Congratulations on a successful repair job - self-help and home repair is in the finest of ham tradition. There are few events which provide such a heady sense of self-satisfaction than a touchy repa
Holy Cow, Mike... all those TT products just stacked on top of more TT products ! It is er ... like ... a shrine. Happy days, OM -- K8JHR -- I've made a bit of progress cleaning out some small parts
Er... I think it makes you nauseated... If you are nauseous, that makes US feel sick. ;-) But, your point is certainly well placed ! (Hoping all will forgive me for giving Dave some heat... and hopin
I have downloaded and saved all of your pictures. I'm going to paste them all together, then next time my XYL says I have too much stuff, I'll pull out the picture of your stuff and tell her how luc
Greetings Ten-Tec Mavens - I cannot remember if I returned to say THANK YOU for the many replies I received, both on and off list, to my questions about using my new Model 238C tuner awhile back. If
Man... that would be totally aggravating. \ I cannot explain what is causing it, but I think your description makes sense. At least that is a start. Have you tried installing N1MM logger fresh - afte
Thanks, Tony. I have often wondered about those. I will renew my interest therein forthwith. Happy trails. -- K8JHR -- use a Palstar "tuner-tuner" .... TenTec has the same unit available in a kit for
Greetings - I recently built a Model 1225 SWR/Watt meter kit. At first, it was easy to align it, and it worked as expected. Now, maybe a month or so later, I cannot get the SWR (return power) meter t
____________________________________________ 600 ohms, while that of the 707 is > 50k ohms. The O2 specs call for >10k. __________________________________________ Hmmm... Not sure, but... I don't thi
Geeze, that is quite a story, Mike. I am hearing the voice of John Cameron Swayze in the background saying, "It take a licking, and keeps on ticking." So I guess your rig passed the "burn in" test...
Whew.... I am glad you said that. I always turn my remote switch to the dummy load or to a ground buss when shutting the station down... some of the local rabble chided me for being paranoid and over
FURTHER FOLLOW UP... It appears I am on my own... and I managed to resolve my outstanding questions and concerns, and the headset has been modified and adapted for use with my transceivers. No Pin 1
Good luck and break a leg in the Contest, JB. == K8JHR == I just packed the Herc II to take it .... for the California QSO Party this weekend. ________________________________________________
I agree... Bob has been a huge help to me. I purchased an Omni VII as my very first ham radio. I got severely flamed for my very first question on the Omni VII discussion group. Only Bob and a guy na
I remember the thread, Rick... in part, because I started it. We had issues between four TenTec rigs and four Elecraft rigs. The single band, band pass filter was the only suggestion proffered at the
I was reading the contesting section of the ON4UN low band DX'ing book and see that a pair of 1/4 wave stubs separated by a 1/4 wave of coax makes for a highly effective bandpas filter. If they have
That does not sound like good advice. Without more than your "memory" of a possible problem you sorta, but not really recall... that is a pretty draconian solution for what might be a simple problem.
We are simply asking for experience with the TS-590. I'm thinking the TS-590 is a random noise generator! After receiving information I have received (off-reflector) I honestly believe that. OK... p
Rick -- we need to take this off the TenTec list. It really does not belong here. Calling me names and measuring my purported ignorance is something we should slog out in private. And the bulk of the
I think I would hang it and just see how it works, while carefully documenting impedance and other data for various frequencies and bands. I believe ANY nearby large object, especially one of made of
