I have one of those MFJ Multi-Multi coax switches too and it's very likely that it's the one I was using when the MFJ-259B blew. I guess I'll sell it (cheap) at the next ham fest. Thanks to all of yo
Sorry Bill, that was a U.S.-centric answer. (I fully agree with all points of your P.S.) 73 Rick in check in luggage for airport gorrillas to have fun with it. They open up suitcases, unpack things a
Yuri, with all respect, I tested and have "knowledge" of otherwise. I can't have "proof" (as you requested because that means someone else must be here) unless you are willing to accept the president
Hey Sinisa, what in the world are you trying to prove now? "Can I recommend a more repeatable noise figure test, which even doesn't require any signal on the band?" What is your point? Who among us i
This is the side of Sinisa that we all know and love! You know Sinisa, sometimes I begin to wonder if you are not a "Dr. Jeckel and Mr. Hyde"! ;-) 73 Rick set it Is this First thing one should do is
Thanks Sinisa, This time it was me playing "Mr. Hyde". (Sorry for the false accusation) It sure sounded to me like a useless thing to do however several have pointed out that it is indeed useful. My
Gary. Doug wasn't doing the software and that's where the work is now. 73 Rick Whos' going to fix / add features / impove the Orion now? Lee _______________________________________________ TenTec mai
Let's just say "Gud Luk" to Doug and be grateful for what he's achieved at Ten-Tec. I'm sure he's still a Ten-Tec fan, just as we are still Doug fans. 73 Rick It's true, Doug has left Ten Tec, see: h
One thing Al forgot to mention is that the roofing filters of the IC-7800 are at 64 MHz. It won't be easy for Icom to get them as effective as Ten-Tec's 9 MHz filters! 73 Rick --Original Message-- Fr
Sorry Al for misleading, but I thought Doug's main contribution was the "design of the integration of the software to the hardware" and not the actual dits-n-bits of the software (ie., DSP programmin
Alan, (and anyone else interested) I have a full description of the Delta I (580) available in a PDF file. This is a scanned in copy of the original Delta I brochure. It is nearly 1MB in size, though
Scott, When I had an OMNI VI+, I also considered replacing the roofing filter. Then in doing some research, I read somewhere that someone had tried this and it did not bring the expected results and
Here is a post I found regarding smaller roofing filters for the OMNI VI. Looks like it was from this reflector! 73 - Rick --Original Message-- the OMNI solid You can call discuss his thoughts. _____
Barry, I guess I'm guilty for doing what you dissagree with and I (respectfully) dissagree with you. I investigated doing this one year ago and then decided to drop the idea after reading servral pos
Paul has described today's business world in a nutshell. I couldn't more fully agree. (and not just in the U.S., Paul! - over here too). 73 Rick --Original Message-- From: tentec-bounces@contesting.c
I think the O'Reily Factor would be more appropriate ;-) The next thing you know, the Orion will be on "60 Minutes". 73 John / N0KHQ / St. Louis Always on 18.130 Antennas: You can build 'em better th
The BIG problem here in Germany is not so much the long-distance BPL, but rather the multitude of home-networks which are springing up daily using the electrical wiring as a transport media. Since mo
Nice "Icing on the Cake" to the broadband SSB thread. I'm only slightly bad at bandwidth consumption. I'm a middle of the road guy. I only do medium speed. I may peak at 40 to 50 wpm in contests, but
Jim, I haven't read that yet, but I have a question. Perhaps you are correct that it will be a bandwidth hog, but perhaps not. It is likely true that the single signal needs a wider bandwidth, but ca
Hi John, Let me share my experience with you, even though it does not exactly match the configuration you describe. I used an OMNI VI+ (similar in keying to the ORION) together with an Ameritron AL80
