1. [TenTec] Need OVP advice for Ten Tec 262 (score: 1)
Author: "Curt" <rhulett1@consolidated.net>
Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2009 10:35:40 -0500
I recently bought a used 262G for a Triton, understand these older supplies with one pass transistor can fail, putting overvoltage to the radio. Until I can correct this deficiency, I'm reluctant to

Evidently several years ago, someone suggested installing a 1.5KE15A transient suppression diode with a fuse at the PS output. This seems like a simple solution to me compared to SCRs, added circuits

Hello Mike, As I read the datasheet for the 1.5KE15A, the breakdown voltage is nominally 15 VDC. So when the pass transistor shorts, won't the transient diode limit the voltage to the load to nominal

OK, you've convinced me that a Zener transient protection won't work and to build a crowbar using a zener and an SCR. Looked at the Handbook circuit with the transistor trigger for the SCR, and Ten T

What is the market these days for the Ten Tec 405? I've had one for awhile, but since selling my 509 more than a year ago, it's just sitting on the shelf taking up space. 73, Cirt KB5JO _____________

My vote is to keep all of them, store what you don't want to use now. Selling any of them is likely to be more trouble than it is worth. 73, Curt KB5JO _______________________________________________
