I wonder what the color code is for a zero ohm resistor?


I can hear it now:
 -
Resistance is futile!

There is a zero ohm resistor which acts as a jumper.  Some of the
do-it-yourselfers  crush it with needle nose pliers, or cut in half with
an x-acto knife.  The more  genteel unsolder one end and lift one side
so it can be replaced later if needed.  It's the same mod as for MARS
and opens up tx  across the board, not just 60 meters.  The internal
tuner in the 2000 won't work on  the 60 meter band.
