> at Ten-Tec, does anyone know of any mods for an Argonaut 509? I never
There were a few of them, the notable one (to me) is adding another
crystal filter in the IF chain. It is easy to do, is shown in a
1983 QST article and some of the QRP Quarterly issues. You can
add a CW filter this way, or (like I did) just add another 4 pole
SSB filter in series with the one already there for much better
SSB selectivity on receive and reduced blowby.
There was a QRP Quarterly article recently with a bunch of mods for
the Argonaut 509, anyone remember it? I can dig it out if no one
else recalls in the next day or two. I have it in a drawer at
home.
