Not only that, but an SSB contester might never care to listen to a signal any wider than 1.8 kHz and put such a filter in the wide position on purpose, as I have done. I don't care a darn about "low
I used to be suspicious of the idea of using say, a 135 ft long doublet, fed with ladder line (or any low loss line really) as compared to various "engineered" antennas. That is, until we changed our
I would advise care when charging this battery. If you charge it too aggressively, you will cause too much gassing, which in turn will force small amounts of gas out the safety vents if the pressure/
Please don't run high power on PSK. You will just raise absolute havoc. 73 de Gary, AA2IZ off I get only about 50 watts out with max audio drive measured on rf wattmeter. The O2 meter shows 100 watts
I seem to recall this problem and that a call to the mothership got them to send out a repair chip and then you put your own chip back in - or something like that. Call Ten-Tec. 73 de Gary, AA2IZ the
People will tell you that AFSK can be set up badly, so as to splatter and make a mess. That's true. But then again - so can FSK. I'd do AFSK cause its so much easier....but take the time to learn how
This idea is interesting to me. It would be an interesting side-line. I wonder how much of a "monthly donation" (say) that someone would be willing to part with - and how this would compare to the co
I had a Peg, and as I love computers mixed in with my Ham hobby, I was very pleased with it. However, as I do a lot of contesting, and the Peg was not at all up to contest service, I sold it and move
I like computer logging also. And my computer is never so slow that it would take 5 or 10 seconds to tell me if a call is a dupe...rather that indication pops up as soon as I enter the call...its the
Yes. You are right. For that matter, there are lots of operator issues, especially on FD, that give rise to delays, and worse. To blame this on computer logging or delays in the computer itself would
Yes....and the thickness is especially important. Other things being equal, and lacking specific performance specifications, note that the thicker fans are capable of more pressure at a given flow. Y
A wavy washer is literally wavy...kinda like a potatoe chip, but uniformly of course. A belleville washer is a conical device, meant to establish a specific load under a bolt head. They are different
I don't have RF problems either while running legal limit. It may be due to my grounding system, and also the fact that I have filters or chokes on every single wire going in or out of the radios, th
Connect the 12 volt power supply to an RCA plug, via a switch. On and off when you want. No mods to the unit. 73 de Gary, AA2IZ I just acquired a 229A tuner, and I can see that I will have an issue r
Yep....me too. The total Ham market is small. The portion of it that works HF is smaller still. And Ten tec gets only a portion of that. Without the high profit military stuff, companies like Ten Tec
