Steve it has been a long time since I got mine but I had a friend install
the filter which is soldered in and he had to use a mag glass. My X Y L
helped me install the voice mod. The two jacks on front are the Paddel and
the right one is for Ex. keyer. Topfone jack, right is Mic and I forgot
what the other one is, the rig is out in my R V and I'm getting old so
can't remember a lot lately Hi Hi.
