Any one know the trick for the secret so called SuperSlider mod to alter the way fine clarifier works? Would be nice to lock it to tx and rx along with the coruse. Thanks

Check and see if this is what you are looking for, [Please login or register to view this link] . I am still looking for a mod to increase the unlocked clarifier range of the 949/959, would like to get a +/- 5kc spread.

I believe it is the same board , the only difference is the amp section making the 98 a HP radio.

Looks like removing R113 and D68 then powering F1 with 8 volts
That look right to you MD? also looks close to the dx2517 EPT690010C

The Galaxy DX95T had that "SuperSlider" feature, a front panel switch over the clarifier controls, it switched out the RX/TX-RX on the fine control. For some reason I can't get the schematic to download on my computer, it gets about half and stops. It looks like it is as simple as moving the sweep constant voltage like the 959, the circuit has the same VR7 in it as the 959, compare the schematics and see what you think.
