OK. To restore the mod circuit without the noise:
On the bottom of the CPU board, cut the trace from pin 2 of CN06;
solder a wire from pin 2 to the free end of R9 (the resistor previously
desoldered).
The correct end is the one closest to CN05.
This should restore all VCO mod functions, without the bleed through.

As Andrew stated in another post, this is probably due to an incomplete
battery leak repair job.
Could be a latch, data line, etc.
