I dont know waste time trying to talk to that fool in any capacity. I shake my head anytime anyone falls for it and wants to start going back and forth with him. It is what he wants. Like the “brick and mortar” tech yesterday talking about how he jams 19, but then jams 19 himself also going back...

I had the same issue with a 138xlr. Similar chassis as well.

I have visited that site a handful of times over the years. Cannot remember getting bad info, but mind you it was only a few times I visited.

How did it go?

The Flasher on AM. Took my late Fathers handle over after he passed in 2018. Before that, I was The Green Hornet. I had the truck to back it back then. A nearly neon green 1977 M880 military Dodge. Had a Green Hornet painted on both fenders. Ran a steel whip on a quad mag mount back then. Tall...

I will be trying on the 9th. I get home from work far too late to catch most of you all being I am in Arizona.

I imagine so. I rebuilt a grenaded one with 13N10’s. Not too sure what you may find as far as more power though. Keep in mind the circuit board is double sided.

Yesterday evening I heard alot of traffic out of FL, and many were talking about taking their higher profile antennas down. Others were leaving them up. They all have been coming in best in the evenings. Hope to hear many on this evening! That would at least mean they are well enough to shoot...

I believe it would be best to do so, yes. I have always been inside of the cab where the coax routing ends to do testing. That, or far enough away from the antenna as to know I am not influencing the readings. Not too sure how much you could unless you are right next to it though. I admit I have...

I had a 19 plus model. Worked well as far as the day I used it. Gave it away though, as I had paid nothing for it.

Try looking into a Nano VNA. A bit smaller, yes. But, best of my knowledge they do everything the ZOOM’s do and then some. Seem to go for around a quarter of the price also.

Try? It is fairly easy. Given the cost of the boards the resistor needed is a drop in a bucket if it is indeed needed. At times I think you reply hoping someone comes back at you in as much of a negative way as you come at them. I will not feed your demon there, but I will echo what many have...

Klondike Mike is indeed the man here. He has done well by me for a few years.

Likely with a nano vna or an antenna analyzer.

You put new transistors in? Or tested them properly? Could be a relay contact issue also I would imagine. I have one that began to go deaf and I confirmed it was the relay itself.

I did buy a handful of these after reading this thread back then. I still have yet to use one. I rebuild my own (all or most, if needed) original elements with as many original parts as possible. I usually stick to crystal and ceramic though. This is making me want to mess with one of the late...

I have one that does the same thing. As soon as you turn it on, even not hooked to a radio it keys up. You can hear the relay click. I may be wrong, but I believe the keying transistor is popped on mine.

Doesnt sound right to me. Output should remain consistent if I understand everything you have said correctly. Sounds like something could be amiss with the radio. Hard to know for sure.

I do not think that either I have possess this capacitor array. One receives no issues whatsoever. The other hears, but zero white noise so to speak..
