41. [TenTec] I want a really good receiver (score: 1)

nice to be a purist, but most people can't hear the difference (unless they have been previously spoiled by owning a Ten Tec). Still, I think I'd put the $ 10,000 into the antenna! 73, Bob WB2VUF --

The rig to fill the niche above the Scout but below an Omni VI might be the Elecraft K2, or something like it, Maybe Ten Tec should enter into a teaming agreement with Elecraft. I have not heard or t

I always thought thatthe Delta II review as a little harsh. If it had gotten a better review I might have bought one instead of a Paragon. Its sad that there is no editorial review process. However,

This is true, but we have to think of the Scout as basically a monoband rig with the capability of changing bands. Rather than a sucessor to the Argosy, it is more of a successor to the venerable Hea

Actually the Scout uses a 2940 type regulator that is spec'd to operate at 11V. Some owners have reported problems with running the Scout on battery (nominally 12 V), but I think most of these proble

You're absolutely right, Duane. The QST reviews give real lab test results, and these are what I rely on the most, plus the cw waveform photos. Most of the rest in any review is subjective. 73, Bob W

No, Scott, it isn't bad at all. Think of it as a stripped down Corsair I. It has the same I.F. and filters but no passband tuning and no RF gain control (there is an attenuator switch on the back pan

Well, yes and no. The k2 is a QRP rig, but they have an optional inboard amplifier that brings the output up to 30 W, comparable to the Scout's 50 W. 73, Bob WB2VUF -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesti

Actually, I think it is an LM-2940-10. I have the specs for the chip around here......somewhere! My crimp connection was made with a hand crimping tool, so it wasn't as tight as it could have been. A

I'm sure it would be easy to disable the frequency correction, but the drift would probably be unacceptable. Keep in mind that the PTO's used in all the other T-T rigs were individually temperature c

The same is true for the meter lamp in the Scout. It is too bright for nightime mobile or campsite use. I put a 56 ohm 1/2 watt resistor in series with the lamp to reduce the brightness and extend th

In general, 10 meter repeaters use PL. This is to prevent a total mess when the band is open. The split is -1 MHz, ie.: input for 29.62 is 29.52. Perhaps the best thing to try is park the rig on 29.6

Jim, do you mean RF key clicks on the air or just an audible click inside the rig? There will be audible clicking due to an internal relay that is used for switching an external linear amplifier. Use

Actually there is a T/R relay, at least in the Corsair I. It is K1 located on the low pass filter board. According to the manual: "The final amplifier is disconnected fromthe antenna circuit during r

I forgot to mention that the clicking of the reed relays is not a click or a clack (or a quack, for that matter), but a musical "ping" 73, Bob WB2VUF -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/tentecfa

The 12 V computer fans work fine for this purpose. They are available from a lot of mail order places and can also be found at hamfests. I think that MCM Elecronics sells a temperature sensing one. I

Well, don't forget that the Scout is an "economy rig". The wiring can certainly handle more current, but the limitation is no doubt the jack. I agree, that it is best to put the fuse in the line to t
