For what region version is the modification?  I have version S#01, which is the Japan use version.  The different regional versions have different diode matrix configurations.  Which nation do you reside?

I agree. I've heard Icom's 'version' or 'region' system described as a 'Byzantine obfuscation'. I doubt whether anyone in Icom Japan could now provide an answer (except 'if it needs programming send it back to the factory').

The bords inside the radio is normaly the same.
If you get a picture showing the diode matrix of the radios sold in your country and just replicate that you will get the same frequency range and features.
If it is a japaneese radio it might give less TX power because they have licens class that is only 50w i beleve.
