I have one of these and use it with my 599 when not operating off the marine battery. I also use it on the bench where the current metering and adjustable voltage are handy for experimenting. Voltage
Hook up a dummy load. Drop power to 10W. Hopefully the high SWR does not throttle at low power. Take tuner out of line. Do the SWR readings disagree? I would suspect SWR detector or filter board. Try
I found a used TT Centaur. It'a a little pricey so I would like to sell the FL2100B before buying. Yaesu FL2100B is clean inside and out with Cetron tubes. It has not ben modified/molested/renovated/
Mike I already have an Eagle. IIRC it was $1600. It went back to TN twice, got replaced, and the replacement had to go back once. I used it maybe a month of the first 6 months owned. It was in TN the
Paul et-al If one is to be successful in a crowded market, one has to offer something that is both different and desirable. Low price helps too :-) There is a segment of the market that will try almo
I traded for a Yaesu FL2100B today. It looks pretty good for it's age. The FL2100B uses 2 x 572B tubes and has a 50Hz rated power transformer. It will run a solid 600W out all day long. It is NOT QSK
Thanks Rick! I am waiting for MFJ 9296. Should be here any day now. Circuit is basic ne602 either side of 4 pole filter. It looks like a bargain for 6 bands. Expect me from NPOTA at Chattahoochee Riv
I am not seeing these dumped IC7300's. Tell me where to look please. I see them at $1400 new. I'm considering selling off one or two boat anchors and getting a fancy new mobile rig. Fancy new being
I took a look at QTH.com Least expensive is $1285. One 3rd hand for $1350! New from DXengineering $1399 including shipping. Warranty does not transfer. I don't know about other folks, but anything mo
I had the opportunity to tune around with an Icom IC7300 during yesterday's CW contest. It's an impressive radio for $1400. If I did not already own an Eagle, I'd seriously consider the 7300. I did n
I think I know the problem. I strongly suspect that upon closer examination, rick will find that his 515, in addition to having an inverted sideband on 80 is also tuning backwards! Someone has peaked
Sorry Joe We'll have to wait for Rick to get back to his bench to know if it's a good guess. Here's how I arrived at the guess. 80 bad 40 OK suggests that the LSB line is not 'stuck'. Toggling it to
Upon close inspection I see the 5.5.5 is direct coupled on 20 while the 12.5-13 is filtered. I still won't be surprised if it is making it straight through. I need better glasses :-) 73, -Bob ah7i/w4
Gary If you do a search for "oversampling and dynamic range" you'll get a lot of info. This explains it pretty well. http://www.atmel.com/images/doc8003.pdf IIRC I mentioned a link to an analog devic
It still does not explain how you can digitize a signal with amplitude that is 140 dB signal above one LSB using a 16 bit A to D. -- This is not how it works. The gain is NOT adjusted to make the wea
Dr Gary It might be helpful to consider extremes. One bit sampling. The only information collected is whether the current sample is greater than or less than the preceding sample. This is one bit A/D
