1. [Amps] Alpha 89 Fuse Blowing (score: 1)
Author: "Robert Carroll" <w2wg@comcast.net>
Date: Sun, 5 Aug 2007 16:35:26 -0400
Seeing there have been several recent discussions of amps blowing fuses, I'd like to ask for opinions on my Alpha 89. For about two years now the amp will be trouble free for a couple of months and t

I have an Alpha 89 which about once a month blows the upper fuse or very rarely activates the fault circuitry, and on a recent occasion gave a grunt about 15 seconds after turn on, continued running

I recently started using my old backup radio, a FT1000MP which I have owned for many years. The main rig was out for repair. I normally drive an Alpha 86 or 89 with QSK pin diode switching. After scr

Author: "Robert Carroll" <w2wg@comcast.net>
Date: Sat, 8 Mar 2008 19:10:26 -0500
I have been told that modern solid state HF transceivers have been designed to deliver rated power into a stated load resistance-almost always around 50 ohms-but that their effective internal impedan

After 20 years or so, the dust filter on the external fan on my Alpha 86 is disintegrating. This is a square of almost paper-thin foam which fits in a frame on the input side of the fan. It looks a l

My aged Alpha 86 has burned out its tuning dial lamps. They are nasty to get to. Has anyone successfully replaced the lamps in an 86 or 89 with LEDs? If so could you send me some details? 73 Bob W2WG

Can someone tell me what bulb is used for the AL86 tuning lamps and whether they are powered from AC or DC. I have found a possible replacement, but my manual and schematics do not provide lap inform

I have a very early AL80B. It will produce 500-700W key down on all bands--except 30m. Of course you don't need much of an amp on 30m with the limit being 200W, but I am curious as to what the proble

I have an odd problem with an Alpha 89 -only below around 1815 kHz on 160m, nowhere else, and I am looking for ideas. The Alpha 89 tuning chart shows that the loading control around 1825 is probably

There is also a slightly earlier version of this fine tuner which does not have the auto range detection. You must manually set it to the appropriate range via a slide switch. 73 Bob W2WG --Original

Yes--the coax length does have an effect, and though my Alphas are from 1993 and earlier the manuals (which were all "preliminary") did suggest the use of a connecting coax of about 5 or 6 feet. With

Hopefully no one would run a multi quarter wave line for a match in the shack since, if you look at the Smith chart, you are back to where you started after a 360 angular rotation on the chart. The p
