It's a bicycle lubricant. Take a look at this page: http://www.tentecwiki.org/doku.php?id=pto I haven't done a PTO (yet!), so I can't say which method is best. I'd be inclined to tear it down so I ca

I'm a firm believer in synthetic grease - but the right synthetic grease. Look for Mobil 1 and Valvoline Synpower products. It's a light, almost fluffy grease with texture much like spackling compoun

Yes, the symptoms of an open diode are no 0.6 volt across it on diode test function of a DMM, and much higher ripple or strange ripple waveform on scope test. That, on output of the bridge, (+to -) N

I have high opinion of the Triflow "fix". We have used it at my work, in industrial work for U.S. Navy. Lots easier than flushing grease with solvents, as TF adds needed liquid components back to old

Thanks Paul, very instructive discourse on lubricants and the need for caution for Triflow to be just used in low pressure situations like the PTO. Complex gear assemblies like old receivers had are

8 ohm phones are fairly rare. Most are in the range of 50-600 ohms. Question to the original poster -- is what you hear HUM (pure 60 Hz) or BUZZ (harmonics of 60 Hz)? Hum is most often stray magnetic

If a diode were to open up, youd still have a bridge, it just would not be refreshed each half cycle so the filtering would not be as effective. This is HIGHLY unlikely. Gary ________________________

Hi Jim, I'd say buzz. I tried to record the sound: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_pjAwEfeYcdNUpLb3BQdmZnbk0/view?usp=sharing I also tried to look at it on the scope: https://youtu.be/D7mqyUbNhJw

Josh: I'm not sure about this T/R switch question. Years ago I used to run my C-21 mobile by backfeeding the 12V Aux socket from the auto's 13.8 V battery. (through fusing, of course) Worked fine. Th

Thanks Perry. I've had several people tell me the C21 will run just fine on external 12V. I also found this info on the Ten-Tec DC Circuit Breaker Model 1170: http://www.tentecwiki.org/doku.php?id=11

Actually, loss of one diode can happen more commonly than we think. The loss of part of the full wave bridge first affects the ripple, and could induce higher hum levels. We have seen it happen in As

What about insulating both sides of the audio feed to the headphone jack? That way, you eliminate a chassis ground loop at the headphones connector. -Stuart Rohre K5KVH ______________________________

There is no such thing as a "ground loop." The "buzz" that we often blame on these mythical "ground loops" is really leakage current from the AC power line. There's a complete description of the mech

Paul, what do you think of Synco Super Lube? It says it's synthetic and contains Teflon and you can get it at Ace Hardware and many car parts stores. I've used it on four PTO's so far. ______________

Hi Curt, I didn't mess with the bridge rectifier. When I removed the transformer from the chassis, the noise went away. I've made a shield out of steel for the transformer, but have not yet had time
