Cutting taken from web article:
This is how expand RX and TX range of Yaesu VX2E.
New range: TX: 120 to 220 MHz, and 300 to 500 MHz.
RX: 0,5-137, 137-174, 174-420, 420-470, 470-800, 805-999 MHz.
Remove the battery, and remove the adhesive under the battery.
Now you can see 8 jumpers.
Short only the JP2 and JP3. All other open. Replace the battery, then reset the radio by pressing simultaneously F, HM/RV and (88) (this strange button).. and power-on the radio.
If this procedure fail, shut down the radio, then try to reset again by pressing simultaneously BAND,H/L and V/M, then power-on again.
NOTE if you short also the JP4, with the same procedure as above, the new range you obtain is the following:
TX: 140-174 MHz, and 420-470 MHz;
RX: same as above.
I performed the first expansion, work well.

I know it’s obvious, but you must admit it’s still a little funny
