Last week I found a web sight. Its from Jack Giehl (I think that's the correct spelling). I didn't make note of the address, but an Alta Vista search turned it up. 73, Jerry, K0CQ -- FAQ on WWW: http

Have you tried Uniden? They make Bearcat and own Regency. I've found them to supply manuals and schematics when available for the cost of the phone call or letter. Its: Phone for Tech support. 1-800-

365. [TenTec] Front End Protection (score: 1)

Date: Mon, 12 Oct 1998 11:31:41 -0500
Protecting a front end is tough. A quarter wave shorted stub on that T would be more effective for static. An RF choke should work though it won't take a direct hit. The coax may not survive a direct

Actually since its DC to be dissipated and RF to be not dissipated, a wire wound resistor is most applicable because the inductance of the winding will raise the RF impedance without affecting the DC

The snap across a coax connecter will make you rise out of your boots. .005 mfd charged to 20 kv, seems like enough energy to zap a lot of radio parts. Better to drain than to try to withstand. Energ

If you have an SWR of 50 at the INPUT of the tuner and apply a KW, more than that protection resistor will be fried. The remains of the resistor may not be detectable in the ashes. Go with a lower va

Bill: In the Corsair II the spot switch shifts the BFO and the local oscillator so the received CW signal would be zero beat if you were transmitting exactly on the same frequency. Otherwise you have

370. [TenTec] 2.8 filters for Ten Tec and other Ten Tec info (score: 1)

In my Corsair II there are switch provisions for 4 filters, two for SSB and two for CW in the second IF. No provisions for changing the first IF filter though likely a different filter would plug in.

A TVI filter can reduce harmonics more than the internal filters of the radio, but only if its mounted very close to the radio, essentially directly to the coax connector. TV interference is from har

Zero beat means different things for AM, SSB, and CW. It was easiest for AM where you turned on your VFO in spot mode and adjusted for minimum frequency beat note. Remember as you tune the transmitte

There are a couple problems in Tentec PTOs. All the details are in the Tentec archives. Grease is a problem, but the brass shaft and brass ball race also get worn. There are a lot of details included

Sure, you tune the BFO and the main tuning in opposite directions at the same time. Collins did that mechanically in the 75A4. The main tuning PTO and BFO PTO were mounted on trunions connected toget

If the 10K pot has full supply voltages applied, changing to a 5K pot will probably not change a thing. Though if the offset tuning loads the pot some, using a 5K pot should make it more effective, e

I took the time this afternoon to compare an Omni V and a Corsair on the same antenna (A-B switch) on both SSB and CW. The Omni V performed slightly better on weak signals but it was very close. Howe

Not so! You only get about a nanosecond delay per foot of cable. To accomodate relays you need 10s of milliseconds, e.g. the delay of ten million feet of cable! Collins specified the length of the RF

200 watts input to the PA means it will draw about 15 amps. The rest of the radio and drivers will take a few amps, so like other similar powered radios 20 amps peak and 15 or 16 continuous should do

Frank, my solution is that I bought a Corsair II instead of an Omni V or VI. I asked a loyal HF user of the Omni VI last night about its shifting frequency and modes and he confirmed it does the same
