If it is not already sold, I would like the FM card Thanks, Steve WA9JML _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/
I recently bought a nice Ten Tec Model 256 FM card for my Omni V. (Thanks Ken!) The installation instructions for the card are for a Paragon. I presume that the Omni's internal workings are considera
It might require a very special Collins hammer, and I hate to think of what one of those would cost, Hi! (Especially on e-bay!) 73, Steve WA9JML _______________________________________________ TenTec
There are at least two different T/R switching configurations for Corsair II radios. Mine is an earlier model, which does not have the connections for key in and key out. The later versions do have t
Ha! You Orion guys think you have it bad. I'm not only still waiting for a firmware upgrade for my Corsair II, but Gonset has not returned my e-mails for years now about an upgrade for my GSB-100! If
I just looked at my Corsair II. The black phono connector goes to the VFO in and the red to the VFO out. Steve WA9JML _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contes
I used one of these transverters with my Argonaut II, and managed to work all continents with it barefoot into a 4 element beam during the last F2 cycle. I found that it worked extremely well, and is
Hi Günter, Here is a website that sells a replacement backlight. I have purchased several of them and installed them easily into my pair of Argonaut II radios. You will have to cut the leads and stri
I use a surplus UIPS gel cell in my old Moto Guzzi police motorcycle. What I have found works well is to keep it charged during the winter with a so-called "battery tender". I buy them from J&P Cycle
Oh Happy Day! Now, those of us who are aficionados of the older Ten Tec equipment will be subjected to weeks of complaints here on the reflector of how their Orion II's are still not perfect, and thi
I have the QRP modification done to my Omni V, but it seems to have a large RF spike when keyed,which was harmful to to the health of the PIN diodes in my Ten Tec transverters. Using a padding attenu
I have both an Omni V and a Corsair II. The Omni has the N4PY upgrade. The receive audio in the Corsair II sounds much clearer to my badly shot up ears. I have been able to copy weak CW stations much
Here is a question for the more digitally inclined folks on this list. I have been looking at the new 50 watt Tokyo Hy-Power amplifier and wonder if there is any way to use the digital port on the Ar
Oh, I don't know. There are a few things Ten Tec might readily upgrade on such a radio from the basis of the Corsair II, and they would not have to listen to endless complaining about firmware upgrad
There is such a thing as a USB to parallel adapter. I bought one so I could hook a decent Laserjet printer to my dad's el-cheapo Gateway computer a while back. 73, Steve WA9JML ______________________
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
You're right about the weight to performance difference between the radios, but at least there are no long strings of e-mail complaints about firmware upgrades on a BC-610. I'm just glad that I did n
Are the pinouts on the 4 pin mic connectors on the older Ten Tecs and Yaesu's the same? Please reply off list. 73, Steve WA9JML _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list Ten
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
