John, I believe that the PBT control only affects the 6.3 MHz filters. The 9 MHz filters don't move. Make sure that when you are testing the N1 filter, you aren't seeing the effect of adjusting the 6
...and I'm still hoping that they will update the firmware for the Pegasus. They've never added the last set of features that they added to the Jupiter (although even that Jupiter firmware is over a
Is anyone interested in trading their Jupiter for my Icom 746 Pro? The 746 Pro includes optional TCXO and hand mic. It's in perfect condition. I'm looking for a Jupiter in similar condition. I'd cons
Recently I hooked up an old MFJ-784B DSP box to my Pegasus. While the 784B is still in the MFJ catalog, the EPROM copyright sticker says 1996. One of the things I don't like about the Pegasus is the
I'm doing some shack cleaning and have my RX-320 for sale for $225 plus actual shipping / insurance. This is the original (not D) version, but I have modified it to bring the 12 kHz IF to a jack on t
I have a factory-built 1208 6m / 20m transverter. I haven't used it much as I'm not into 6m. However, when testing it out, I discovered a high input SWR (around 2.0:1). Other than that, with what lit
I ran the Pegasus in the RTTY Roundup earlier this year. I was only running about 30w and started out with no fan, but I noticed that the heatsink was getting too hot to touch so I attached the TenTe
FWIW, I mentioned e? in a post (not even referring to an auction). There was a discussion of some RF modems. I mentioned that they were kind of pricey. Someone mentioned sold cheaply on e-? I said I
Oops, I guess my probation has been canceled. This post showed up immediately. I wish I had know that. I'd pretty much stopped posting to the list. 73, Mark
I'm messing around writing a Linux control program (in Python) for my Pegasus. It's been a while since I worked on my Windows/Delphi version. Anyways, it seems that whenever I send the Pegasus the co
I did a little more testing with my Pegasus control software. It looks like when you first power on (or perhaps reset the DSP) the Pegasus, Keep Alives are enabled, i.e. if you key the transmitter wi
I have a BuxComm Rascal interface with the FSK option. Basically, all that option does to the base Rascal is add another opto isolator an connect it to the TxD line from the serial port. The opto iso
Ken, I notice something similar on my Pegasus with reduced RF gain. My guess is it's some artifact of the DSP AGC implementing higher gain . With no signal on my Pegasus (i.e. dummy load), numerous b
Mark, You can connect an external speaker to the jack that feeds the internal speaker. However, you need to make sure that the external speaker is not grounded. You can get around the no ground limit
I see that in a recent update to the Jupiter firmware, TenTec has added (apparently 6 - old count 33, new count 39) new filters including 150 Hz. Could someone with a Jupiter check out the skirts on
I've been pleased with Force 12 Antennas. I like the fact that they are very simple mechanically (but not electrically) without complex feed systems and traps. The elements are just telescoping secti
I have a factory built 1208 (20m to 6m transverter). When the transceiver is on and 6m is selected, the input SWR is about 2.7:1 at 14.0 MHz. The SWR drops to 1.4:1 at about 14.6 MHz (tested with my
