I think I need more coffee! It is a 250 Hz 9 MHz crystal filter. Steve WA9JML I have a Ten Tec #219 250 Hz filter for the 9 MHz IF for sale. I got a 500 Hz filter for my Omni V.9, and this one is now
Hi John, Check out this website: http://www.glowsafe.com/e-shop/product_info.php?cPath=36&products_id=163 You want to buy one without the power supply. I have used these, and they fit perfectly. They
Tonight while enjoying a nice CW ragchew, the other OM told me that my rig was changing frequency about 100 HZ when keyed. I have never been told this before, so I experimented a bit, and it looks li
I am looking for a #217 Ten Tec 500 Hz crystal filter for use in the narrow slot on my Omni V. It has the 250 Hz filter which is a bit too narrow for use on VHF CW. I am using the Omni V with a trans
I bought my first Argonaut II back in the 1980s when they first came out. I had been using some Heath QRP rigs, such as the HW-7 and the HW-9. I also was campaigning my National NCX-5 MkII. I quickly
Why don't you just solder a new 4 pin connector on it? 73, Steve WA9JML Notice an Electro-Voice 727SR mike advertised in the used equipment list of a particular radio dealer online. It's advertised a
I first learned the code by studying it, as I recall, in the Boy's Second Book of Radio. It showed the patterns in the code. E,I, S, and H, for example. I practiced in my head, learned the alphabet,
I have been enjoying this thread quite a bit. One question that I have about receiver performance may bear a bit on what has been discussed so far. Since upgrading to extra several years ago, I have
HI Jerry, Thanks for the info. Ten Tec told me that the Corsair II is designed along the lines of Rohde's ideas, and that is not half bad. I initially got the Corsair II to use with my Swan TV2 trans
I really liked my 1208 transverter. I used it with my Argonaut II, and worked all continents with 8 watts during the last F2 peak feeding a Hy-Gain 4 element beam at 50 feet. I gave it to a friend to
I have been buying the strips from Glow safe for some time. But, I wonder if my Argo II has a problem. The first OEM backlight lasted for about a decade of heavy use. The replacements last several mo
My Corsair II seems to be quite sensitive, and I have had a great time working DX on the low end of 80 meters with it. But, even with the RF gain up all the way, and the attenuator set to off, my rad
Carl, What sort of rig control was present in the Delta II and Argonaut II radios. There is a jack on the back panel and as I remember Ten Tec made some sort of digital adapter for these radios. 73,
At long last, I am getting a 220 volt line installed for my Centaur amplifier. So, I am looking at where to put it on the desk. Does anyone here on the list know whether the fan on the left side of t
Thanks George. When all else fails, read the manual! Looks like I will have to rearrange things so that the amp does not blow hot air into the rig. I'm hooking it up to a Corsair II. 73, Steve WA9JML
I made up some cables today, and started working on hooking the transceiver up to the amplifier. I looked in both manuals, and there doesn't seem to be any diagram specifically for hooking these two
The XV144 does not have any means of warping the local oscillator on frequency. Mine is about 4 KHz high. I asked them about this, and they told me that it is really easy to program the offset into y
While I find the test reports in QST to be informative, I do not consider them to be the final word in a rig's performance. Some years ago they did a rather harsh appraisal of the Ten Tec Argonaut II
I am looking for a Ten Tec antenna tuner, which can handle at least 100 watts for some portable operation. I would prefer one that can handle both coaxial and balanced feedlines. It does not need to
I have bought several rigs off of this list, and others from the e-place and other internet reflectors. With the exception of an old Vibroplex bug (tested and in working order...according to the ad o
