The OMNI VI Plus lets you control the rig from contest logging software, etc. My experience with the OMNI VI Plus was that I needed at 2 serial ports or 1 serial and 1 parallel port on my computer: 1
What about Globe Chief? I made a lot of Q's with my Globe Chief 90A! 73, Marsh, KA5M Formerly K5ZNJ (1961) [mailto:tentec-bounces@contesting.com] Their for has to American ___________________________
Yes, you are right. I guess I had forgotten that. It's been a while. 73, Marsh, KA5M Well the Globe Chief actually was built by World Radio Labs (WRL) - I think in Colorado. Was a great transmitter.
My OMNI VI+ (and ORION II and FT-1000MP) communicate with a standard RS-232 serial port on every computer I've used them with. For computers without an RS-232 port with USB ports only, a USB-to-RS232
Come on guys, Ham Radio is supposed to be FUN. Find something you enjoy doing and DO IT. Contesting, DXing, satellite, QRP, or whatever. Me, I like DX. I'm at 333 of the current 340. So what? It's wh
Phil, "I can participate in FD any way I want." Enough said! You don't need to explain to anyone. Find something YOU enjoy doing and then DO IT. Want to operate FD to run up a high score? Go for it.
Maybe the sender of the QSL request for a QSO that didn't happen is just fishing, or maybe the op that sent the QSL request made an honest mistake. Rather than not respond, another way to handle this
The Ten-Tec 416 Titan II manual does not give too much info about C6 and C8 on the Load Shunt Board except that they are 320pf. Ten-Tec should be able to give you the minimum voltage rating required.
Mike, "Somewhere along the way, depending on the length of the coax between the tuner and the balun, wouldn't I be just matching the say 14 foot run of coax from the tuner to the balun? And not neces

Mike, About how long is each side of the doublet? (You may have already given this info in a previous post but I do not have it.) Marsh, KA5M Jim, The antenna is a doublet up 50 feet inverted vee sty
Mike, Modeling your doublet with EZNEC+ ver 5.0.59 and making 3 assumptions: 1. The antenna is in a straight line 2. Each end slopes down from 50 ft to 10 ft above the ground 3. Freq 1.830 MHz EZNEC
Thanks Bob. 73, Marsh, KA5M Very good analysis. 73 Bob, K4TAX _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/te
Jim, Your suggestion to add 33 uH in series with each leg of the 600-ohm openwire feedline for 160M operation should do the job. Mike, I'd be interested to know how you end up resolving this. Wishing
There are cell phone towers now on Bouvet Island? Marsh, KA5M Ah, Jim, I wish that were so. Shocking, but true. After all yesterday I ran into a ham and was showing him my HF mobile set-up. He remark
I've been using the TX OUT/TX EN of my Orion II with my Alpha 8100 for a long time - no problems and great QSK. 73, Marsh, KA5M getting a Ten-Tec keying loop (TXEN/TXOUT) to work with a non-TenTec am
Guess I was a little quick on the trigger - sent my reply before I saw the clarification. Marsh, KA5M I've been using the TX OUT/TX EN of my Orion II with my Alpha 8100 for a long time - no problems
Barry, I checked out the Power Dist Board A9 schematics for both the Orion 565 and Orion II 566 on the Ten-Tec website. Here's what I saw for both: C3, C4, C5 - 10 uF C1, C2, C8 - 100 uF C6, C7, C9 -
James, thank you for your post. I've been wondering why someone hadn't mentioned this before. I just updated / upgraded my Ham Radio station computer from a Pentium D and Win XP SP3 to an i5 Quad Cor
Re: User Interface What I would like to see added to the Orion III are 4 additional indicator LEDs - one green for receive and one red for transmit for both VFO A and VFO B. Of course both VFOs could
