Hi Tim, Are you having the same chronic xmit problems that I'm having with my Jupe?'Cause I'm getting rid to unload mine too;have had enuff!!! 73 de W4NJF that the on
Relative to the Orion discussion several days ago, here is the info Scott W4PA promised. Even if you don't have an Orion, there is a lot of interesting info about how to use some of the technology wh
In defense of Stan and the factory and the "famous" Ten Tec service, let me relate to you an experience I had.... During the telephone sale, back in March of this year, I ordered a demo Pegasus. Alon

likelihood is very high that an Icom IC-756PRO2 or an IC-746PRO will play directly out of the box with all advertised features working to spec and will continue to do so without requiring any mods, u
While I'm on my soapbox, here's another thing that some companies (NOT TenTec) are guilty of...misleading marketing hype: "Announcing the IC-7800! At the 2003 Hamvention ICOM America proudly introduc
Because you can hear both stations does not mean that they can hear each other. This is one problem with the secondary allocation concept. One Primary station sending a signal to another may have goo
I thought it was a constellation. One of our very active shortwave listeners here in Lexington,KY lives on Orion Ave. They were renaming some of the streets due to confusion of similar names and he w
The Human ear and its associated processor (the human brain) works very well. I wonder if there has ever been a real study on the usefulness of DSP in communications situations where adaptive noise r
The best we had until Collins introduced the noise blanker was noise limiters. But usually they produced some distortion. A few had a means of self adjustment so that they would not produce much dist
There's a nice write-up on Ten-Tec/ON4UN/Orion in the July/August issue of The DX Magazine by Lynn, W4NL. <... and gee wiz, Scott ... a TIE? Did they force that?> 73 Billy AA4NU
Hi George! Doubtlessly, the roofing filters improve the ORION performance - the coming ARRL Labs tests will quantify this. But owners of the RX-340, Pegasus and Jupiter and now the Argo, all with IF-
Mike, My new (to me) Argo V with the v 1.07 has both LSB and RIT indicators working. The RIT LED only lights when you have an actual offset on the RIT. The Attenuator also now has an indicator (A) up
Switching at this higher IF frequency is difficult. The resistance of the switch must be very low compared to the source resistor's value and have low inductance. A tiny reed switch perhaps would wor
All you need is a reasonably fast PC, shareware program and audio cables plus a simple interface to key the transmitter when transmitting. Not needed if you have VOX. This cable usually has a couple
Some generator dB Megawatt I remember someone asking me what mmfd was. He had a very old schematic diagram. I said "it is milli-milli-femto-deci and when it gets that small the units really don't mat
