Tom... I thought the 239 worked with unbalanced (coax fed) antennas; were you able to use this tuner without an external balun, or does it have one, or? Best, jerome - va7vv -- Original Message -- Fr
Seconded! or I'd settle for a Jupe that had all the functionality of N4PY's software, in hardware, plus the IF gain control brought out to the front panel and a nice weighted tuning knob. Indeed I wo

Dear Mr.Fish... I too am a CW only guy. The Jupe has been the best CW rig on TX I've ever owned in 53 years of hamming. The receive side IMHO, could have been done better. I strongly suggest you try
Check out the handy-dandy Battery Booster... a little switching supply that floats in series the car battery keeping the total voltage to the rig at 13.8v. See: http://members.cox.net/w4rry/ I had th

Carl: Does the Orion's NB unblank the noise in the presence of a signal outside but near the passband of the rx (every NB I've had does this)? i.e. When listening to a CW signal, say, under pulse noi

Well, I've driven over 100,000 miles with my 706MkII in the truck (no G) and it's a good little CW rig. Sure, they could have done better than 2A on rx and made it so the note didn't go to rat excrem

Seems to me the human ear can barely detect a 1db change; this 0.19db loss is about 80% less than what the ear of a young person might be able to hear on a good day. Why worry? Best, jerome - va7vv -
Well, here's a theory: Copying? I think it's all about being able to recognize and deal with sound patterns. Most folks have this capacity to some extent, but some don't. If you really don't, then I
Jim, I had the same question using the same GUI on the Jupiter. Using Carl's software, the noise blanker worked; using the Pegasus GUI, it did not. In correspondence with Carl, he confirmed that ther

Dave, I remember having the same problem. My inelligant cure for that and a host of other things was to take the audio off the headphone jack through an 600 ohm 1:1 transformer into an mfj dsp box. I
Dan... I can't remember if your BN was ground mounted or not. Mine lived atop a 30 foot tower on my sun deck. I think I've had the BN for 20-25 years as it was one of the first to come out. Every 5-7
