I had my Omni-C station for 23 years. I deeply regret trading it, but we don't always make great decisions. I kept a look out for mods over the years and never really saw anything that I thought woul
John: I did own a new Jupiter with autotuner. After about four months I traded it for an Omni-VI+. For me it was a sincere trade-up. A search of this reflector on this subject will get you many comme
Anyone using the Gregoire headsets with TT(Jupiter, Corsair)? I just need close talk VOX for occasional round-table. So, don't want to pay for Heil Pro-Set unless I have to. tnx, Ed Purvis Bradenton
Well the dreaded PLL OUT OF LOCK fault has struck! My Google search showed three recomendations. 1) See if the small variable resistor is out of adjustment on the Major Loop Board. This did not work.
Well looks like the soldering approach is not going to work. Before you jump all over me please note that I am very good at that sort of thing. I even went so far as to remove the old solder, etc. I'
Well after the easy repairs failed to repair I dug down and worked through the PLL circuits. That was fun. Anyway what I found was no varying control voltage the the Minor Loop boards VCO. This led m
I hear the same signals here at my location (near Berkeley, CA). Although very interesting they are really only small disturbances compared to some other 'garbage' that I am trying to trace out. Othe
Question to anyone knowledgeable: Electrically what is the difference in performance between the three types of filters used today, namely the "Mechanical", the "Ceramic", and the so-called "Roofing
Muldar and Scully might have their own take on all this. But even they might say enough is enough. Seriously though, from an amateur radio perspective it would be nice if we took this opportunity to
Pursuing Jerry's comment about noisy environs, several of the neighborhood kids got these battery-powered motor scooters for Christmas. The chargers are 24 volt switching supplies, and they are eati
When I was looking to buy an Omni VI Plus I called Ten-Tec and talked to the support engineer for the Omni's (name omitted). I was told that for all intents and purposes the Omni-VI with Option Pack
As the Omni-VI Plus 'cascades' (which is really a cool thing when you consider you get up to 16-poles of filtering at 9 MHz) the N-1 or N-2 filter behind the default 2.4 kHz 9 MHz filter putting the
I am toying with the idea of trading in a perfectly good Omni V and replacing it with a Jupiter with antenna tuner, the reason being just to consolidate and simplify things a bit, and to try somethin
About two weeks ago I started a thread on using an external binaural audio filter to simulate stereo reception for CW. This was a very simple project to build and very effective in helping you 'separ
"Looking backward...." Speaking as a former RF engineer with an eye toward the future but a pocket book firmly planted in today..... and having invested in and subsequently divested myself from SDR t
Here is a replay of the essential info I placed on this reflector or sent to individuals who asked for more information (If you don't find what you are thinking about here look a few weeks back in th
KG6TT: useful in notion give it a try. I assume most know Binaural RX is included in Orion. Text and .wav example below: http://www.tentec.com/panoramic.htm 73, Bill W4ZV ___________________________
you were polite. don't you mean a sales gimmick? HI John N1JM Binaural or stereo CW is a different way of doing things. Not a gimmick. We have by necessity become conditioned to let the receiver try
