        Here is the expanded TX mod for the Alinco DR-130:
1. Open the top of the case by removing the three screws.
2. Locate the blue loop of wire near the display, facing toward you.
3. cut the blue loop of wire, and tape up the ends. 
4. replace cover of the radio.
5. reset the radio by holding the function key down and turning on the power.

        Here is also a cute little mod for the display:

Insted of seeing frequency display (147.585 etc.) You can have it read out like 
a business band radio (CH-1) by holding the VFO/M/W key and turning on the power
.

        I hope these come in usefull, and if anybody knows anymore mods for the 
DR-130 let me know.
