141. [AMPS] TS940S CONNECTION TO HEATHKIT SB200 LINEAR (score: 1)
Author: n4zr@contesting.com (Pete Smith)
Date: Wed, 20 Oct 1999 14:36:26 -0400
This is part of the story. Actually, the TS-930 can switch that line with either a transistor or a relay, depending on a jumper setting inside the radio. However, the transistor switch in the 930 is

The contest station database now has 843 US/VE stations in it, of which 226 records are new or newly updated. I thought there might be general interest in knowing what this group of HF contesters cho

And here's where I part company with you, Jon. An antenna with a 750-ohm feedpoint impedance, fed with open wire line through a tuner and balun, could be a very *good* antenna, indeed. The real issue

badly designed for 10 meters, and that results in lower output. Mine has a relatively high input SWR (ca. 1.8:1 on the part of 10 meters I'm interested in) and suffers from low 10m. output (ca. 800

No, not at all. What I *do* see is below-normal grid and plate current compared to the lower bands, and commensurately less output. It's been opined that the problem is not the match to the transceiv

During the last CW WPX contest, the antenna changeover relay of my SB-220, which had been occasionally sticky for a couple of years, finally got to the point where it was sticking in the standby cond

Date: Sun, 22 Aug 1999 22:03:37 +0100
Sorry - it was the normally-open bias contacts that had the problem, so maybe it's explicable in terms of the tubes' idle current trying to flow before the contacts are fully closed -- makes more sen

Is there anything wrong with operating an SB-220 upside down while (I hope briefly) trouble-shooting a problem under the chassis? I would not be drawing more than idling cathode current, but am conce

OK, I'm confused. I'm building an electronic bias switch and vacuum relay QSK into my SB-220, having finally been jarred out of procrastination by the failure of the changeover relay this past weeken

More than enough. Scott, K9MA, has designed a vacuum relay QSK system that takes advantage of the fact that the TS-930 turns on a +12VDC line 2ms before RF output. With appropriate current-limited po

Moreover, even if the above weren't true, there may be a perfectly innocent explanation of the "discrepancy." Most companies of any size have separate salary "grades", that are distinct from function

Cehck out eBay Eimac transmitting tube 3CX1500A7 (8877) (Item #121285168). Current bid is very low but it probably won't stay there. Stated to be new tube in box. 73, Pete N4ZR Sometimes a tower is j

IMO, this is definitely the way to do it. The only caution I would add is that grid current can soar pretty high when running full drive with loading that is still short of optimum. That tends to arg
