These modifications apply to PK-232s with serial numbers under 1000.
Four simple hardware modifications improve the PK-232's performance.
1. Change C54 from: 0.1 mfd 10% mylar (increase low-frequency rolloff)
to: 0.01 mfd 10% mylar
2. Change U16 from: 74LS04 (do this only if bbRAM does NOT hold memory)
to: 74HC14
3. Change R35 from: 20K 5% (improve VHF/Morse sensitivity)
