I have a completely rebuilt A9 board. It is $125. Gary If you want to build your own board, the connectors are really common, my local surplus store, Ax Man in Saint Paul, has piles of them.

Not sure what you mean by eBay prices, since many items I sell on eBay sell for less than they sell for on QTH and similar sites In any case, I have the speaker bracket and the rear panel connector,
I have a pair of "Tires" for Paragon, Omni 5, 6 Orion main tuning knob. These are the ones that have the little gray sub-tire. These are New in Baggie and includes the little note Ten Tec sent, along
I have an Omni 6 on the bench now so I can check the gain of the 9 MHz board but showing a 7 dB net loss seems a bit high. You can rune out the filter (which I have found to be bad in a few cases) by
It may take a few days but I will try to get the data you need. Gary PS: I would focus on a single point failure. It is not likely that you would have two separate failures so keeping focused on loca
I agree. The elastic band Ten Tec used to pull the dial pointer back was ingenious in terms of value and simplicity. However, that stuff does not last forever. I have found very good replacement elas
OK, with so many projects on the platter, and no real desire to actually finish and use a linear amplifier, I feel compelled to give up on the conversion project on my Titan II amplifier. I have comp
I have four of the stock 2.4 Hz SSB filters on hand. These are used in the 2nd IF of Omni 5, Omni 6, Paragon(s) and Corsair(s). There may be some models I missed. These sometimes do go bad so if you
Mainstream sellers are hard to come by, thats for sure. I have had great luck with eBay seller Littlediode. I have gotten many parts from them, all of them worked. Now as to your specific problem - I
My two cents: I have had a dozen Orions and maybe 5 Orion 2s. I buy them, repair them, use them for a while to enjoy them, test them then sell them. The Orion radios are VERY easy to service (all but
To remove the VFO knob, you pull the rubber tire off the OD of the knob. There are two set screws (Allen) under that tire. You should easily be able to see the problem. Most likely the felt pads on t
Join the club on S meter calibration. Not a single radio I have e ver seen had good S meter linearity until Ten Tec came up with the multipoint calibration, a process that stores a graph of S meter r
I assume it works OK on receive The Scout is a pretty simple radio to follow. Your first step is to determine if there is significant RF at the input to the final amplifier. It should be significant
Actually the output SHOULD go away when operating into high SWR loads. This is the radios way of protecting itself from such conditions and is entirely normal. The fact that the radio operates well i
