Damnit man, you had my heart pumping thinking you were getting rid of the Autek....

Hello Pierce, This appears to be the NPC-RC modification which stands for Negative Peak Compression- Reduced Carrier..... The diode is missing a 100 ohm resister and the blue wire is volting the final to 12 volts.. This mod when done correctly will allow the radio to operate with a 2 watt...

One Amp will work just fine.. The meter will draw only what it needs to operate..

Its AC to DC

Mine is the original that was sent with the meter when purchased.. Its just a little wallwart made by jameco. 120vac 5.5w input.. output says 9 volts dc @300 ma negative centerpin... I have not measured the actual output voltage but read someplace you can wire it up to your 12 volt...

I agree, that meter is a killer. I also have one I bought new when Autek was making them but its a white face one.. Im still lookin for the black model...

Looking good Tim. Curious did you ever get your Anytone repaired and what was the problem?

That RF Sampler is a PASSIVE device, it does not create harmonics or trash by a mixing scheme. What you are seeing is your actual transmitted signal. Wrap some wire around your coax and feed it to the scope, You'll see the same thing. Collins Radio used that same -30db design years ago.

By no means am I an expert and I really need to go to the VA for new glasses, BUT, you need to check your gamma assembly... After blowing up the picture I dont see the shorting bar.. After that stand it up vertically on plastic milk crates or tie a rope around the last director hoisting up via...

Shadetree, You dont need to use Declination... Heres a map centered on your state that shows where to point for any place.. Its close to poster size so you can print it at walmart and hang it in the shack... or just keep it on the desktop..

Welcome Kim, 2012 I remember reading about this on the forums.. RIP Billy and always remember RWOB....

Can you tell us the make/model of the desk, The whole area looks great.

It might be a 2sc2314, a common 27mhz driver transistor.. heres the data sheet for it, pwr out is around 1.5 watts.

Here's the instructions for Mosley's 3 element beam.
