If anyone is interested, following below is the TX mod for the new
Yaesu FT-890 HF rig.  I copied it from Packet, but have not tried it.

 General Coverage TX Modification for Yaesu FT-890
  -------------------------------------------------
 
 1.  Remove top and bottom covers.
 2.  Remove the two side-mounted screws that will allow the front panel
     to hinge forward.
 3.  Look for jumper spot JM3001 on the display unit. It is located
     behind the front panel, near the top edge of the board. It is very
     small and has a circle around it. Make a solder bridge across
     JM3001 with a fine-tipped iron.
 4.  Turn power on and off.
 5.  With power off, press and hold PROC, AGC-F, IPO, and ATT buttons
     simultaneously (you may need an extra hand! :).
 6.  While pressing these buttons, turn the power back on.
 7.  The display will show two digits and "on" or "off". Rotate the main
     dial to make it display "02-on".
 8.  Press PROC button to write the data to memory.
 9.  Turn the power off and remove the solder bridge from JM3001.
 10. Reassemble the radio. The modification is complete.
 
 DISCLAIMER: I have verified this modification, but I do not assume
 any responsibility for anyone's ability to duplicate it. Proceed
 at your own risk.
