I'd like to modify my Paragon II to permit setting power output to under 25 watts. I have the directions for the change for the Paragon 585 model, but they don't correlate to the schematic for the 58
I guess there aren't too many Paragon II owners out there these days... Anyway , my best *guess *is that the part referenced in the Ten Tec wiki for the QRP mod should be changed from R44 100K to R39
The left lamp has been driving me nuts :) It would flicker, go dim, or go out. Opened the case several times and tried a new lamp, cleaning the lamp socket contacts, checking the PC board cable and c
Does anyone on the list have an extra manual for the Paragon ll (586) for sale at a reasonable cost? Peter _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com ht
After owning an Omni VI for a few months I had a hankering to try the Paragon II transceiver. I was lucky enough to find one in working condition a few months later. I've been able to add a full filt
I was thinking of providing a buffered 70 MHz output from the IF in my Paragon II to drive one of these: http://www.amazon.com/NooElec-RTL-SDR-RTL2832U-Software-Packages/dp/B008S7AVTC/ref=sr_1_2?ie=U
I'm noticing a bit of band pass "ripple" when tuning through a signal using the AM wide bandwidth filter. Is that normal? Is there any information on to correctly align the input and output transform
The 1287 should be the correct chip... you shouldn't have to cut any pins. here is some info I posted several months' ago to the group. Pete * .The lithium backup battery in the Dallas RTC chip has f
It fails on non Ten Tec QSK amps because Ten Tec amps provide a relay closure to activate the RF CW signal. This ensures the timing allows for the reed or vacuum relays to have proper switching and s
Barry... yep, that is the T signal I used. The mute signal in the Paragon II also worked when I tested the amp and radio on the bench. But, I would strongly suggest if anyone else tries it that they
I paid over $600 for my Paragon II back in 2012. The Paragon II is much more reliable than the earlier Paragons. The VCO board problems were fixed, and the back up battery problems were eliminated wh

I couldn't find the original thread, but here is my concern... I own several Ten Tec rigs, from VHF FM transceivers to my HF rigs: a Paragon II and an Omni VI. I'd surmise that Ten Tec has always mad
I've been thinking about owing an Orion for a few years, but I am wondering if any of the parts are becoming extremely hard to find? I see that folks have had to replace the displays, and that is one
Synthesizer phase noise wasn't always the cause for transmitter broadband noise issues. Back in the 1960s I used a Heathkit Hx-10 Marauder transmitter with a transverter to operate on six meter SSB.
Hi Rick No, this was broad band noise, generated in the IF stage and amplified by subsequent amplifier stages. IMD would require at least two signals, implying modulation being present... this noise
