My dad and I ordered Viking Ranger kit from Allied Radio about 1956, it came RR Express and the chassis was bent. Later we found the VFO side shield was folded or drilled backwards which made for dif

Actually there is Down East Microwave making transverters (so the HF side has to have FM if that's your interest) as well as Elecraft. Otherwise there is no FM made in the US other than Motorola and

Its rather critical to know what lamp is needed. There are at least a thousand possibilities in miniature lamps. The Nye Viking MV VA manual on BAMA doesn't admit there even IS a meter lamp. That tun

Not at all necessarily. The original post said 97DB/milliwatt, which shows high power sensitivity. Higher impedance will just raise the required voltage, though if the driver has a large series resis

27 ohms Z with 32 ohm phones cuts the available power by a factor of 4. 6 dB. When the headphones are weak already, that's a serious drop. There might be a need for old fashioned, non tiny inductors

Almost. Actually the BC610 was built from HT-4 parts with additions and likely several variations in transformer vendors. The movie referenced here earlier show those difference details very clearly.

Perhaps a SoftRock coupled to the 9 MHz IF before the first filters, e.g. right after the first mixer. Combination of hardware and software. There are versions of both for that to provide a bandscope

Then 27 ohms series resistance isn't a factor. And likely the vintage military headphones have a useful narrow band and maybe even a peak in response about 900 to 1000 Hz useful for CW. Some had an i

Yes it is and was intended. Not so all over. Most rigs have audio responses from 20 or 30 Hz to 20 or more KHz using HIFI audio output chips without band limiting. Then all the post filter amplifiers

The IF is 9 MHz. The VFO gets mixed with a crystal to produce 19-19.5 then mixed with the 9 MHz VFO IF to produce 10-10.5. 9 will probably leak through and the second harmonic of the VFO can leak thr
