Thank you to all who replied and offered advice. It has reinvigorated my quest to build my own amp. No matter how ugly it may appear it will be mine. I retire in mid 2014 and the amp project will be

Hi Chris, Many, many thanks. I have heard that the connectors carrying the sense circuit voltage between LV board and Microcontroller board sometimes get oxidized/dirty so I did remove them and clean

can you clarify what you mean that the receive goes to low? Do you mean you lose sensitivity in receive and need to reset the relay by switching to STBY? 73 Jerry NY2KW I recently acquired a 87A and

Hi Bob, I didn't say the pin diodes were indestructible only that in a well-designed amp like the 87A, the failure rate is low. It isn't the average power that blows them but also the thermal impedan

The TX and RX pin diodes have been remarkably reliable with infrequent failure. The best explanation for pin diode failure is the system setup - see the following link several years ago by John, W0UN

I believe the greatest issue with maintaining the 87A further down the road are the hard programmed PALs (16 and 20) that as I understand cannot be read or cloned. Anyone have any success? 73 Jerry N

Thanks for the thoughtful reply. I was not aware that the 3CX800A7's had any unusual failure rate. Almost all I have seen are still making full output after 20 years though the drive needed may be a

Hi Brad, I spoke to Glenn or Brad about this around 2 years ago and they said they would not sell the programmed PALS but would replace them in an amp sent to them for service if found bad. It won't

They have used a few different but equivalent pin diodes. I don't know if this reflector allows attachments but I made one a few years back that compares them attached. Alpha was selling/recommending
