BBB, check eastsides tram no audio post, 2nd page, the pictures of my titan 2 are in there.
UPDATE: I placed a capacitor/resistor order today for the restoration. I found I had (3) new 47uf/450v caps and (2)0.47uf caps in my inventory so I bypassed the main 40/40/40uf cap with those 47uf caps...
That sucks. The part that blew up could be in relations to the part or circuit you were having troubles with originally but with so many variables given here there is hard starting point. Its either a smoked resistor or capacitor. If these radios are to be used today they need to be recapped for...
There is a grey 4 or 4.7uf cap on the rear of the radio is the one you need to check as that's in the audio line to the final tubes, it has a resistor over it.. My radio has blue Nichicon caps which are newer than the ones in your radio when they made it, but I am still replacing mine out...

you got audio, good thing, sounds like it is a coupling capacitor in the path causing problems if it is fading in and out would be my best guess with the lower mic signal and then when you talk louder it is more drive/gain and this old worn down cap/part cannot take in the load of the previous...
Sounds good. I am in the middle of placing a capacitor order for my titan 2, I am going to replace every single capacitor inside. It would be best if you downloaded the sams photofact as it points out all these parts in a picture detailed overhead view diagram and I can just give you part...
Eastside,
There is a cap on pin 1 of the mic plug, that is a .002. It should read 2nf, or around that value. You have to clip one lead out of circuit or cut it out and test it and then solder it back in, as you need to replace every cap in there regardless. Then there are two more caps...
First you need to make sure that V10, V11, and V12 tubes are all good and checked and remove that possibility right off the bat. Like 357 said, audio tube V12 could be done. It going to be either a 6GK6 (thin tube) or a 6GM5 (fatter tube) depending on the build of your tram titan 2 and its...
BBB,
I have done lots of in-depth research and studying schematics circuitry into this as its really got my curiosity. I am going to be ordering parts for a complete recap for this radio this week.... When I key up there is a forward "thrush" for a quick moment, the needle bursts forward and...
Ok process of elimination, I swapped out the 12AX7 (squelch/AF amp) and the 6al5 (anl/det) with two different NOS versions and no-go, still had the keyup squawk, not a tube issue. I will report back with a update once I completely recap this entire radio, however I will be doing it circuit by...
I have tried cleaning the relay with both relay contact spray and also a dollar bill. it did not fix the squawking issue but it did give me a little better clearer/cleaner signal/audio on transmit when I listened to myself on my own watergate that I use for audio quality testing.
BBB, I have...
I will try cleaning the relay. I cleaned all the tube pins and sockets. This radio is like new, no corrosion anywhere.... the cleanest one I have seen. I tested the .002 uf coupling caps between the Volume and Limiter circuit and they read a little low, 1.5 and 1.6 nf, when they should be...
I have a completely stock mint condition Tram Titan 2 that is using a D104 Gstand, so its a element only setup. It was super loud as hell so I replaced the input 220K ohm resistor to a 1 Meg and it made the D104 element usable and not over bearing. I noticed when I key up the radio when the...
I am looking for a clean davemade M40, M80 and the M200 (if its a straight 2 pill HD thats fine). Please message and send pics, I know what reasonable pricing is on these as I have owned them in the past. MUST HAVE ORIGINAL TOSHIBA TRANSISTORS as the box will be run on higher volts. no red...
Hello,
I have a great working Uniden President HR-2600 that is a straight 10 meter only radio (no chipswitch). It comes with the stock 5 pin microphone, internal speaker plug and a short power cord off the rear. $115 shipped, paypal only. Radio will ship via Fedex home delivery the same or...
For your consideration:
I have a Wavenode WN-2 RF wattmeter system for sale. It comes with a power supply for shack operations or you can connect 12v battery or into vehicle either stand alone with a computer for a elaborate setup! It comes with 1.8-60mhz sensor modules: LP-1 module (up to...
I have a Skullcracka 2-2879 amp for sale in this forum, its the deluxe version, scroll down the list of for sale items and there is also pics of it. These are so hard to get ahold of nowadays and they are considered a colllectors amplifier to many people now, I have had 12 PM's but no one has...
It depends what you have for trade, i am getting out of the hobby for awhile, so either CB or non CB related we could work something out. Whatcha got? pm me if you want or just respond here.
