I have a Galaxy DX44v that on all channels the receive volume is very low you can hardly hear DX through the speaker it works fine as far as transmit. I even tried a external speaker and it is no better what can I replace or check to make this better. Thanks Jimbo165

I have checked all the diodes in counter , voltage regulator not sure how to check it but unit is coming on and showing frequency but wrong and keeps changing.

Any ideas on what I need to check or replace Thanks.

A Lot of amps do give you the choice of if you want to run 110v or 220v I just wondered if it was worth the trouble to install a 220v line for one of these amps. If there is not a real noticeable power increase I guess it will not be worth the extra cost.

Yes binrat I was talking about a tube amplifier. I see heathkits, Dentons and others can be converted but I was just curious if I would get a real noticeable increase in power output on them?

This is a question that I would like to get some info on if I convert a amplifier from 110vac to 220vac will I get a increase in output or wattage from the amplifier? On actual use will you see a increase? thanks Jimbo

I have a Digalog CRC100 that just started acting up. Instead of reading frequency it just keeps changing but stays around 23.000 but will not stay locked any ideas on what I can do to fix it. Thanks Jimbo

I would like to ask is it normal for a watt meter showing pep watts to show a wattage difference switching from a antron 99 to a 3 element gizmotchy beam. When my brother is using his amplifier putting out 1k there is a 200 watt pep difference that will show on the meter. The beam shows 200w...

Well we took out 6lq6 tubes and replaced them with some NOS 6km6 tubes and amp is really starting to come alive. With a low watt radio we are seeing over 1300 watts pep out of amp now and amp does not even get warm my son is using it everyday now. Best thing is we bought 20 6km6 tubes so we...

It has been a while and amp on owners shelf waiting for a fix now. One of the techs I talked to here and I am sure to not explain it quite right but he said batteries were probably used to put a - voltage to tube grid screen to turn tube off. This way it would draw very little from batteries...

Amp done new keying circuit and a very good cleaning of tube sockets also replaced 7 tubes amp still down on power but believe still needs better tubes getting about 900 watts out pep now. We are looking for tubes now 6LQ6 . This amp looks like new and we have not found any info about yet...

Well amp is at techs he is by passing old keying circuit and building a new one has it keying up at 1/2 watt now. He not quite done with amp but I will post all that was wrong with it when I find out.

I have a Sencore TC114 tube tester I have been using and when testing some tubes after letting tube warm up and testing it on emissions test they will show ok but when I switch to Grid test will stay in red bad zone then slowly move into Ok green . I mark on these tubes slow grid but have found...

Wavrider thanks for the info I have tried to check all diodes and caps but no luck wish we had a good tech in my area close but donot that will work on tube amps. I am still looking for a schematic but will put it on shelf for now. Thanks Jimbo165

My son has bought a Transel Magnum 600 does anyone know where I can get a wiring schematic and info about this amp. It looks like original relay has been replaced and amp will not key up. Everything comes on and switches all work but when I key a radio into amp the relay does nothingI can touch...

BJ radionut you are right that's what tubes are in it . It works good right now even with those old caps does the 100w and has a nice loud modulation increase when using it not sure if I want to put much into amp but may replace caps if I can get some at a reasonable price that value is...

Here is a couple of pictures amp right now only has a 100w output . Thanks Jimbo

I picked up a amplifier at a hamfest and need any type of information about it you can tell me please . It has Electronic Engineering Co , Model LR-1 , serial number- Hediblaf on side of amp has 6 tubes in it 4- 6gk6, 1-504 BG, 1 tube with numbers wiped off. Any help will be appreciated...

Well went thru complete alignment by cb tricks and radio is still got a problem transmiting on ssb it keeps changing I even have set it to another radio by talking to him and setting transmit freq to come in on freq on their radio but still same next time turn radio on it is off . This radio...

I have a Galaxy Melaka that was aligned by our local tech because I was having problem with SSB he showed how and what to adjust for SSB to get radio on frequency and clarifier on middle position but every time I turn on radio clarifier position to clear people up has changed and also my...
