"I had read the previous review about the modification of opening up the transmitter and removing the gold mesh. I did this and it works perfectly now. One trick I learned is that to open it you have to cut the rubber pad on the bottom. The trick is to take a knife and cut a slit in the rubber pad al …"  Read Full Review »
