I visited a friend down in CA this week and saw his Argosy 525. A pretty slick little rig. If I could get one at a reasonable price or for a reasonable trade, I would be a happy camper.Reasonable aes
I recently advertised looking for an oldie goodie Argosy. It arrived and turns out to not have 30m. I suppose it is a really early rig (S/N 525-0928). As I have not bee following Tentec gear for near
I am going to do a swap of filters between one of my OmniVIs and the newly acquired Argosy. I will be pulling the 500 Hz crystal filter (217) from the Argosy, replacing with an INRAD 1000 Hz from the
I guess the light was too dim... I just didn't see the 10.0 position on the bandswitch. Have a great day, guys, and see ya on 30m! -- 73 Allan K7GT ____________________________________________
I am looking for a spare AIrPax circuit breaker rated for the current draw and protection of an Argosy 525. Does anyone happen to have one? -- 73 Allan K7GT ___________________________________
I recently acquired a Palstar tuner and now have a 238 Tentec tuner for sale. Price is $300 firm plus shipping. Lower 48 only. -- 73 Allan K7GT _______________________________________________
A few weeks back I posted a query as to how one might parallel two Astron RS50M power supplies to power a Hercules II. After mulling the replies received, I decided it best to ask Astron about it. Th
A follow-on to my recent post: After printing out the .gif file (it came with the lettering top to bottom...) and reading it more carefully, I see that the wire connecting the terminals on back for p
I recently came across an ad for a 9423 remote head for the Herc II on qrz.com. The rice was HIGH. I wonder if there is someone out there who has the manual for the 9423 so one could be replicated? I
I have two venerable OmniVIs. Love 'em! As it turns out, I need to find a minimally-invasive way to 'grab' the 'T' signal and get it to the outside world. I do not wish to steal another output but ra
A thread of late concerns replacement speakers for older TT transceivers. It seems a perfect fit has been found. I need to replace the speaker in one of my TT power supplies (either a 961 or 962, hav
I have an Argosy 525 that I purchased a little over a year ago. Situations to use it have not materialized and I would like to find it a home where it will be used. (Will be using the K2 or perhaps e

I need a simple mike for my recently-acquired Corsair II. Does anyone have a stray Tentec 701 or 705 they would be willing to part with? Or another flavor of mike? It does need a PTT switch but other
I am mulling making up a specialty interface cable set between the Omnivi, Herc II, and several other devices. I would like to obtain the connector for the Herc II independently from TT. Only the TT
I just read in digest form the stream of emails concerning the use of non-Tentec amps with a Corsair or OmniV or OmniVI radio. I am curious to know why the Tentec QSK loop (ala OmniVI...) fails with
I am finding I just don't use my Tentec Argosy 525. It is in reasonable shape, has the RF gain pot mod, full power, etc. Has noise blanker, audio filter, amp keying output, crystal calibrator. The PT
