Well actually, I'm on vacation this week so I decided to dive into 
my DX-440 and found no diodes currently installed at locations 
D404,D405,D406. Put a small signal diode in at D404 ... and found
out that it does indeed *restrict* scanning above 26100KHz. Not
exactly what I was looking for, so I took it back out.

Yeah, so will mine ... but I can't *hear* anything! Except background
static. No CB, no 10m ham. 

Can any other DX-440 users out there pick up signals above 21600KHz ???
