101. [TenTec] Blocking Dynamic Range (score: 1)
Author: geraldj@ames.net (Dr. Gerald N. Johnson, electrical engineer)
Date: Fri, 25 Aug 2000 10:22:53 -0500
Any receiver with a wide roofing filter will have poorer blocking range close in. Though the ARRL tests at 20 KHz to be outside that wide roofing filter for most radios. A narrow roofing filter preve

102. [TenTec] 705 vox/ptt switch: What does it do? (score: 1)
Author: geraldj@ames.net (Dr. Gerald N. Johnson, electrical engineer)
Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2000 22:20:13 -0500
I'd guess it connects the microphone to the wire in the VOX position and lets the PTT switch do it only when pushed in the PTT position. Cuts down on feedback in the PTT position. 73, Jerry, K0CQ --

Experience in these parts, by the picky operators indicates that the Timewave DSP series outperforms the MFJ and RS. I have a DSP-59+ and it has quite good selectivity, is extremely versatile, handle

Date: Tue, 11 Jul 2000 10:13:36 -0500
Sounds fine on my Corsair II no matter how I try to tune it to be critical. Could it be that there's just a tiny microchirp on the edge of the filter that when you tune to the edge of a receiving Omn

My Corsair II listens to CW on 20m on USB (Properly). I don't hear anything to complain about. Same filters as an OMNI VI. The tea pot is too small for there to be a tempest! 73, Jerry, K0CQ -- FAQ o

Mouser (www.mouser.com) has those parts, and no minimum order. Brown trucks or the US mail find the hinterlands. Hosfelt in Ohio (800-524-6464) shows 18 pf for 4 cents each in disk ceramic, 15 pf 50

Author: geraldj@ames.net (Dr. Gerald N. Johnson)
Date: Wed, 19 Jul 2000 11:17:23 -0500
We use offset tuning to correct for differences in how others in a QSO tune SSB or CW. Once a QSO has begun if each uses the main tuning to correct the other's tuning the QSO will move across the ban

But if all stations start by matching as closely as their ears allow with the main knob and then only tweak the offset or RIT after that the only things causing spread will be drift, not excess opera

I've never heard any Triton or Omni A, D, or C owner complain about performance. Though by my circuit analysis, I think the Corsair II is a superior receiver with better dynamic range, especially for

I don't have good data to compare Corsair 1 to II though I've heard that the receiver circuits are essentially the same. Major differences are panel paint color and the fact that the 1 has band switc

114. [TenTec] What kind of wire antenna to use?? (score: 1)
Author: geraldj@ames.net (Dr. Gerald N. Johnson)

Run as much wire as you can conveniently feed in the middle. Anything from 100 feet overall up to 326 feet overall (a double extended Zepp for 80 meters). 31 feet high is better for regional contacts

I don't consider the Omni V/VI in the same class as the Corsairs. Best I can detect, the early Omni (A,D,C) used a double gate mosfet as RF stage. This can have usable dynamic range but not the best.

The Yeawoodcom fall apart within that 20 KHz filter because everything that passes through it gets to the second mixer that's not as tough (and with more gain) as the first mixer. Look at the DUBUS r

Its hardly worth the bother taking IF output after the filter for scope monitoring. The filter cleans up most of the ills created in transmitters from clipping distortion to clicks on keying. At best

Generally when strong signals are close by in frequency, the noise blanker is the worst possible enemy of rejection. E.g. it makes strong signals sound like they are tens of kHz wide. Turn OFF the no
