything on a cellular
|
|||
|
|
phone that you do not want anyone else to hear." Unfortunately
|
|||
|
|
(but fortunately for us!!) there is an incredible number of people
|
|||
|
|
that do not know this and you will be suprised at the information
|
|||
|
|
broadcast across the airwaves.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Enjoy!
