Hmm, I wouldn't have said exactly that a choke is a constant current device, but I get where Bill is headed. Choke input filters resist changes in current because the choke inductance L induces a bac

I believe Bill is correct. However, since K3LR's intended use is to repair a bad monoband 40m plate choke, the temperature specifications of the wire are not important. I'm sure Bill would agree with

Bob, Years ago, I bought a lifetime supply of RJ1As for my own projects, and have tested roughly two dozen on my homebrew relay tester. The RJ1As typically close in about 2msec, with the fastest clos

Jim, You're right in principle, of course. The problem is that a well-designed amplifier relay circuit shouldn't depend on what transceiver is used. The amplifier itself should be immune to hot-switc

False logic? I don't believe it is good design practice to ever allow an on-line high power amplifier to look into an open circuit, even if no drive is present. To do so is to invite instability. The

Jim, I believe Paul W9IC addressed your issue, but I thought I'd weigh in, too. You're absolutely correct that there are many situations (eg, running VOX SSB with some transceivers) where the transce

I believe you are overthinking the precautions, Marc. Reseating the connectors probably isn't necessary, and you run the risk of damaging a connector or other component by messing with the innards. I

As I recall (and maybe I dont!),the 77SX has the same tank circuit as the 77DX, which means the plate load Z is too low for the tank components. The amp tunes to resonance, except on 10m, but not cer

Ed, the best place to test it is in your Acom amp itself! Just run it for a few hours with filament on but offline and no RF drive. It doesnt matter if the high voltage is also on, so long as the amp
