Yup a bad example. Not as sensitive and not as readily checked. With line input to the radio, the radio isn't nearly so sensitive to ground loop problems so only cables SHOULD be enough interface. I

When you inject a tone below the cutoff frequency of a high pass filter, often it takes very little distortion to make the second or third harmonic show up in the pass band of that high pass filter.

It probably depends on which Tentec? In my Corsair II schematic, I see there are two PIN diodes on the low pass filter board that are reverse biased to isolate the receiver (that's unhooked by the au

Kit with rebuilding instructions is about $25 from TenTec. Sometimes lubrication is all the PTO needs, but often parts are worn that come in the kit. 73, Jerry, K0CQ

The drive is spring loaded but when the vernier balls and race wear, the shaft develops end play and the PTO isn't far from the internal speaker that makes noise for side tone while sending CW too. W

There was a serious groove in the bronze race in my PTO bearing. The replacement had no such groove and drives the shaft through the whole range that the old one didn't. Remember the balls contact ar

And when the shaft is not supported by the balls and thrust assembly, it can move on its own due to speaker vibration or just relaxing from the last operator induced motion. E.g. it backs up, on its

The high drive may not blow the attenuator resistors instantly, but it won't help the RF detector that does the keying. Perhaps you could hook up a bias to the ALC jack at the same time and drive dow

Back it down until no one sees intermod products. Most receiving software shows intermod percents. Back it down until the quality is good. That's often smaller than the 25 watts you show. It doesn't

You can probably get a few for that much at your local RS. But on line they won't guarantee what their package of 25 for $2.79 contains. 1N4007 are 25/$1 at http://www.danssmallpartsandkits.net/ who

I think there is only upside. The 1N4007 is a better RF switch than the 1N4148, but not as good as a diode made to be a PIN diode. The 1N4007 has an intrinsic region to give it better high voltage pe

There will greater intermod both receive and transmit with the 1N4007 over the true PIN diode, and more than that with the 1N4148. I know I've seen an article on the topic, probably in VHF Communicat
