I've used the Yamaha CM500 for a couple of years now with my Orion II. I use the bias at the level provided by the Orion. H/W Mic Gain is set to 0.0 dB and a mic gain setting of 13 works just fine. N
Terry - I've used my Orion II for a couple of years with an LP-Pan2 and NaP3. I currently use an EMU-1212 card. 73, Floyd - K8AC On 12/9/2015 10:56 PM, tentec-request@contesting.com wrote: Message: 6
Don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet, but Tentec, a few years ago, had a small board that fixed a problem with RF getting into the Orion II mic input. When I bought my Orion II second hand, I
The other day I stated that Tentec had supplied me a board for suppression of RF ingress through the microphone connector on the Orion II. I checked back through my records and see that was in error
I recently acquired an early Centurion (serial 10A10221) from an SK's estate. The resting plate current, PTT not keyed, is around 100 ma and the 3-500ZGs have a nice orange plate glow. I had read in
The 100 ma was the same in standby or operate. I've found one problem so far - the MJ15001 was OK, but the transistor that drives it on the Filament - AC board was shorted. Normally, that transistor
Final update on this question: I got the problem fixed. When all is well, the resting plate current should be zero or nearly so with no excitation. Whether in QSK or PTT/Vox mode, standby or operate,
A while back, I ran across some online documentation describing the procedure that Tentec technicians used to calibrate the Centurion meters. I failed to print it out at the time, and now can't locat
Thanks for the info, Allen. I'll give that a try and see how close the meters are. Since there are adjustment pots in series with the meters for each function, the most accurate approach would probab
Allen - thought I'd bring you up to date on the metering issue here. I have it all worked out and the meters are now reading as they should. First, the 2.2 VDC was correct for the Ig metering as well
Eddie: I recently located meters for the Tentec Centurion amplifier, and you may want to check them out. I suspect the Titan meters are the same or from the same source. Google "Modutec Jewell 2MAS"

Recently, I've seen a couple of ads where the person was selling a Tentec Titan where the descriptions made no sense based on what I know about Titans. Perhaps someone who knows the history of the T
I've had two Centurions - an early one and a late one. Both had Phillips head screws holding the top of the cabinet on - no Allen head screws. 73, Floyd - K8AC ______________________________________
Mike - I've had a bit of experience working on two Centurions and have seen the same problem a couple of times. In my late Centurion operator's manual, it shows a 2N3055 for Q1 on the Filament-AC bo
