In my case, I am absolutely positive. We're splitting hairs here as to what to call the noise. It's a mechanical noise and as N4UC said, the noise is heard on the relay break, not the make. I can pro
Knowing the history of the TenTec list, I'd say this is rapidly starting down another slippery slope where we dissect definitions of terms and question the abilities of others to make simple observat
Yes - that's how this thread started a couple of days ago. _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/tente
Good question, and one that has been discussed over the years on this and other forums. Everyone who responds will have a different slant on it - here's mine. The meaning of QSK is that one can hear
And if a "conservative" doesn't like what someone else says or does, he calls them a liberal. I think your comments are out of place here, Mike. There's no need to demonize someone because he doesn't
Dave - I suggest you review carefully your connection to R26. That IS the right point for the tap and if you connected to R26 noting which side goes to ground, you will have signal there. I've used t
Mike - I'm curious about just what you think isn't right about the spectrum display frequency. I have 3.029 installed on my O2 and the display looks just as it should - LSB signals to the left of cen
Interesting article, and I know it addresses only the receivers, but sometimes it's just hard to keep quiet. I guess that with the current state of the art in these high-end transceivers, it would be
As someone else said, set Mark to High. Make sure you have mode set to FSK. PBT should be at zero. I run the O2 on RTTY regularly. 73, K8AC _______________________________________________ TenTec mail
I've nothing to add to the FT5K - O2 roofing filter discussion, but currently have an O2 which replaced an FT5K I had for a short time. If you're a CW operator contemplating an FT5K replacement for y
For users or potential users of NaP3/LP-Pan with the Orion - the latest version supports the Orion as an Orion. I'm using it with an Orion II and everything works perfectly. 73, K8AC ________________
Hi Peter. Take a look at NaP3. It was derived from PowerSDR with a simplified screen layout for use as a panadaptor. It's free, the support is excellent, and there's a Yahoo group supporting the prod
Barry - do you know if the output level of the RX366 if different from what you get when using the IF tap point on the main receiver? I've been using LP-Pan/NaP3 fed from a tap on the main receiver t
Barry - when I called TenTec a couple of years ago about the caps for my recently acquired Orion II, they sent me what was needed at no cost. Worth a try. 73, K8AC ___________________________________
Regarding the Orion II vs K3: I think Barry hit all the key nails on the head regarding the K3 shortcomings. One thing I'd disagree with just slightly: I don't consider the move from K3 to Orion II o
I have a nice 238B tuner for sale. The disc caps have been replaced with Russian high voltage doorknob caps. $360 shipped to you. Email me at k8ac at k8ac.net if interested. Photos available. 73,
The problem is not on the QSK board, it's on the Filament/AC board. Q1 and/or Q2 are bad. You'll need to pull the board out so you can get to Q1, which is on the back side of the board. To do that
Rodney - chances are good that EVERYONE who owns a Centurion has a meter that doesn't read correctly. Changes in value over time of the resistor string involved in developing the meter voltage will
Frank - I'm a Centurion owner who has done quite a bit of work on the amp and will offer some info that may be of help. You might consider posting a question on the eHam Amplifiers forum which is fr
If you own a Centurion amplifier with a damaged meter, I've located a currently-available replacement meter that can be used in place of either of the two original meters. Of course, there's a catch
