1. [TenTec] Argo V Distortion (score: 1)
Author: geraldj@isunet.net (Dr. Gerald N. Johnson, electrical engineer)

Differente radios have different sensitivities to RF on the microphone cable. Tentecs sometimes are among the more sensitive. A ground may help. Toroids around the microphone cable at the radio end m

I keep tower and power grounds separated except when connected with coax cables. I disconnect all coax cables (using a patch panel of C coax connectors for rapid operations) when gone or lightning ap

I dislike guy wire insulators and like to use the guy wires to spread out the tower grounding too. With my tower grounds separated from the house grounds I suffer no damage from direct hits on the to

The theory of lightning protection by ground is that IF (and that is a super big IF) all the grounds are short and low inductance and good grounds that all the equipment and wiring will rise together

However Bob, having been shunted to ground by good tower grounding the jump voltage is far smaller than that required to jump a few thousand feet. But its far more than equipment can stand on its own

Grounding need not be only "ground rods." For eons, the buried copper wash boiler has been a far more effective "ground electrodes" much like a sheet of copper buried deep enough or a mesh of bare wi

Date: Sat Aug 16 23:05:43 2003
There are two problems on 17m with the Omni C. The IF is 9 MHz, so the LO is mixed to 9 MHz also. Twice the LO injection is 18 MHz, twice the IF is 18 MHz, both roar through the mixer to produce spur

No, Clark, the first IF of the Corsair is NOT 6.3 MHz. That's only the Bandpass Tuning IF of the RECEIVE IF. The transmit IF is still at 9 MHz as is the first receiver IF and the product detector. Th

14. [TenTec] 509 PTO how hard to rebuild is it? (score: 1)
Author: geraldj@isunet.net (Dr. Gerald N. Johnson, electrical engineer)
Date: Sun Aug 17 11:30:30 2003
The grease in the PTO is probably hardened. Tentec sells a rebuild kit for a bit of $20 that includes grease and instructions. You NEED those instructions more than the parts. If its stiff its probab

The question to ask is:"What sideband is the normal sideband in that radio on 17m?" If its upper sideband there's a big transmit spur. If its lower sideband there's no spur. Its possible that it may

Date: Tue Aug 19 11:33:26 2003
The TenTec PTO is spring loaded and the spring gets compressed as you move the slug into the coil going down in frequency. Makes it stiffer at the low end than at the high end. 73, Jerry, K0CQ -- Ent

Date: Tue Aug 19 13:34:41 2003
The spurs come from the second harmonic of the LO and a little from the second harmonic of the IF. The IF is right about 9 MHz and fixed, so that spur stays on 18.0 MHz. The LO injection is 9 MHz + t

The horse still isn't moving no matter how hard we kick! The shared crystal is for the 10 and 28 MHz bands. In the Omni C the crystal is 4 MHz to mix the 5 MHz vfo to 9 MHz where its second harmonic

Since double gate MOSFET transistors are no longer being made in silicon, supplying modified transistors is more than a little difficult. Seems to me that the forward transconductance of 10 to 15 mil
