In

calculator.el

is written:

(defvar calculator-mode-map nil
  "The calculator key map.")

(or calculator-mode-map
  (let ((map (make-sparse-keymap)))

...

(calculator-decimal     "." [kp-decimal])

From there I guess it might be sufficient to change the
sign here, load again, ready.

As I don't use `calc' until now, just that idea.
