    RCI 2995DX

    You do have a 2995DX correct? The 2166 and 2312 are your drivers, the finals in that radio are a pair of Toshiba 2290’s. Those are 80 watt finals. There is no reason to mess with the drivers, you should be getting around 150 watts from that radio.

    Can i get the good the bad the ugly on

    Bingo, that's what I would buy. How much is it worth broken? If you like the radio and plan on using it then might as well fix it with the correct final.

    Do you have a model or part number?

    Texas Star DX 667V Max PEP Drive Power

    The 667 can be a cranky beast when overdriven, and it will run hot. Best two upgrades are larger feed wire and add a fan. Don't be surprised if the right AM input dead key ends up being 1 watt or less. For the PEP input on SSB you can use the law of diminishing returns. If say 22 watts PEP gives...

    jo-gunn smokin' gun II vs. Maco Y quad

    909 Tony owns Joe Gunn now, you can catch him in there on 36 and 38 LSB in the evening. I would love to try a Joe Gunn some day.

    Dx400 bilateral attenuator

    I see. Maybe Ranch55 will see this and have a suggestion either way.

    Dx400 bilateral attenuator

    Both those radio's have an RF power control, turn the drive down. For SSB use I would start both radio's at 8-10 watts PEP and see what the Max power is out of the Texas Star. Then you can adjust up from there. Probably won't need more then 10-20 watts on SSB. Should sounds great. If you really...

    RCI 2995DXCF alignment procedure questions

    Nothing is failing that’s what happens when things get hot. Maybe add a fan kit or try to come up with a plan to cool the radio down. You could also consider a TCXO circuit/mod.

    LED bar/S/RF 2995 DX HP

    I would say no. With current RCI radio’s it is what it is. That led bar graph is ballpark at best. There is no direct correlation between the two.

    Cobra 2000 barely any transmit power going out ???

    If you have a trusted shop that close it would be pretty easy to ship it to them. Just double box it and use those foam peanuts.

    FC-30BT and a FC390 frequency counters

    If you click on the third picture you can see the plug it comes with. They are designed to plug into the back of a radio that has that style port already there. A tech might be able to do a hard wire in, not sure. That said this post is from 2013 and he marked them sold.

    HR2510 final, from MRF477 to 2sc1969

    Too bad HG doesn’t make a mrf477 replacement, it’s just feels wrong to have to have a conversation about a mosfet mod for these great old radios. At this point it’s probably the only option left to keep them going.

    Getting started

    I get what your saying but those in-expensive Baofeng radio's do come in handy. I have two that are programed with FRS,GMRS, MURS, 2M, and 70CM. For me they kinda function as a listening device or scanner. One is set up with an antenna designed for GMRS. For the 25 bucks I paid used if I happen...

    TS430S With one blown final (options please)

    https://www.rfparts.com/2sc2290a-mp.html Not sure what the HG’s run but $119 for a matched pair is not terrible. I don’t know if they ship your way or not.
