I ran into a similar problem setting my Argonaut up for SSB. Seems the MIC level setting was very touchy and had to be set somewhere around eight o'clock or so. A little more....and distortion, a lit
I'm not so sure it is "unfortunate" that the Orion is forced into this competition. And it surely was not "forced". Ten Tec released it for shipping when they were ready to do so. From that point on,
It's been interesting, reading the threads on Field Day. Because of health reasons I have not actively participated in Field Day the last few years, but can vividly recall various experiences over th
You can often solve a lot of extraneous noise in the headphones problems with the addition of a series resistor in the headphone circuit. On my Omni VI, I use a 1K resistor in series with my 200 ohm
One very easy way to do it is to key a small high speed SPDT relay with the "QSK" signal of the Jupiter. The realy common terminl goes to the Jupiter, the NC terminal to the Beverage and the NO termi
Jeff, I use the PT-11P with good results here. My antenna is a 256 foot off center fed dipole with a 4:1 balun at the feed point. It gives me all band coverage from 160 through 10 meters. On most ban
Roger......Roger......Roger......... Relax! Ten Tec did just fine with the Orion. I don't know about the FSK as I don't have an Orion here......YET! But I do know about the QSK and I think you are a
Check out the CodeBoy PUP keyer at: http://www.radioadv.com/ham_radio_equipment/Accessories/BK176a177.htm Fits nicely and works well too. It's a variation on the stand alone CodeBoy keyer. Uses power
I haven't seen any responses to your question Gene. Maybe folks responded directly. Anyway, my opinion of the Pegasus is that it is a very good value and a lot of fun! Combined with the N4PY control
Check out: http://www.radioadv.com/ham_radio_equipment/FreqMC/A2.htm It works with most of the Ten Tec analog readout rigs including the Century's 21 and 22 and even keeps your setup almost pure Ten
James, The numbers you quoted for the K2 are for 20Khz spacing. The numbers Ten Tec quoted are for 5 Khz spacing. As you can see, the Orion has close in performance that is unmatched by a long shot b
As I recall, that problem was quickly fixed. On the other hand, as the I recall, the Paragon turned in the best two tone dynamic range the ARRL had reported up to the time of the review, and since th
Hmmm.........? Maybe it was only "well known" by me. :-) I have three Paragons and I had the failure in two of them. I also know of several other Paragons that had the same failure. I don't know the
I don't know about any of the others but the failures I had here were clearly not cold solder joints. I examined the boards under a microscope and saw fractured solder joints. Both the PC board and c
