My readings are taken with from the Panadapter screen and S-meter (which also displays dBm) of the FLEX-1500 which is a sub-receiver of my OMNI-VII (using the N4PY mod). Since the N4PY mod takes the
Great piece.... I'm still using my original Corsair II (#2576) purchased 10-21-88 along with a 961, 263G, 282, 288, and 705 from Amateur Electronic Supply (Milwaukee, WI) for $1925.90. Absent replaci

Lee, I have to agree with your comments regarding your first impressions of TenTec radios. When I started using my first TenTec, the OMNI-D, it was so different from the Yaesu FT-101 in operation and
It seems to me that TenTec radios are sold by satisfied customers more than anything else. To that end TenTec has been using the Ambassador program. I don't know how well the Ambassador program has w

As I recall, it was easy to get RF in the SSB audio if a device like the PK232 was left plugged in. You may be able to avoid the problem with audio isolation transformers (or RIGblaster nomic) and cl

I used a friend's TT 580 Delta during a week at a camp in Canada in the Boundary Waters. We worked our schedules and DX with it and while the Delta lacked the bells and whistles of my Corsair II, it

For black covers as with the Drake R4-B receiver, I used to use Barbecue Black from Rust-Oleum..... looking at their website, I don't see that, but they do have a hammered series as well as a texture
