Does anyone have any hard data on the environment for the topband rx? By this I mean the number of signals in cells of amplitude (say 10db cells, from 0dBm to -60dBm and of frequency - say 20KHz cell

The FT102 (certainly in some, if not all serial number series) had terrible key clicks. The official Yaesu mod was not very good at curing: my general observation is that Yaesu rigs appear historical

If you're buying magnet wire, get 'self fluxing polyurethane'. That is solderable without any preparation. If you have 'oleo' based insulation ( or Formvar), scraping or burning works. Use an alcohol

Phase noise and IMD go hand in hand. The Phase noise limited Dynamic Range should be equal to the Intermodulation Limited dynamic range. See my paper at the 1986 RF Expo West, repeated by invitation

to my mind, YES!! I agree with CT1BOH, and like him, I don't have packet. I feel that with packet, we get ever closer to de-skilling DXing: the other month, I was after the BV1 on 160. I think he cam

Does anyone (I guess EU's) know anything about the weak carrier on 1825? It's definitely coming down the antenna, so it isn't my rx! 73 Peter G3RZP -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/topband.ht

One of the difficulties is to decide what form of combining should be used. Historically, you tied the audio outputs of the rx's together, and the AGC lines, so that the strongest signal produced eno

Re all the talk about MMICs. I go along with the idea of a 2N5109 - an excellent transistor. But DON'T get the idea that a GaAsFET would be worth trying - the 1/f noise is too high at low frequencies

When bypassing control cables, be careful of what capacitors you use. I tried small, cheap 50v dc, 0.1 mFd ceramic discs. They literally caught fire from the 28v AC for the motor of the T2X. \i've go
