    WTB: ChipSwitch IC chip for HR-2510, HR-2600 and President Lincoln

    Well, I do appreciate the insights. I had no intention of paying $175+ for a chip. I was just testing the waters to see what existed out here. I recently acquired an HR-2600 that I wanted to mess around with. I do have a second gen 2950 already, as well as many other radios. I am a licensed ham...

    I did see his youtube video about this in my search. Thanks for the heads up, though.

    WTB: ChipSwitch IC chip for HR-2510, HR-2600 and President Lincoln

    Looking to buy a Chipswitch IC for the President radios named above. If you have one for sale, preferably NOS, or know someone who may have one, please let me know.

    Looking for information SS-3000HP, EPT300010A board

    I checked all of the transistors, and they were all fine. I replaced some elctrolytics with new ones, but the ones I replaced all tested fine anyway. I did find one thing, which to someone with more knowledge may mean something. I think I found where the extra 5k is coming from. The PLL mixer...

    Looking for information SS-3000HP, EPT300010A board

    I was just hoping maybe there were some more ideas on what this issue could be. I went through the RX again and it works great and on frequency. I even ran through the transmit cans and I get a great output 2w dk on low swing to 10 and 5.5w dk on hi swing to 25. Also, the best part about this...

    Looking for information SS-3000HP, EPT300010A board

    Well, thank you for the schematic. Unfortunately, I have the radio at work and I am home now, so I will have to take a look tomorrow. The radio is definitely receiving on frequency. It actually receives pretty decently for an export. But, yes, when I key up I am 5 khz too high on all bands. I...

    Looking for information SS-3000HP, EPT300010A board

    Hello, all. I know this was in the forums almost 10 years ago at this point and nothing ever came of it. I am looking for information on this Superstar SS-3000HP radio I have. I rescued this rig from the junk pile and got it back to *almost* working condition. I have the receive working...

    RF Signal Generator/Radio Alignment Question

    Thanks for the info. I sent a request, so I guess we will see what will happen. In other news, I realized I also have an Agilent 20mhz function/sweep generator, but I am not sure how useful this would be. I believe it may be used moreso with FM? I could be wrong. Anyway, I am looking forward...

    RF Signal Generator/Radio Alignment Question

    I have seen your RF generator posts from a few years ago. What did you end up with? I was given this generator and I noticed the waveform at low power was extremely dirty looking, but I was hoping it would be fine to toy around with some old Cobra 29s or what not. Is something under $200 even...

    RF Signal Generator/Radio Alignment Question

    Hello all, New to the forums, have been reading for a while though. I have a question related to an RF signal generator I have recently acquired. Using a calibrated frequency counter the output of said generator is actually quite accurate and pretty stable. My question comes with the output...
