I am thinking about a home brew tracking preselector and started looking for other examples. Then I start to read that the Flex guys appear to be needing a preselector too! A bit of a surprise. Then
John and Rick Thanks! I retract my remarks WRT the Heros folk :-) I'll have to scratch my head/pencil. There is a temptation for multiple stages to make a 'modern' TRF set! As for the QRM. There is t

Thanks Rick! I am waiting for MFJ 9296. Should be here any day now. Circuit is basic ne602 either side of 4 pole filter. It looks like a bargain for 6 bands. Expect me from NPOTA at Chattahoochee Riv

I traded for a Yaesu FL2100B today. It looks pretty good for it's age. The FL2100B uses 2 x 572B tubes and has a 50Hz rated power transformer. It will run a solid 600W out all day long. It is NOT QSK
I found a used TT Centaur. It'a a little pricey so I would like to sell the FL2100B before buying. Yaesu FL2100B is clean inside and out with Cetron tubes. It has not ben modified/molested/renovated/
Hook up a dummy load. Drop power to 10W. Hopefully the high SWR does not throttle at low power. Take tuner out of line. Do the SWR readings disagree? I would suspect SWR detector or filter board. Try

I want to try an 80/40 trap dipole at the ATL QTH. For this, I need some traps! I am not keen on coax traps. Preference is for some store bought, KW rated, like those used on Hygain DP-2BDQ or some n
Aloha Rick I do not have two clear supports. If I am able to thread a hanging wire through the oak's it will turn into a rat's nest with March's first windstorm. Dr Rick If I had two clear supports,
Eagle from the ashes? I've made some noise about this in the past and feel the urge to toss some pennies in the pool on this go-around. TenTec's successes have come from innovation and niche in marke
I'm on a casual 80/40 DX kick until the QRN gets bad. This AM(1145GMT) I hear RA0R calling CQ NA on 7017kc. I don't know where he is but no one is answering him. Poor guy is just calling and calling.
Aloha Mike, Yes. It's OK. I had a 565 for a while. The panel layout is quite comfortable to use. That said, if you do go with a metal panel, maybe something other than the ubiquitous black. Something
