    problem with palomar 300a

    Even if that is not the main problem they still need replacing after all those years. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. 45, North Florida

    problem with palomar 300a

    I have a friend that had the same issue with his 300 recently. The new electrolytics solved the problem Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. 45, North Florida

    problem with palomar 300a

    Good point too trucker. When the hv caps are weak, you will sound sort of like you're talking through a fan. Ask others on the air if this is what they are hearing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. 45, North Florida

    problem with palomar 300a

    I would check the HV capacitors first. They are pretty cheap and simple to replace. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. 45, North Florida

    I would still recommend the Texas star 250. They are AB biased and are very clean if not over driven, even on ssb. With about 15-18 watts of drive, they do about 150 and don't draw much current either. Maybe someone else will chime in with some other info and suggestions. '73 for now! Sent...

    The Texas star 250 is a nice and clean little amp that does about 150-200 watts with the 2950's power in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. 45, North Florida

    Anyone run a kenwood hybrid?

    Thanks ck. mine shows 9 at halfway. I guess I will leave it for now. I know it is just for a relative reading most of the time. I guess I'm just being too picky. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. 45, North Florida

    Anyone run a kenwood hybrid?

    Ok. Thanks guys. I have the service manual but it calls for an input signal and I'm having trouble finding a signal generator around here. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. 45, North Florida

    Anyone run a kenwood hybrid?

    Yea I agree with you beetle. I was just wanting to compare because while turning the rf gain back the S meter rises, as also while adjusting the S meter pot inside the radio while rf gain is at half way. Just wondering for a reference point. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. 45...

    Anyone run a kenwood hybrid?

    I was wanting to get some info from a hybrid user. Wandering what S meter reading you have when the rf gain is at 12:00 with no signal. I think my S meter is way off. Not that it matters that much. Just want to be close. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. 45, North Florida

    Wireless headsets?

    Well I have a radio shack wireless lapel mic and a set of RCA Wireless headphones hooked up to the ole kenwood 820 and so far have gotten good reports. Pretty neat setup actually. I should have thought of this way earlier. I did however have to hook up my low pass filter right after my amp to...
