- Hi folks - I have noticed two Century 22's for sale recently. They fascinate me a bit. Does anyone know if the PTO can be easily rebuilt on these if needed - or the situation with spare parts? Or any

- What's wrong with tapping off the PTO? The TenTec PTO's I've seen seem to have a decent amount of drive, and the freq displays have a decent input impedance--meaning low loading. I suppose you could

- Hi Don, I can think of two ways to get an accurate digital frequency readout. One way is to sample the LO or combination of LOs with a counter. The other way is to control the LO (or LOs) with a digi

- Don, I used to have a Century 22. As best I recall, it's a direct conversion rig but uses a crystal mixing scheme to get the various frequency bands. Tapping the PTO would give the correct last three
