Ok I found the issue it was the volume/squelch on/off potentiometer. I ordered one and now waiting.
I do need the alignment procedures if anyone has it I can’t find, the RX and tax are off by around 1Mhz.
I received a CONNEX 3300HP that everything is working good on but the receive is very low. When I input a signal on say 27.205 MHz I can only hear it at -25dbm, I believe I should hear it at -100dbm or better? I cant find an alignment procedure for the radio. Any suggestions on where to look?
Guys I have a very COOL meter assembly I myself have never seen one complete like this and I’m thinking of selling as I have no use for it.
im not sure what it’s worth but will consider offers and any input about it’s possible value.
I made a quick video of it being used,
Also found a pamphlet...
What high voltage should I see running an SB-201 on 120VAC, I’m seeing 2100VDC on the SB-201 meter and 2300VDC on a bench meter.
I know the bench meter is correct at 2300VDC.
Hello guys, I had to edit this as a bit changed from what I thought. I picked up a stryker sr-655hp that has no AM power, FM and PA work and all other functions seem to be working. I did a factory reset on it and it seems to have the 11 Meter mod, pic below with board number.
I also noticed the...
I acquired an AL-811H from a friend but he said it had some issues so I did the following. Its wired for 220 so first thing I did was check to see if wired properly and check fuse values, all good. I pulled the tubes and tested continuity between pins and found one with a filament to grid short...
Great info once again, I ordered new filter caps a while back but haven’t revived them yet. I was planning on changing out all the electrolytic. I’ve been testing the HV resistors and all tested in spec surprisingly. Thee transmitter dosent seem to have much use/ time on it as the lid has no...
Well need a relay, tried cleaning but just chatters So ordered one like it with new base. Also when keyed I’m seeing all channels 2MHz low on all channels. Not sure if an alignment will give me back the 2 missing MHz?
Nomad are you ever wrong? Popped off the can today and sure as sh%t bare wire makes contact when moving around. Took care of that, re-installed and powered on with no issues. Unfortunately work around house had to be done so didn’t have the time to go any further. I’m guessing I will hook to...
ok, I tested the 6BA6 and it tested good, in fact I tested all the 6BA6 to compare and they all tested the same almost. I tested T4 and shows no shorts to any pins. Im seeing 7 & 7.2 ohms across them.
not sure but I’m seeing a short to chassis on all 6.3vac pins, I know one side goes to ground...
Thanks I seen that already. Looking at the schematic I believe it’s R23 dropping resistor 2.2k to T4 and plate of the tube. I’m going to lift it, check B+ voltage and check tube for shorts? See where that gets me.
I received a Mark III set and when I hooked up and turned on the receiver was giving off an odor and then a tiny bit of smoke. I flipped it over and found a resistor that go HOT! I don’t have a Sams for this so I’m not sure what’s going on. Here is a pic of the burnt resistor, I lifted one leg...
