Sat down yesterday to check out some new CONTEST antenna work I had done
recently and my CONTEST radio (TS930) started acting funny. As RF output was
raised past 50W, 28V ps voltage regulation went to pot, sidetone sounded bad
and radio lights got very dim. As I removed my headset, I noticed that the ps
fan was not running. Even a QCAO will see a connection here!! To make matters
worse, I CAN"T FIND MY MAUAL!!! Anyone have a user's manual that they would be
willing to loan for reproduction (or I'll gladly reimburse you for copying and
postage).
Anyone know of a source for new fan. I recall there was some discussion
recently abt a good Kenwood tech but I may have lost that info. Any help in
restoring this great radio is appreciated!!
73, Mark K0EJ

I do realize that some scores do not look right, q's not matching up with
the score. I ONLY put down what someone sends me. I do not CORRECT scores
or try to figure them out unless that person sends me a correction.
ALL SCORES ARE LOW POWER UNLESS NOTED WITH A HP NEXT TO CALL!!!!!
This is my first attempt at the FD scores on here. I did breakdown the CW
and SSB contacts. I feel that this will be the majority of the contacts.
There just is not enough room to break down all the 2,6, 440, pkt, sat and
other contacts. Also not really enough room for all the Bonus pts. I did
not put the hours in since everyone should have done basically 24 hours.
Also I am sorry but I cannot put an op list on this one. Not sure there
would be enough bandwidth in my email if I started listing ops for some of
those 20A stations.
I will take any suggestions on this and if possible I will try to work
them in. Just remember that if I change something it means that I must go
back through all the email and reread them and update the scores. Can be
quite time comsuming.
PLEASE DO NOT FORGET TO PUT YOUR FULL EXCHANGE DOWN!!!! 1A,4D AND MO,SF
OR WHATEVER!!
73's Jim

Subject: visit to Columbus, Ohio
I will be spending the rest of 1996 working in Columbus, Ohio, and will
be there over many weekends. If you are a contester in central Ohio that
is so proud of your station that you would like to show it off, send me
a note and let me know! I'll get in touch with you to arrange a visit.
I may even be available to participate in some SSB multi-ops.
While working near Boston last winter, I had the pleasure of visiting
K1VR. Thanks, Fred, for the tour of your FB station!
