The S meter on my Omni 6 plus never goes above S 7. Any ideas what causes it? Bry Carling http://www.af4k.com http://alltheaboveband.com I think it's kind of nice to have some S meter reading when I'
Yes, I will try that. Maybe it took a bump in shipping. Bry Carling http://www.af4k.com http://alltheaboveband.com Alignment/meter calibration would be my first thoughts... Cecil Sent from my iPad On
Yes. It does not appear to be an alignment issue. The same problem prevails on all bands. Also my CW keyer speed range is way too fast. Therefore difficult to adjust. Bry Carling http://www.af4k.com
Exactly what I have... Thanks. Bry Carling http://www.af4k.com http://alltheaboveband.com A mis-alignment of the S meter would be the same on all bands... ____________________________________________
Curt, it sounds RF could be getting back into the letter wiring and triggering it falsely. Did you check the ground wiring. Bry Carling http://www.af4k.com Sometimes the keyer on my recently purchase
This is getting fairly esoteric. Like... If a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to listen does it make a sound? Answer: Yes of course it does. Bry Carling http://www.af4k.com http://allthe

I have a Tentec 422 Centurion that is blowing the main 20 Amp fuses... Looking for insights to this amp failure. It started spontaneously. I can turn on the main power OK and the filaments light up o
Thanks Rod and PC. I already tried disconnecting the plate transformer secondary and it still blew fuses. I think I have a bad transformer. I will check it further but looks like a serious expense to
Thanks Bob, but the power transformer is shot. It spontaneously died for no apprent reason. Tubes are not shorted, and the rectoifoers amd cap are intact. One of the two primary windings has shorted
Thanks so much Bob... The choices are rough - $500 plus shipping for a new transformer from Tentec or $385 plus shipping both ways for a rewind job! Yes, we get lightning, but this occurred when ther
Thanks - I really appreciate the sage advice from you guys... it's a pity that the primary fuses and inrush circuit didn't properly protect the transformer, but to be fair it is an old one. Serial nu
Thanks Stuart. I will probably go with Gary Brown, WZ1M. Hammond does not answer their phone message sor e-mails, and Tentec wants $565.50 plus crating and shipping. A bit prohibitive considering tha
Thanks Cecil - yes I will try to get mine overwound slightly while it is being rewound. Hammond is the seller of the Dahl transfoemer line now, but they are not taking care of business. Zero response

Nope. The power switch only sends power to pilot lamps and filaments on mine. The standby switch energizes relays that apply primary power up the HV transformer. Best regards - Bry Carling __________
Nope the testing was done as follows: Applied 120 VAC to the secondary. Then check with AC VOLTMETER on the primaries. One showed 3.65 v and the other showed zero. The good primary reads 0.5 ohms and
Keep a spare transformer handy. They are $565.00 plus CRATING charge AND shipping from Tentec. Not sure where they get them but guess there is some mark up. The insulation gets cracked, old, dry and
Ten Tec has some very good detailed instructions on tuning in their manuals. It is quite clear. I apologize for any duplicate messages today. My iPhone was misbehaving again ! Best regards - Bry Carl
