Pat, according to my recent similar experiences, the band switch is now intermittent and making poor contact, probably due to old age, and is about to fail... The variable does tend to arc under thes

This is a 13.8 V 100 Watt 70 cm solid state linear acquired new over the weekend. The device is most reluctant to drop the rx/tx and bias relays after the exciter has been switched to RX, and continu

Jim, you have confirmed what most of us older types have long suspected - it is not what you know that is important, but who you know. That is the modus operandi of man, the herd animal. Ciao, Ian ZS

To round off this discussion: The amp's biasing was found to be far too high on the bases of the driver and final stages. This was causing excessive dissipation in addition to allowing the amp to sel

This has smacked it on the head; DSP in the ham context has to be seen as cheap and nasty and a sales gimmick. High Q crystal filters remain expensive, while multi-mode, multi-bandwidth DSP can be i

Tom, I'm not sure I used the correct terminolgy here in this context ("ringing"). Ringing, as I understand it, is repetition of the basic response of the filter at harmonics of the filter's centre fr

Presumably there are two possible places to insert the resistor: in the HT a.c. lead right out of the transformer, thus protecting everything including the bridge rectifier and caps, or immediately b

There is a common misconception that air has good dielectric (insulation) properties. For example, the PTFE glove our wives slip over the iron is good for a few kV provided it is not punctured, altho

I'm talking about both, the early ICOM switchers were internal types. According to a friend who had a rig fitted with one of these internal types, it ran hot and there were birdies. Eventually he too

Presumably any bypass caps become more reactive with increasing frequency, rendering the bypassing less effective anyway. Ian ZS6BTE -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/FAQ/amps Submissions: amp

The term "UHF" is a complete misnomer in discussing these connectors. They are strictly HF devices. VSR above around 140 MHz is too high. The better types use PTFE, bakelite or similar insulation (wo

This is true, one can "patch" any impedance back to nominal, but there are losses, and the system goes narrow-band. Ian ZS6BTE -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/FAQ/amps Submissions: amps@cont

Half of the problem with break down of cinnectors is probably contamination of the dielectric with solder flux/vapours when soldering, or the centre pin with solder itself. Hams, and some professiona

Rich, they're ganging up on u again, obviously their filtering technology is not up to snuff... Nothing nicer than a vigorous debate: if a few verbal "5's" are thrown one is assured that the content
