They must have borrowed that part of the design from the IC-706. :-) 73, Duane Duane Calvin, AC5AA Austin, Texas _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.
Hi Tommy, I don't understand your comment - how can it run full QSK without a keying loop for the amp? Either something is hot switching, has the potential to, or it's not really running full QSK. Ma
Bob, Yaesu uses the same loop as TT - I think they lifted the idea from them. My IC-765 was supposed to be a top CW rig, and it ran semi-decent QSK, but had no ability to run with a QSK amp. Luckily,
And this is how I have my Alpha 99 connected. Also works great on 1.371. 73, Duane On Tue, 10 Aug 2004 21:28:12 -0000 "Carl Moreschi" <n4py@earthlink.net> writes: Duane Calvin, AC5AA Austin, Texas __
Hmm, interesting, because my Omni VI+ QSK keying loop worked great with (1) Ten-Tec Centaur, (2) Ten-Tec Centurion, and (3) Alpha 99. Never a hitch with it. Much more seamless than using the Centaur
And, there are some speakers that cannot be cured with ferrites because the reception is actually happening inside the speaker. The subwoofer on my system has this problem. I just turn the volume on
Ah, so, it might be true. Yes, this is a powered subwoofer, which most of the PC subwoofers are. In my case, it is the electronics inside the box that is susceptible because the case has no shielding
Two options, in case the Orion's audio doesn't sound good to you: 1. Use the RX EQ and run it up (positive numbers) until the high end is reduced to what you like). 2. Use the BW/PBT to tailor the re
Probably better asked on the WriteLog reflector, Steve. For what it's worth, 10.47E works great on my Orion, but I was running some version last fall which was earlier than this one, and it also work
Jim, There's a fellow named Jan Robbins who posts to the ETO_Alpha reflector who offers used pulled tubes that supposedly still have a good useful life left in them. In July he posted a pair of NEW (
Just for reference, here is the first sentence from the Alpha 99 manual about the ALC connection: "The use of external ALC is not normally needed or recommended when the ALPHA 99 is used with modern
John, I've been using DX4WIN for several years now. It is good for DXing, paper chasing, and includes controls for all your radio's and the following rotator controllers: Sartek, Orion M2, HD1780, "m

My Orion sounded like a banjo the other day. There, now we can really enjoy the banjo and accordian jokes! 73, Duane (I left my car unlocked with a banjo in it the other day. When I got back, I found
The "display darkening" concern is much ado about nothing. I can see what is being described on my radio, but it took someone pointing it out to me before I noticed it. It's an "oh, huh" kind of thin
Maybe they're wanting a manual with lots of large pictures and small words? 73, Duane (yes, that was a snide remark - sorry - I'm bored too! All the W6_ stations are on 20m, so it's hard to work the
I've decided that I don't use this radio enough to hang on to it. Radio is in very good condition, 9 out of 10, both electrically and cosmetically. It has the latest level of firmware installed (vers
Eric, It works for me, but, curiously, I get a nice "buzz" on frequencies above 28.100 MHz from the fan when I do this. I think it's my Y-cable, but I still haven't remembered to replace it to be sur
