    Boomer 400 RF making 50 amp switching power supply buzz.

    Will give that a try. Thank you. I actually bought the 50 amp to run the Boomer. I have a 36a that did not do this. Also my inline showed around 30 amps draw.

    Boomer 400 RF making 50 amp switching power supply buzz.

    400. I have one of those amp/voltage/watt demand meters that I can run in line and it reports that I am drawing 220w and 17.87amps max. It is a Mega Watt supply that only runs the Boomer. Output wise keys at 110w and swings to 410W(Probably not realistic that is what the meter I have shows). The...

    Boomer 400 RF making 50 amp switching power supply buzz.

    Have a boomer 400 that was causing my 50amp switching power supply to make a slight buzzing during modulation into a dummy load. I took two ferrite clamping beads and installed them on the power wires and they buzz like crazy. What would cause this? I noticed that the internal variable cap. in...

    Galaxy 99V Bad sounding SSB

    I think from what I read that there would only be low power on the peaks if it was related to the diodes. http://www.cbtricks.com/cgi-bin/database/galaxy_db.cgi?details=1&key=21. Crazy if you can wait 10 1SS53 NEC's from China 4$. Want them now 6$ each. Yes I have a 99V with the exact same...

    LeapFrog I copy that. Went to run a fire dozer this year back there. Saw a CL add from Roanoke that posted amplifier equipment/parts. So I was intrigued and called.

    EVER HAD A VISIT FROM THE FCC ???

    Have to agree with Kaos. They are around with plenty of Techs coming out of the military that have dealt with some tuff stuff. They come around fire camp and make sure we are not using "offshore freqs maritine" which many of my Fire compadres used as chat channels. There is no channel other...
