[TenTec] Jupiter Output Power

[MadScientist1948]

Drake TR7’s were also famous for that issue. Part aging and, I believe, aging of ferrite materials in various coupling transformers resulted in drop of output, In the TR7, that drop was more significant, dropping from a capability of 50 watts on the low bands to around 75 watts on 10 meters, still barely enough to be noticeable on the receiving end of the QSO.

73 and enjoy the Jupiter.
