Thanks to you all for the many answers received on the subject, both on
the reflectors and via private messages. I answered directly to those who
kindly offered to be of help in building/providing such transformer.
It is really reassuring to see that the ham spirit is still alive, now with the
powerful support given by the Internet.

I contacted directly also the technical office of Kenwood Japan, but their
answer has been what was to be expected by such a giant organization.
I report it here following :

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your e-mail. Regarding your inquiry,
as you indicated, receiving sensitivity of TS-950SDX
in the low frequency band is inferior to the one of
TS-850. Regrettably, however, this receiving sensitivity
cannot be modified or improved by the change of parts,
etc.  We are obliged to ask you to use the model as
they are.

We are sorry that we cannot meet your requirement.
Sincerely,
(Tokyo, Japan)

Well, despite what they say, I am still deliberate in willing to do such
modification.
I will report the outcomes on the reflectors, for those interested.

Thanks again to all
