1. [TenTec] Orion - newbie first impression (score: 1)
Author: JACrux <jacrux@googlemail.com>
Date: Sun, 5 Nov 2006 07:42:40 +0000
I just spent a week operating as KH6/G3JAG and was obliged to choose very quickly between using an Orion (I) or an FT1000MP, never having used either before. No time to play - just get on with operat

2. [TenTec] Hercules II (score: 1)
Author: JACrux <jacrux@googlemail.com>
Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2007 08:43:30 +0000
I have used a separate external switch control my Herc II via the control lines from the Omni V for many years now. It works fine; I can go from bypass (around 50w which is the "tune" level for the T

3. [TenTec] Velocity factor (score: 1)
Author: JACrux <jacrux@googlemail.com>
Date: Sat, 27 Jan 2007 15:27:55 +0000
I thought about 75 ohm twin. I also thought about making my own open wire line. But instead I use the heaviest grade of ladderline, 14g (US) stranded copper plated steel. Sadly not sold in UK (as far

4. [TenTec] Herc II and 9420 PSU (score: 1)
Author: JACrux <jacrux@googlemail.com>
Date: Tue, 6 Mar 2007 12:31:54 +0000
Whilst the xyl was out I got the 9420 into the kitchen and took a peek inside. One of the 14v rails is very dead - the wires at the terminals of one 47,000 mfd capacitor look as if they have been run

5. [TenTec] #311 band data converter (score: 1)
Author: JACrux <jacrux@googlemail.com>
Date: Wed, 3 Oct 2007 18:46:53 +0100
I have an unused #311 and the interface cable to connect it to a 565 Orion. I got it to interface an Orion to a Hercules II (420) and/or to the 253 auto-ATU, but as I never got the Orion, I have neve

6. [TenTec] Fix Omni-V (score: 1)
Author: jacrux <jacrux@googlemail.com>
Date: Mon, 7 Jan 2008 17:08:10 +0000
Note also that band switching is done with reed relays. Check that the 40m band pass filter board ones are not stuck, or the coils open circuit. (I am just replacing K1 and K2, because of an intermit

7. [TenTec] Dial lamps .. (score: 1)
Author: jacrux <jacrux@googlemail.com>
Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2008 16:31:51 +0000
The bulbs in my Hercules II were overly bright. I added a wire wound resistor in series. End of problem. Note that the standard 9420 PSU has limited capacity for running dial lights as well as the po

8. [TenTec] Omni-V.9 (score: 1)
Author: jacrux <jacrux@googlemail.com>
Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2008 17:23:59 +0000
Agreed that the N4PY chip makes a big difference. The Omni-V is a great radio and with a revised (working) computer interface and a few INRAD filters, it becomes a splendid radio. I have a Elecraft K

Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2008 21:22:44 +0000
Good answer Jim.. There is or there was an offer over here of a very hefty switch mode and a couple of those would do the trick very nicely, but I don't want to risk the noise - if I can avoid it. Th

10. [TenTec] Hercules II fan noise (score: 1)
Author: jac <jacrux@googlemail.com>
Date: Tue, 26 Aug 2008 17:53:23 +0100
I have never had that noise from my Hercules II even when running 500 watts out. In fact I was just on the air rag chewing on 20CW and the only fan noise I got was from the separate 25 amp (analog) s
