If your scout is like mine, there's no need to remove anything on the front panel. By removing the top you need to remove the board above the meter. This is just a set of screws and a few plugs. You
Well, since you're not that old, just pick a rig that you know the technology factor, time frame and price level and go for it. Used gear is not hard to find since the advent of the internet which y
What's likely happened is that when you pulled the external speaker plug out of the jack, the connection on the jack did not return to its normal function. You could plug and unplug the external spea
I discovered that my main reciever will not hear anything past 3.960 on 75 meters. From there to the band edge at 4.000mhz there is silence on the main rcvr only. The entire band up to that point wor
I have Orion serial # 10654 with a 10c prefix, which means a production date of Oct. '04. I bought it used and found a 40khz band segment missing on 75meters. I was told this was a synthesizer alignm
What's the drift of the conversation about version 2? Is it imminent? Anticipation is exciting, but if it's ready for prime time, Im looking forward to trying it out. Ben K8DIT
Pete, Of the many mobile hams I know something about, the Scout gets picked fewer times than not, but I don't understand why. Ive used the Scout mobile and the NB is a necessary accessory cutting the
Hey Roy, Anticipating RFI, knowing what it is and understanding what to do about it is far different from what the folks who complain about it on the internet ham forums such as this. If you begin wi
Anyone doing digital voice over the hf bands? Id be interested in any reports of kits, gear, software that claims to do this. Im aware of AOR's voice modem, but their new AOR9000 is not on the shelve
The VI has a PLL that incorporates those single crystals/band in a synthesized scheme that mixes and feedsback, get divided, multiplied, phased and split, then poured into glasses and served with lem
Chuck, Its time to jiggle and diddle. You may have a trace lifting. Once you trace to a board that acts up you might try using some component cooler to pinpoint the problem. If this technique is not
Heard on the air over the weekend. That's the news from Lake Jobegon. The radio here is a Ten Tec, where all the rigs are strong and all the Amps are good lookin', and all the recievers are ABOVE ave
You will be ecstatic with the additional performance and features available on the Jupiter. Your antenna farm will determine alot, hopefully they are optimized to your satisfaction. Check out all the
If once you have the Jupiter you are plagued with BCB front end overload, simply place a high pass filter ahead of the transciever. I use an ICE 402X, there are others, or, build one to suit if you a
It seems to me that your description of the reason you didnt like the transceiver weren't as you first reasoned. Its kinda quirky that detractors of the Jupiter don't like it for one special reason a
I like the premise W3KC has. Keep it simple. The Scout is a perfect platform to update whatever mobile Ten Tec might have in mind, though I think that 's already been done with the Argonaut V. If I w
Here's the way I use it. After finding a signal Im interested in, usually in less than optimal condx., and have used all the other controls at hand to tune it in, I then hit the LP button. If I think
