301. [TenTec] Fw: Loud Hum w/Paragon I & 961 (score: 1)

You might try lowering the line voltage to the power supply. Hum is a sign of the core being run to saturation (cheap design short on core area and copper). It should get very much quieter with only

Each band is set with a crystal and is independently adjustable. That gives the radio far less phase noise than it would have if all the offset frequencies were synthesized. Be sure to use a counter

WD-40 may be not the worst thing for loosening up the hardened grease, if its in the vernier, but you won't be able to spray enough from the front to loosen the grip of the slug's nut on the threads.

There are bolts through the laminations on the transformer. Tighten them, they should reduce the hum. Some transformer cores are destined to hum because at high flux densities, the iron changes size

The tape wound cores held with band straps do run a high flux density and do have magnetostriction. A little isolation by rubber insulators at the mounts may help quieten it. Its not faulty, its just

What the coax probably does is to supply the input C for to make an L network in the PA into a PI. The L network leaves more mismatch while the 29 pf per foot of the coax contributes to the match. Ad

Lumpy grease on the screw? In my Corsair's PTO it tuned poorly going down compressing the spring, there was a great deal of slip in the vernier because of a deep groove worn (crooked too) by the ball

I'd rather there was a lamp, say 200 or 250 watts in series with the input to the amplifier. Then feed that with the variac and plan on several days. Raise the voltage a little and wait until the cur

The electronic lock won't work. Its an analog PTO. It would take a mechanical shaft lock, made more complicated by the fact that the shaft for the logging dial is outside the knob shaft. You could us

The crystal filter effective position depends on mode. Its one position different in the SSB mode than in the CW mode. On CW its one switch position closer to the SSB filter than on SSB. So on CW wit

With the bandpass tuning used by Tentecs since at least the Corsair II, you can narrow any filter by sliding the 6.3 over from the 9 MHz pass band, so you can get anything you desire with the stock f
