I think its working and you were right it was out of tune i was able to get some noise and from the speaker by tuning T300 the antenna transformer. then i tuned t300 t302 and then t301 by ear for the most static then i hooked up the signal generator and tweeked the numbers i had to switch to ac...
I swapped out the v301, and v302 tubes and swapped out the x-300 5.8mhz cystal but no luck. im worried about tuning the T302 because it is so old ill read the alignment instuctions in the manual Im also getting a low amount of static from pin 1 when i touch it but pin 2 is the most with about...
Its working pretty good for having been doa with 4watts into the demon it produces about 220watts dead key and swing about 280watts . and it swings about 285watts on side band.
I began to check tube voltages when i touched v302 pin 2 the am receive came back to crystal and manual mode. then i traced the static down to C311 there was no static on the other side of it. C312 has static on the other side. and R308 had no static on the other side of it. it measured 99k ohm...
Success, I pulled the pink wire from the diodes. turned it on and, the transformer is okay so far. I Replaced all the diodes and the two big caps /resistors. Then i turned it on. success. Then i replaced the tubes one by one . and Success. tomorrow i will test it.
I checked tube voltages. v502 pin 3 should be 40 volts. it measured negative voltage. I traced back to r520 and on the other side of r520 the voltage is back to 230v is this resistor bad?
I have just purchased a refurbished Tram D201. I decided to attached a siltronix vfo by removing the 16.5585 crystal i Did the modification right but when was putting it back together i got a phone call That distracted me. well when i transmitted i realized i had not plugged the internal cables...
Hi, i dont know the relay pin numbers so i swapped out the relay no change checking the voltages both A and B on both tubes were still the same low/no voltages.
The v602 voltages are okay but the v600A,and the v601B, voltages are very low or negative voltage im starting at v601 in the schematic and checking the resistors
i swapped out one tube at a time starting with v600 then to v700s then to three, four, and five hundred. When i swapped out v602 and turned it on the meter on the tram went all the way to the right side. I went on swapping out and checking then when i swapped out v401, the meter went back to...
