Ah, there is a great Spanish saying that expresses just what Jim is describing, "Zapatero sus Zapatos" - A cobbler should focus on shoes and not get involved with other "Stuff." I think that saying c
Well stated, Jeramy Kris KM2KM Hello all, The negativity surrounding Ten-Tec's merger and now the "mega-sale" that was first mentioned back when the merger was first being announced has me baffled. Y
Could the problem possibly be in the local set up somehow? It seems very odd that a radio that won't work as expected in one's shack goes back and works just fine on the bench at Tentec. It might be
I will 3rd or 4th the hypothesis that there is something from the rig out that is the issue. Something that is staring you in the face. I'd retrace the system from the way the previous rig was hooked
Guys I can see this as a long long thread, but I promise not to go into my 1959 XK-150s and its AM radio. (No I did not return the Jag :>). When you are young and romantic the radio is, well, backgro

Eric, You're the right man for the job of writing this manual. I like the lightening protection for a chapter, RF grounding for a second chapter, and a third on getting them both in sync. Being a soc
OK, guys, I will share what was told to me by engineers at Arecibo Observatory - that is the "big dish" think of the movies "Contact" and "Golden Eye." My XYL and I lived on the observatory grounds f
Being a New York Upstater I feel compelled to comment. These so-called business appreciated states based on taxes miss the boat from a citizen perspective - quality of life, quality of education, hea
Jim, my mileage may vary, but I go down the same road of analysis that you posted - the Chinese have been doing the predatory pricing and extended credit since before Colombus "discovered" the new Wo
I did the mod from the schematic and parts that T-T sent on a perfboard - it really isn't much, but, before hand, I pulled the 15 meter filter and put in a jumper wire - it worked like a charm w/o th

Ok, Steve has started a thread of interest to me. I have a Centaur - relatively new set of 811As - It blew fuses, I replaced the fuses and it ran for a few days. Then it blew the fuses again. Steve,
