Bob, sorry for not sending this to you, but questions are the same; ... could you post the link to the page, say monthly, when you post the rules for the reflector? 73 & DX, Gary - AB9M Sorry Gary, I
My TT-715 had a similar problem, the original switching wall wart went bad. When I sent the 715 only to Ten-Tec, they sent a new switching wall wart. 73 & DX, Gary - AB9M Just to remove one more poss
Slide the AUX ANT / AUX RX switch back and forth about 20 times...... often corrosion / oxidation causes weak receive; cleaning the switch will put things back to normal. 73 & DX, Gary - AB9M --Origi
About $600 tops.... I have one and am not looking for another. A couple years ago I had to have my 253 repaired and TenTec told me the repair was worth more than the value ($600) but I had the work d
Several of the locals and I use protection units formerly from I.C.E now available from Array Solutions (https://www.arraysolutions.com/Products/surge_arrestorAS-3xx.htm). I have no association or fi
I have a Ten Tec Model 263 VFO, which had the "jump" problem. The LED BARGRAPH Calibration procedure in the 263 manual fixed mine. You need a Corsair-II with working digital frequency readout to do t
On a model 263G, a 100k pot is across the A+B terminal on the oscillator board in the remote. I do not recall if the 243 does RAB (RX A + B), but if it does that's where to start looking for ways for
Several years ago I had a similar experience when I was having problems with my Model 253 Automatic Antenna Coupler (bad vacuum relay). I could have bought a new coupler / tuner for the cost of repai
I believe you could (or can) do diversity receive with a pair of OMNI-VIs (or a pair of any similar receivers which are stable and can track in frequency together). The other requirement is two anten
I have had both the 243 and 263 (with 546C and 561 XCVRS respectively. The main difference between the 243 and 263, is that the 263 has a balance "fader" control between the A (internal) and B (exter
Actually GMT and UTC are in Time Zone "Z" or "Zulu". See http://www.worldtimezone.com/ for the graphic note the Alphabetical time zone indicators at the bottom. At different times of my life Ive had
Dwight, I have used my CORSAIR-II for PSK-31 and RTTY. It is stable enough for both or at least mine has been for the QSOs I've made. My CORSAIR-II and matching remote VFO were bought new 10-21-88 ne
Rick, Carl's mod and a panadapter SDR in synch are great combination! The Y connector avoids a potentially problematic IF tap. I've been using the similar N4PY modification on my OMNI-VII for several
Rick, I have the N4PY sub-RX mod on my OMNI-VII with a FLEX-1500 with PowerSDR-2.5.3 with VAC for CWSkimmer feeding N1MM+ Bandmap, or PowerSDR-2.3.5 with VAC for WinWarbler 8.1.1 feeding SpotCollecto
Rick, I have hearing impairments, loss in one ear, nerve damage in the other, even with an external DSP (AOR TDF-370) driving muff style stereo headsets into Seimens In The Ear hearing aids with CW a
I also use the SDR panadapter as a visual tuning reference; many operators like to tune stations in for a soprano voice and as a result they are 200 Hz to 400 Hz off frequency. Or they try to tune in
The SDR with Skimmer (tenet server active) feeds the N1MM bandmap. N1MM identifies the mults, worked, etc on the map. 73 & DX, Gary - AB9M Barry, It is really quite fascinating, what all you can see
The OMNI-VII - front panel is ALL digital -- either switches (on / off ) or digital encoders.... some time in the not too distant future, you'll be able to buy the nice looking and weighted box with
Rick, you might consider an OMNI-VII with a FLEX-1500 sub-receiver using the N4PY modification. Carl and others have rig control software which will interface with both radios AND most contest softwa
