I was looking through a book I bought about 15 years ago that was a compilation of QST reviews called "The Arrl Radio Buyer's Sourcebook". In it is a copy of the review for the 544. There really was
That's why I suggested the MFJ filter. Although it's on or off, it's a tiny circuit board that is designed to go into a radio that is still sold. It plugs in but you could easily solder wires to it.
Jim, you miss the point. A choke is $5-$10 worth of ferrite with a coax run down the middle. A choke balun is the same ferrite and coax, with so-239 connectors on each end, stuck in a piece of plasti
Martin, as a resident of the county, you should know how it's government works. Very few countries allow unrestricted imports. I'm sure yours does not. In order to be sold in the US, Ten-Tec radios n
This guy is very well thought of on the Fox-Tango Yahoo list, and has more old radios than most of us combined. :-) http://www.landaircom.com/ He may have something at the right price. All of his his
After being the owner of what may be the last remaining box of #47 bulbs in Israel, I decided to look for other sources. I found that the cost of shipping ranged from $13 to $35 for a box, while the
My bet is that it is an AM broadcast station. When I lived in Philly I bought an HW-7 to use to take to the "swim club" and while I was out relaxing in the sun, listen to the radio. The club was clos

I expect that we really would be spending our time talking about putting Corvair engines in Volkswagen beetles. :-) (you can draw whatever parallel to radios you wish) 73, Geoff. -- Geoffrey S. Mende
I miss Ten-Tec TV and would love to see Scott doing Vibroplex TV, especially how to adjust your bug, and how to use a bug for first time users. I know this is the wrong forum for the later, but maybe
Joe, I'd love to but can't figure it out. Not being in the US, I have to get it from an eBay store. There are several that sell Deoxit products, but none that are very clear which one they sell is th

The real problem is the development cost. The cost of designing the board, writing the software if needed, building a prototype, testing it in a radio and then translating all of that to production i
After this discussion started, I did a quick web search on "how to repair volume control deoxit". There were well over 200,000 hits, with all the ones I looked at, people happy with the results. Seve

If the previous owner used a non Ten-Tec supply, they would have never known about the switch. It may be broken, or needs to be cleaned. AFAIK, 28.5 only was the standard at the time. I really am onl
