BullS***!!! ISU means Iowa State University (Club W0YI)
Go Cyclones!

And, by the way, U of M means University of Minnesota,
NOT Maryland, NOT Michigan.  Go Gophers!

When I was in Princeton I ran extensive lab
tests on most of the good contesting radios
and printed the results in the FRC bulletin
over a period of 10 years or so.
The 751A was of interest because it is a very
reasonable design and is in a small enough box
for DXpeditioning.  For example, it's the radio
that Rich, K3IPK uses for his trips to 6V6U.
My memory is failing on this, but I do remember
that the original 751 (no A) had a very poor
rcvr design with a wide open first I.F.  You
could hear lots of stuff that wasn't on the band
that the radio was tuned to.

Some of the test results:

CW Noise Floor = -137dBm @ 14MHz, Preamp off.
CW Noise Floor = -141dBm @ 14MHz, Preamp on.
Third Order Intercept = +16dBm @ 20kHz spacing.
                            Preamp off
"         "       "    = +24dBm @ 100kHz spacing
                            Preamp off


The 751A had very good phase noise performance.
Close in, at 5 and 10kHz offset it is better than
the 930,940,781, and the FT1000. (Substantially.)

If any one is interested in the 3 page test
result, send me an sase at:

Well, I'm another one.  But I was NOT part of the Engineering bunch where 
the station was.  Recall that there were "hill" people who contemplated 
lofty thoughts and valley people (engineers) who got their hands dirty with 
real world problems.  I lived on the hill in those days (7th floor, Bascom 
Hall).  My, how things have changed!!!
