Guy brought me his x200 and output is about 50 percent of what it was. I immediately thought the transistors were bad, at least one of them. I could feel that one of them was getting hot, so I thought there is my imbalance. I replaced it. No change. Replaced the other 2879, and no change...
So i have had this radio put back a while. Dont remember the history of it but just that I thought the processor board was bad because the display is blank. Nothing other than the lights on each end. So, i swapped the display board out today for a known goo unit. Same problem! Any help would be...
It is either or. I have used it in the house on a 300 amp supply and on 12v it peaks on my Bulldog meter at 3200 and on 16v looks about 4300. The Bulldog is right with a bird with the pep kit
Thanks for the info. I recently acquired one and didn't know it's value. It is new. Guy ordered it but didn't realize what it would take to keep it fed with amperage. It's a 4x12
Failed Gamma
Has anyone found a cure for the weak gamma match on the Vector 4000? At 1000W pep the gamma match is shorting. The insulator sleeve that slides over the inner rod is burning a hole and causing arcing to the outer gamma housing, not to mention everyone that has failed was full of water.
I'm a big fan of the Sirio antennas. Have tried the higher end ones. The V4k was the best performing initially but developed problems quick. It is very limber. The dead soft aluminum stinger bent over the initial install on a couple customers V4k just from the whiplash of the antenna due to...
I've used this amp for 6 years with no issues. I just thought that a swap to 220v would make life a little easier for it.... By the way I have a Jon Boy box on the way :-)
I have been selling the sirio P5000 for 4 years. I am yet to find a antenna that will outperform it on tx and rx. I have personally ran 2200pep through it with the pl145 mount and 13ft 3in.of 9913 coax with no issues. I swear by this antenna. The only thing you need to do as a preventive measure...
Currently i use a BullDog 10K meter. I can run it in line with the Bird 43P and most scales are very close on pep and rms. I am thinking of upgrading to the LP-100A but wonder how user friendly it is when it comes to peaking a radio or tube amp. Can anyone advise? Thanks
