Hi, John-- I believe the first Corsair used a 4-pole filter in one of the positions. Many people replaced this 4-pole filter with an 8-pole, Model 220 Ten-Tec filter (2.4 kHz SSB filter) and were hap
Tune in the calibrator signal. Hold the tuning knob still and turn the dial skirt with your fingers until it says '0' (or 25 or 50, etc.) 73, Mike N4NT
There is a padder capacitor in the 206 calibrator to set the crystal at the precise frequency. You can probably use your Argonaut 509 to tune radio WWV on either 10 MHz or 15 MHz as follows: -- How t
Carlos, you are welcome. I do not know if the 509 has a socket for a calibrator circuit board that you can activate from the front panel, but if it does then the circuit board from the 206 may be ide
I've got a 580 Delta and you'd have to drop an anvil on it to change its frequency. Unless your cat plays with the tuning knob, it'll stay put, I think. You could always remove the tuning knob to kee
Actually may be a conspiracy with the State Department to jam international broadcast reception in the US. You must remember that Chairman Powell has at least one connection with the Department of St
Perhaps someone can explain why it is so but I've seen much discussion about the superiority of the Ten-Tec 'crystal ladder' filters over the 'crystal lattice' filters used by other manufacturers. Fr
Hi, Dennis-- Note that I deferred to the gurus on the reflector about why it was so. See: http://lists.contesting.com/archives/html/TenTec/1999-01/msg00147.html page 10 of this: www.r-390a.net/Pearls
You know, I used a stock Omni-C for years and never once experienced what you describe. Are you speaking from experience or repeating some old wife? 73, Mike N4NT ears a the
Paul, there are two versions of the noise blanker. I believe the one needed can be determined by the serial number of the rig. I cannot help you with this, sorry. 73, Mike N4NT
I have a 2-page document on how to adjust a bug that I need to put into pdf format. If you can help, tell me where to send the doc. If anyone wants the document, I'll send it. 73, Mike N4NT
Thanks for all the replies! I've sent it for conversion. What a response! I'll read through them and see if anybody wants it and send it to anyone who wanted my work of art, HI. 73, Mike N4NT pdf
If you are speaking of the Argonaut (?) 509, it uses the same frequency mixing as the Triton, doesn't it? Therefore it ought to work. But I'm speaking theory and not from experience. 73, Mike N4NT
I had a Triton that would oscillate when the drive control was advanced past the point that the output power was over about 80 watts. Called Garland Jenkins. He suggested I look at the diodes which g
