I had always wanted an Argonaut 509. This was especially true when I spent some time in western Massachusetts in the early to mid 1980s. I had a ground floor apartment in a building, and there was
I tried an Omni VII and an Eagle at the old Ten Tec factory station. I preferred the Eagle, but I bought an Omni VII because I thought I would make frequent use of the keypad frequency entry like I
Well, I for one hope that Mike can sell all of the Omni VII+ radios that he can make. I operated the Omni VII and the Eagle some years ago, at the old Ten Tec Factory Station. I bought an Omni VII ba
Is there anyone here who knows which board that the optional and no longer available fan cooling kit gets plugged into on the Argonaut V? Help? 73, Steve WA9JML
Mike Cumbo, ND4S, provided me with the instructions for the black heatsink Argonaut V. Mine is one of the gold heat sink units, so I will have to jury rig something. 73, Steve WA9JML There is a cabl
I need a part ID for the internal interconnect connectors used in Ten Tec radios. Specifically a 3 pin female connector. I once had the connector manufacturer part number for these, but I cannot fi
When I worked on the IMTS car phone line at Motorola, I had a power amplifier deck that simply would not work. So, I showed it to my group leader. He stared at it for several minutes and then reach
I can also vouch for Jim with Exline Signal. He did a great job fixing my Argonaut 515. I thought that the finals were bad, but he found a defective cap. He also fixed my Kenwood TS-790, that AES c
I have found that the internal tuner in my Eagle is not as good as my 600 watt LDG tuner. But, I still use my Ten Tec 238C tuner in preference to the LDG. My trap vertical antenna is old and cranky
Hear Hear! We have been spoiled by the service we got from the original Ten Tec company. Paul Clinton and his techs were always very helpful, and that costs money. David is trying very hard to keep
I remember being called a lot of nasty names in Urdu, because Motorola made a cheap radio that a lot of taxicab drivers bought. To replace the final amplifier transistors, required taking the radio o
I use several Argonaut VI radios with a variety of VHF transverters, and find them to be an outstanding radio. Thanks to the US Army I am almost totally deaf in my left ear, and only marginal in my
A fuse will not act fast enough to save the final transistors if the current gets too high. I use a vintage Ten Tec 960 series power supply. These have an over-current protection circuit, so if you
Since I finally got an Eagle, and I will likely have a move coming up in the future, so I can offer up my Corsair II station. The radio has a full complement of filters, including the 1500 Hz and 250
I have been using the cheap slide switch on my 707 for several years for PTT duty, and it is still working fine. Steve WA9JML On 3/12/2018 3:38 PM, John King via TenTec wrote: Thanks Greg. I may try
I bought one of these USB to 1/8 inch phone plug cables for my Argonaut II from RT Systems. I managed to get it to work with my N3FJP logging program with the Omni VI parameters by setting the speed
I have been trying to use different software to control my Argonaut VI rigs that I use with VHF transverters. It seems that when I plug a USB Cable into the back of the radios, and turn on the rig,
Kudos to Lee! I tried toggling the automatic notch button in the N4PY Orion interface software, and the radio started working like it should. This bug has plagued me for some time! I worked with Car
I use a Lenovo Thinkpad 410 as my shack computer. I maxed out the RAM to 8 gb. I bought it from their off lease/refurb website. I am now experimenting with using it with some digital modes on VHF,
