I've recently done it on an Argonaut II. Here's my instructions: 1) Remove the top and bottom covers of the rig 2) Remove the 4 screws holding the front panel (2 each side) 3) You don't need to remov
I did it about 2 years ago and I sold my Argonaut II afterwards (I had too may HF rigs and had just built a K2). The panel in my Argonaut wasn't broken: I just thought it could have been improved wit
Bill, It was a special item, made specially for me, as far as I can remember. The only email correspondence I can find with Paul at Glowsafe was his email to me on 28th August 2008, telling me he had
It's ICom commands OK, called CI-V if I remember right. I fiddled around for ages with the TenTec TTL to RS232 box and got abosolutely nowhere. I bought a serial to DB9 connector for ICom rigs off EB
I have an Omni V but it has a decidely non-standard DB25 serial interface on it. It was impossible to get CAT working on it until I installed Carl's (N4PY) Omni V.9 ROM which transformed the serial i
I run a lot of digital modes and normally keep the power below 50 watts. Just occasionally - ie in contests - I need a little more power, especially using RTTY. What's the maximum power I could run u
I had a similar problem some years ago. I could see a "warble" on my PSK31 signal on the waterfall of my digital modes program MixW. It only happened on certain bands which, in retrospect, was the gi
I'm sitting here looking at my Argonaut V... The button count and positions are the same on the Eagle and so are the knobs, except they're labelled differently. The "MULTI" knob will take care of mos
I did the PTO in my Corsair a number of times in an attempt to cure a warble - which was caused by a dirty pot and not the PTO! I got quite adept at it and could do it in about 2 hours including taki
The warble on my Corsair II was only on certain bands. If I remember right, the offending pot on my Corsair II was the pot which supplied a preset voltage to the varicap which in turn provided an ext
About a year ago I replaced a faulty digital encoder on my Omni V. I put it all back together and everything worked fine except the indicator lights for the crystal filters: the light indicated the n
Some time ago I replaced the main tuning digital encoder which was faulty. It involved taking off the front panel and removing all the connectors at the back of it. I put it all back together and I t
Many thanks to all for the helpful suggestions. I'll take a deep breath and dive in! 73 Bob Towers MM0RKT _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com htt
I thought I'd revisit my old Omni V.9 - Christmas season, and all that - and have a look at interfacing a SDR in the 9Mhz IF circuit. It turned out to be a remarkably easy project using my Flex 1500,
I recently fired up my Omni V before planning to fit a 9MHz IF SDR panadapter. I have a 9MHz SDR and am about to build a SMD IF buffer amp. All bands except 20m work fine. On 20m I can hear nothing a
Pete, Many thanks for your comments. I'll have a look at the relay board. I've got the manual, so I should be able to find the board pretty quickly. The buffer amp is G4HUP's PAT (Panoramic Adapter T
Dwight When I had my Corsair 2, I had a warble on a number of the HF bands. I could clearly see it on PSK31 signals on the waterfall of MixW. I rebuilt the PTO a number of times but it didn't cure th
