       Galaxy DX-959 Clarifier (Unlock) Modification
       Some people claim that "unlocking a clarifier to slide at least
       a full channel up or down is the only way to go". But isn't that
       what the channel selector knob is for?
       In reality and simplicity, the purpose of having an unlocked
       clarifier for talking on sideband is to match your transmitting
       frequency with the other person's receive frequency making
       communications much easier.
       if your clarifier is unlocked and you tune them in on receive,
       you will also transmit on the same frequency. And this mod
       excels at accomplishing that task very well.  Still want to get
       to the "A" channels?
       Well, there's a 10kc mod for that as well. First things first.
       Read on...
       There are currently several known ways to unlock the clarifier
       on the DX-959. Here are two:
       Method 1:
       First, remove power (unplug) to the radio. Remove the bottom
       chassis cover of the radio.
       Remove JP195 and JP196.
       Connect a jumper wire between J14 pin +8V and J9 pin F1.
       Method 2:
       Remove power (unplug) to the radio. Remove the bottom chassis
       cover of the radio.
       Remove R113 and D68.
       Connect a jumper wire between J14 pin +8V and J9 pin F1.
