Barry, is it possible that the Oven controlled oscillator has been by passed and a TXCO put on center header in its place? This would also explain the adjustment not doing anything.This was a common
I have a nice Jupiter, but once I sent it to Ten Tec they indicate they cannot locate any drivers for it. I am sorry I sent it ,now, as it worked as a perfect QRP rig, about 5-9 watts out. Now driv
The Paragon is a lot different from PII. I would go for my money back unless it was a give away. Old Paragons were known for bad solder joints all over. PII is more line Omni 6. With general coverage
Recently I was told that if the drivers go on your Jupiter, it cannot be repaired. SC3133 in TO 220 format. I suggest you stock up on some older transistors.Luckily a friend sent me some, which I f
Apparently, Gary Greene had said that you can bias finals and drivers in the Jupiter by measuring ,7 volts at r21 which is a stand up resistor and easily located, and r23 which I cannot locate. Can
I am considering sending my Jupiter to Ten Tec for repair.It has low output 5-9 watts. (I bought rig in this condition) Has anyone had finals replaced lately by Ten Tec? My concern is if it IS the
Yes, I did ask, but did not get an answer. I will ask again before I send the rig. I think mrf454 is a sub, but not sure $70 a piece. Would hate to buy and send them if TT HAS finals for Jupiter. I
If the rig is not wired for the MIC to provide it power (Omni A, D, C..maybe others), you need the battery. If rig IS wired to power the mic, battery is not needed. Omni 5, 6, 6+, others. I have a Ju
Normal, and manual indicates sensitivity is about .3 micro volts on higher bands, and 2 or 3 microvolts on 160 if my rememberer is working. You CAN make 160 more sensitive, but you have to go deeper
I dont have a paragon, but a Paragon II, Omni A and Omni C which have PTO like Paragon does. Paragon II is a phase lock loop rig and is quite different. You need to check the PTO frequencies and set
