I just did this mod to one of my '...PD18', and I used a 22.0k resistor. This mod with this value of resistor changed the output voltage from (measured) 12.5 to 13.4 volts, without adjustment. I left it there as it's close enough, and I wish to avoid any trouble. I *just* used it to power a 100 watt HF transmitter and it worked fine. Thank you for the information.

Have you tried adjusting the over-current protection circuit? Does anyone know how? I have the voltage set right where I want it. I have used the supply successfully with several radios, but when I try to power my FT-847 the supply trips when I turn the radio on. The radio FT-847 works just fine with my Jetstream switch mode supply. I am guessing the instantaneous current when I turn the 847 on is tripping the supply, but would listen to other theories!

Ham Radio manufacturers specify 13.8 volts + or - 15% for input power. This supply with no modifications to the circuit board can be adjusted to 12.7 volts which is well within the 15%. I have had no problems running my radios with the 12.7 volts. It's almost impossible to solder that resistor to the pot on the board. Your value for that resistor is 20K Ohms yet another video with the same modifications calls for 2.2k. I could not get either one to work with my supple so I adjusted it to 12.7 and it works fine.
@tedhancock68

I can confirm that 20K is much closer to the correct value, and that this works to 13.8 volts. I used a trim pot, so I'm not exactly sure of the final value. The multimeter doesn't give correct values once this is soldered in place. Also, there is a test pad to ground very close to that trim. Therefore the final mod need not be bigger than 1 cm. However, I feel that the supply is now too unstable. It almost trips the breaker on power up each time. Also, I need 14.7 volts in series (29.4v = 7S) and can't figure out how to disable the OVP. Likely I will just go back to stock.

They are ridiculously cheap for what they are. Not all Chinese-made stuff is crap, these are an industrial grade SMPS. I have 18 units of the 1200W version. I'm in the process of floating the output by insulating the appropriate metal stand-offs in the case. File back the stand-offs, then use nylon washers and screws. This allows for series and/or parallel configuration.

I doubt that these PSU are clean on their HF spectrum. Without any filtering on the secondary side you could easy load up your portable or nearby #HF antenna with unwanted #RF noise. You need some sort of filtering. If you like to get more evidence on that topic just have a look at Roberts video. kzitem.info/news/bejne/kqF8p62Xnnqohm0 I made the same experience. Be careful with open PSUs ... 73 es all the best
