Can you read and understand Schematic Diagram?
As to do it in a stage-by-stage, method is a lot work for me which I do not have at the moment.
I can probably draw a diagram so time next week, but I will not guarantee to do so as I am very busy.

Rick i would like to thank you again for the help on converting this radio over to a mosfet. I have received a lot of good compliments on this radio since this modification was done. Every one that i talk to says this radios modulation is louder and clearer than the galaxy saturn that i have been using that was set up nicely by a reputable CB shop. I guess it may be time to sell or trade the saturn. Thank you for sharing your knowledge it is greatly appreciated.
