Some time ago I bought my first Ten-Tec rig, a Triton 544 with a 262G power supply. That supply has a speaker and a built-in VOX circuit. After spending hours trying to make the VOX circuit work corr

Hi Ron, I've used the Telex HTW-2A Twinset for years and love it. Recently I dealt with Sporty's Pilot Shop to buy replacement earpieces for it and had good success with them. http://sportys.com/acb/
Actually I think they have the opposite thread pitch. 73, Mike N4NT _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listi
I was mistaken. The rigs with the left hand thread shafts are the 580, the 579 and the 2510. 73, Mike N4NT _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com ht
The tuning knob turns a shaft coupled to a thin, brass shaft by a vernier means. The thin shaft extends to the back of the PTO unit. That shaft has large threads which pass through and move the pisto
I have 4 rebuild kits at hand, two of each type. Every one of them has a "drive rod," part number 90202 included. You guys got cheated ! If need be, I'll be happy to scan those suckers and email you
I have no idea when I got them but they did come from Ten-Tec. Pressed on the matter, I'd venture to say I got two right-hand threaded ones around 1982 and got the left-hand threaded ones for my 580
My parts list does not show the 90202 either, but each kit came with one. No kit came with a pistol (I always wondered if that name started out as "piston" but the typo has endured.) Mike ___________
No, I wouldn't have ordered them separately, I just ordered two simple "rebuild kits" for each type of PTO. I did not buy the left-hand threaded ones until I got my 580 Deltas years after the other k

Couldn't find my slipstick but cipherin' it on paper gave the following values: Current for full dissipation (50 w) = 18.26 Amps Voltage drop @ 18.26 Amps across 0.150 Ohms = 2.74 Volts This causes m
If the screws are going in so far that they fall out the inside of the knob, it sounds like a sleeve is missing or something like that. Compare the diameter of the rod onto which they mount with the
At the risk of seeming foolish, I confess that when I had a similar problem people asked if the jumper on the rear panel was in place, but I don't recall the nature of the plug. They didn't even make

Seems in my younger day what you describe was often caused by a bad cathode bypass capacitor. Probably there are similar things that could go wrong today. 73, Mike N4NT ______________________________
Somewhere along the line I got the notion that the difference between the filters centered at 750 Hz and centered at 500 Hz was only the capacitors on the filter board. Did I make this up or can anyo
I divided 250 Hz by 9 million Hz and got 0.00002778. I suppose I must then move the decimal two places to the right, or 0.002778% to get the percentage of change needed to move a 9 MHz crystal 250 Hz
Gee, I defer to you experts. It is quite possible that you are wrong but we'll never know, will we? Maybe we could move the carrier oscillator 250 Hz? _______________________________________________
