There is a couple guys here that run npc or asymmetrical modulation type mods, and if properly set up and monitored can produce some nice audio without becoming nasty. For a long time commercial radio stations have boosted positive peak modulation while holding negative peaks below 100%. It...

Actually if you look at the models in the above manual, it looks like later meters used the same case with a metal plate and a different movement. Go look at model number 4116 Same case, round meter movement, possibly they were not able to source the original movement anymore and started...

Might be as simple as a open diodes considering it's limited power rating and today's operations........ If it's the movement There's a part number in the manual, worse the guys at bird can say is no if you ask them if they have it. I know it's older than dirt, but worth a call. Might be...

Model number 4111 I think is it. 73 Jeff

The Francis Triple quarter wave went out of production years ago, and people have been looking for them for just as long. If you search around you will find some of posts here about the Fire Up fire stick add-on in this section. I tried it years ago and didn't see any notable difference. 73 Jeff

See the below quote from Rogerbird " Cure for High SWR with covers off or on Usually this problem is caused by the fact that Uniden did not install an insulator between the MRF477 Final and the heatsink. The mounting tab of the MRF477 (and MRF497) is 'Power' Ground and the heatsink is...

What is the input tune, from the Lincoln, SWR meter, amp, amp turned on. This idea is going to sound nuts , take the top cover off the Lincoln and test again and see if the problem goes away. The older Uniden 2510/Lincoln chassis had a issue with the radio oscillating at weird random times...

Mine survived countless Sierra storms, snow, mono winds, ice, never came down. They work very well and are built like a brick shit house. I talked to him back in april , told me he had been getting requests for 10k antennas and was thinking about getting back into building again. 73 Jeff
