Description
Ten-Tec Model BL-538K factory blue LCD display upgrade kit (also called the Blue Screen Modification Kit)
This Kit is new in the original Tec-Tec box. A Rare find!
The Ten-Tec Model BL-538K is a factory blue LCD display upgrade kit (also called the Blue Screen Modification Kit) specifically for the Ten-Tec Jupiter Model 538 HF transceiver—designed to replace the original green/yellow LCD with a modern blue-backlit display for improved readability, modern aesthetics, and better contrast (especially in varying lighting).Key Features & Specs
- Upgrade Details: Includes a new blue LCD module, mounting hardware (standoffs), firmware update (MP538K) for compatibility, and step-by-step instructions (detailed PDF available from Ten-Tec archives).
- Compatibility: Fits early Jupiter 538 models (green screen versions); transforms the rig's look to match later factory black-case/blue-screen Jupiters (introduced around 2008–2009).
- Benefits: Sharper text, easier viewing, and a premium feel—many owners report it as a worthwhile mod for aging displays prone to lines or fading.
- Build/Install: Straightforward user-installable modification (no soldering required for most steps); follows Ten-Tec's official guide with photos.
