Can anybody tell me if it is possible to swap something between the radios to get a 760 channel 197 and 720 channel 196? Many Thanks Peter ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 01:16:57 PM PST US From: "Wayne @ Aircraft Engravers" Subject: Re: Avionics-List: KY197/KY196 --> Avionics-List message posted by: "Wayne @ Aircraft Engravers" Peter, Why would you want to do such a thing. To my understandings it's possible but you would have to have an avionics shop do the work for around 2 to 3 hundred dollars each.

If memory serves the KY-197 is 14vdc powered and the KY-196 is 28vdc powered. Service Bulletin KY196-12 changes the channel spacing from 50KHz to 25KHz. Service Bulletin KY196-16 increases the frequency range up to 138.975MHz. Service Bulletin KY196-20 increased the frequency range up to 136.975MHz. Service Bulletin KY197-13 changes channel spacing from 50KHz to 25KHz. That is all the applicable SB's I was able to find. The listing of Service Bulletins is searchable in www.bendixking.com. USA you do not need 760 channel, only in Europe. At least so far.........we don't use any channel above 135.975. Best Wishes, Tom
