Personal opinion follows.......
In a word, YUK!
It's like jacking up a Jeep and putting a Corvette engine, transmission
and wheels under it. What you end up with is neither a Jeep nor a
Corvette, but a collection of parts.
Much better to sell the TR-7, take the money you'd spend on the
"improvements", and buy a new YaeComWood.

Hello,
Did anyone read the article on modernizing a TR-7 by DK4DDS. It has
information on adding a ton of features, such as DSP Noise reduction,
curing the PTO Drift, Notch Filter, Improving the sensevity on the
higher bands, Speech Processor and a bunch of others. It is some great
food for thought, for bringing a great radio into the 21st Century.
Great Stuff. I'm thinking very hard about trying most of them out.
Most of them do not require modifing the original Circuit boards, just
adding boards. If anybody had some comments/information on these mods,
I sure would be interested.
Best,
