Replacements are easy, take an knitted glove, cut the fingers off and use a rubber band to hold them on. If grand children leave them around - a better fit. That way you can finger more DX! Sorry to
Mike, it looks like you have only beaten the "sickness of the mind" half way - but it sure is a nice looking arrangement. Happy New year and many there eb many more great photos to share. Kris KM2KM

Dave, A wild guess based on the only failure on my Delta since brand new -- On of the issues over the years, that is from the beginning of the Delta II was that there were surface mounted "vxo" secti
Dick, I'd go for a VERTICAL and use the pool structure for radials. A light Aluminum "Flag pole" (if need be) does not weigh much. Of course, if you can do the flag pole then you could use that to ho

Good morning John, I should have checked the email more often. Well, I was CW with 5 Watts and 10 Watts on SSB with my Tentec Delta II and QRP will work on 160, the noise is the big problem. In the W
Herman, The 936 matched the Delta II - I bought both at the same time and that is the way the TenTec catalogue at that time showed it. The power cord is a three wire type molded into the usual plug.
I came to know Ten-Tec through a good friend KV1A (SK). He had Ten-Tec gear and spoke highly of the rigs. He also received my signals from overseas an patched me into the family. My rig was (I still
Mike, the Delta IIs were (are?) notorious from having issues on the VCO boards. I bought mine new and had to send it back a few times. After the first Tentec did the repair work - no charge. It seems
Steve, Tank you for bringing this up. A couple of months ago teher was a thread here about the right cable - I immediately picked up one cable and then was distracted. I haven't the foggiest idea but
