You guys probably won't believe this, but you are reading the words of the original inventor of the Jack Armstrong Truth Detector!! When I was about 9 or 10 - really don't remember - I got this idea
Thanks for this reference, Paul, which I unfortunately received and read after posting my previous response to you. Despite Mr. Inoue's statement of over two years ago that no new Icom products would
It is interesting to watch the spectrum of receiver noise output change as you invoke NR in various degrees of aggression. My experience would echo yours, Jerry. Also I find that signal level to an e
Jim, one mode will cause the audio pitch to increase with clockwise motion of the tuning knob and the other will do the same but with counterclockwise motion. Depends upon what you are used to and ho
Bill. I keep a large RV deep-discharge battery connected across the output of my Astron VS-35M power supply - suitable breaker in line, of course. If I lose mains power, the battery will run the PRO2
If the 785/7800 is anything like the PRO and PRO2, just press and hold the antenna selector soft key and it connects to the receive antenna associated with that main antenna. You have a choice then o
Let's keep in mind that radials in physical contact with the earth are essentially non-resonant; their length is of importance only to the extent that collectively they form an effective ground scree
Alan, welcome to the (fortunately) small group whose private thoughts and opinions get published whether they desire it or not. In your case, it may have been mischief and in my case simple failure t
Not to confuse the issue, but the original topic of what to change when adding or changing filters suggested to me that the questioner was concerned about "carrier oscillator insertion frequency" rat
Thanks, Tim, but you know that I would never say anything about that radio here! <:} No, the center frequency is a term which usually denotes the frequency about which the passband is of the filter i
As I recall, Monty - now N5ESE and used to be N5FC - is the authority on the TT 13XX kits. His website used to have a lot of material on them, including countless corrections and changes to the manua
And some have the reset function embedded in the program such that when it is complete, the radio is ready to use. Nothing important one way or the other, but just a touch of convenience that ensures
Paul, are not AM broadcast stations still assigned frequencies on a 10 KHz spacing? If so, that would appear to limit the upper end of audio response to about 4500Hz, leaving a small amount of guard
What are the advantages of transmitting voice frequency components in the range of 50 to 300 Hz? increase communications. '50s, I have concluded that SSB was developed as a mode intelligibility compa
Hi, Paul Thanks for the informative response. Although my receiver and audio system will go down to 30 Hz or so, I have not been able to notice any beneficial effect or advantage from those stations
