David, I have them all, but find myself using the 300 Hz filter only in contest situations. Otherwise, I toggle back and forth between 600 and 1.8. That's for CW -- someone else will have to respond
I use auto filter selection after I've decided which of the optional filters I want to enable. The narrower the filter, the more insertion loss, so you don't want to enable the narrowest filters unle
I never had a 565 Orion, but I do see noticeable attenuation with the 300 Hz filter and slight attenuation with the 600 Hz. My default operating position is 600 Hz enabled, 300 Hz off. 73, Ray W2RS _
I hear a sliight echo when listening to Main and Sub, but no over-weighting. The rise/fall setting makes no discernible difference to my Sub sidetone (2.038k). I normally leave it at 5 ms. 73, Ray W2
I just tried RIT and XIT here, and they're normal. 73, Ray W2RS _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/
The price is not in the DEMI catalogue because their 6m transverter is out of stock and "temporarily" out of production. Besides moving to Florida, DEMI is awaiting parts for a re-designed unit. No w
I never had a Gotham antenna because they seemed rather cheesy. Instead, in 1956, I homebrewed a Gotham vertical lookalike from some aluminum tubing and B& W coil stock. The good news is that it stay
Hi all, I just had an e-mail from Gary at T-T in response to my ditsnbits note. He said that a fix to the stacking-register problem is in the works and should be released next week. T-T listens! 73,
Hi, I don't do much SSB operating myself, but I've been reading the mail here about the O2's DSP NR on SSB, or perhaps the lack of it. I've done a fair bit of listening for BS7H on SSB during the las
Hi, I know this sounds like a stupid question, but i haven't encountered this situation before, so please humor me along. As you can now see, this situation comes up only once a year. Tnx & 73, Ray W
Carl and others, Tnx for that info. It's working OK now, as long as I don't try to run split and use the sub rx for the out-of-band station. 73, Ray W2RS _____________________________________________
Just worked NAV4. He's on 14.467, listening on 14.319. 73, Ray W2RS _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listi
Yes, mine does too, with v2.039d. I also appreciate the fix of the band-stacking registers. Like you, though, I've had my AGC slope set to 'Flat' and can't see much, if any, change. If it ain't broke
Yes, I only notice it when headphones are plugged in, and in my case it isn't severe enough to warrant doing anything about it. Simply moving the headphone cable is usually enough to clear it up for
PS. It also happens on CW. If it only happened on SSB, I wouldn't have noticed it :-) 73, Ray W2RS _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lis
What I hear in the headphones is a "classic" RF hum. I don't know what the "sidetone artifact" problem refers to, but since I don't know, I probably don't have it :-) ________________________________
My experience with the O II tracks Bernie's. I've had this particular one for more than a year (my earlier one had hardware problems and was replaced by TT), have gone through all the firmware update
Paul, I've had my Argonaut V for more than 2 years and use it mostly on CW. The receiver is very good indeed, especially for the price. On CW it runs rings around the IC-706MkIIG that I borrowed befo
I don't know about the Netherlands, but I'm looking at the latest issue of RSGB's RadCom. The 566 Orion II is advertised there at GBP 3349, which works out to $6745 at the exchange rate in today's ne
