This is something that varies widely with the vintage of the Titan. I own three 425s (the original Titan). The earliest of them does NOT work 30M, no matter what, and not even that little bit you nee

Except that it's a vintage issue, as I observed in an earlier post, and later production units DO cover the WARC bands. I suspect that there are also mods for the earlier units. 73, Jim K9YC ________

Frank, You've gotten excellent advice for fixing an overload problem, but one part of your post raises a red flag -- "not even my 30L-1" I interpret that to mean that the 30L-1 doesn't bother the GDO

As others have noted, S-meters are NOT well calibrated. Those I've taken the time to measure with a calibrated generator are 6 dB from S8 to S9, but more like 3dB/S-unit at S5 and below. More importa

Great information, Dave. If this is what's happening to Frank, the SB-200 may be causing other problems via the power line that haven't yet been discovered. In that case, it would be good to put a po

I don't know what a "red core" is, but I know a lot about the Fair-Rite frequencies. I would NOT use it where the core needed to carry much power above a few MHz. How much is "much?" A 2.4-inch #43 i

WRONG! When a conductor is wound around (or passed through) a ferrite material, nearly all of the magnetic flux resulting from current in the conductor flows in the ferrite core. Any loss in the core
