All those caps in the ICOMs make them a PITA to do my PTC thermistor
mod: they all have to come out! I've only moded one ICOM so far & I'm
not sure I ever want to do another.
Yet another reason for me to stick with MVPs, as the crystal modules
only have 1 temperature-compensating cap, if any. Removing the
slightly temperature-sensitive varactor improves the stability even
further.
