    Skipper 300 blown

    Was talking on a skipper 300 the other night when all of a sudden I heard a loud clunk. Amplifier has no output. I think the transformer may have blew a winding? What do you all think? Thank you

    Chassis condition

    Those rectangular spots are just caused by the angle of the louvers on the top of the cases and the way the light is hitting them. . They look great

    Chassis condition

    I seem to see a lot of older transformers look that way, I don’t know why but they do. Also, after I received the radio it was basically spotless when I wiped it down.

    Separate RX/TX

    What I am looking to do is, have one radio dedicated for receive. And one dedicated for transmit right next to each other. Will this device allow me to transmit on one radio and then when I un-key, the other radio will receive? That’s what I’m looking to accomplish thank you

    New spt500 gamma

    For sure. I was just wondering if the long side or short side of the insulator faced the top of the radial plate. The manual seems to show the long side up but it came out of the box short side up

    New spt500 gamma

    I’ll probably use it like this, the way originals were done. Long side down. Maybe a call to hy gain is in order
