don't use the Centaur much due to the fan noise. What mod. (size) Papst 57 CFM do you use? Would like to use the Centaur on ssb too. Taylor 572B's from RF Parts and replaced the original 100 CFM fan
Hi Bob and group, What Uses Color Decoders A very good question, and you have explained it very well. Another good question is: What uses 3.5795454 crystals? The answer is: Many many things that need
Question: what are the practical effects of an "unbalanced" SSB signal? As Barry has noted, there is an enclosure with the 2.8 kHz filter that says the carrier "may have to be balanced." I haven't do

You guys have got me confused. "I notice that my used (new to me) Omni VI Plus upgraded to option 3" I thought that an option 3 upgrade was something that could be done to a non-plus version of an Om

Hi Jason, I understand why someone with a non plus or version 3 upgraded Omni VI would want the Inrad modification, in order to get another narrow 1st IF filter option. And I can also understand that
Hi Rick, Yes I understand where that Inrad mod puts the new roofing filter. I guess what I did not understand is that with only one NAR button on the Omni VI (non version 3 or Plus) you sort of have
Hi Clark, Yea, I got it. With only one button to control it you would either get the new roofing filter AND the narrow option filter in line OR neither of them. Leaving the narrow option filter out a
Hi Joe, The "Power On" pin of the four pin transceiver power connnector is pin 3. The "Power On" pin of the twelve pin amplifier power connnector is also pin number 3. When the 9420 is plugged in to
Looks like it might be a nice web site, but I'm not getting any of the images. The 301 wiring description is enough without the schematic image anyway. Still I'd like to see his station pictures. Is
Hi Tom, I also have an Omni VI and I love it. I also use only CW. I usually keep the LP audio filter set at 1000 Hz. Sometimes I tune around using the 1.8 kHz 2nd IF filter with the NAR (500 Hz in my
The transceiver "power on" is activated by connecting a load to this "power on" lead. The text does not say what they mean by a load, and it does not say just to ground it. I'll look at my Omni VI ma
The lables on my schematic for the 9420 show where the 3 non-ground wires of the transceiver connector go, to HI I, LO I and PWR ON. Putting a "load" (perhaps a short to ground) on the PWR ON lead wo
Okay, now I get it. Any voltage about one PN junction forward breakdown lower than +REG will turn on Q1. So when turning the Omni VI on, zero volts will turn on the 9420. And when the 9420 is up, the
Paragon II. I like it very much, especially its ability to do 60 meters. It has a number of upgrades from the Paragon I. If you have your choice and want to control by computer, use FM, and gain a nu
Hi Jason, But to answer your question as to why I do not have any filters in the NAR slot it is primarily because every filter i've put in there has had more than 2 S-units of signal attenuation - I

Hi Jim, I cannot tell you anything about the Omni V. I do have some information on the OmniVI. Here is what I understand are the various versions of Omni VI: 563 Omni VI = The basic Omni VI 563 Omni
