Let's put to bed the idea that mismatched loads should not be an issue. I have 2 Palstar tuners, an AT5K and a BT1500A. Great high quality products. Mismatched loads "should not" be an issue. However
Hold on there. Then you'd have to share your toys and some of the time at the key. I'm very fortunate like that, too. We bought this home (1.6 acres) just so I could have a 100 ft tower (in the spri
Rebuild is a relatively easy job. Worst part is getting the PTO in and out of the rig. By all means do it yourself. I've done over a dozen and they keep getting easier. No need to realign. Just remov
Chris, A TT power supply is definitely the best option for protection of your rig. It sounds as if you are doing the right thing by tuning at low power. I've had about a dozen Omni D;s (there's one o
As I recall, the 962 is like a 961 except that the regulation is in the negative rather than the positive lead Dave WA3F It might be similar to the 960 and there's a schematic for the 960 at: http://
If you want something a bit smaller that fits under the dash for mobile, it's OK. Otherwise, the Omni D or C, Corsair or Omni VI+ will blow it away Dave WA3MKB The Delta II is one of my favorite Ten-
Here's the URL to the page on TenTecWiki with a photo of the mounting http://tentecwiki.org/doku.php?id=296 Dave WA3MKB If someone had a photo of one of the TenTec ones I am sure I could fab one up.
This one has been beaten to death and back on this reflector recently. John has even given the reasoning from TenTec . Many times when I tell a fellow ham that I use a TenTec -- the first resp[onse
I have 2 Omni VI+ and have had 3 Omni VI Opt3, and I have never had a report that the keying is anything but excellent. Yes, I have used external keyers, but presently use only the built-in keyer in
Different strokes for different folks. Each must live by his/her own standards. I choose to not use a cluster or CW copying software. The technology is there if I want it. The choice is mine. Then ag
OK, so I 'googled' Farnell 1169747. Got lots of hits on that. hERE ARE SOME OF THE url'S http://uk.farnell.com/multicomp/mc17-01b-5/plug-uhf-large-cable-entry-rg213/dp/1169714 http://www.farnell.com/
I just checked Amphenol web sites. They make a compression UHF connector, but only in the smaller RG-58 size. If you want a UHF for RG-213 the only thing they offer is a crimp connector. In any of th
As for PayPal, it is very convenient and works well Now about buying on eBay. You have no more idea about the rig you are buying than any other one you don't see. qth.com and the other sites are no d
John, TenTec has a used one for $3495. Of course, that includes return policy and a warranty, so the fair value would be something less than that. Dave WA3MKB Hello Folks..... What is a fair market p
Yes, I deleted an e-mail from her also. Said she got the info from this site Dave WA3MKB Hello I have not been receiving much mail from this, and other reflectors to which I subscribe. I tried contac
With a budget in the $600 to $1800 range, you can do quite well in a TT rig, Please understand that because of the way the protective circuitry in TT rigs is set up, it is best to run with a TT powe
I get the same resuolts as Ken. My Omni VI+ drives my Herc II to full output at about 35 watts output. Now we'll have to listen to all the complaints that TenTec watts are less than the competitions
Jerry, Well said. Thank you for stating what I believe is the frustration of the 'silent majority' on this reflector with the vocal few. Dave WA3MKB I come to the Ten-Tec Reflectors for information a
