I buy my stakes from a butcher in Buffalo. Molasses supplemented Aberdeen Angus. It doesn’t get any better than that IMO. They’re fried on charcoal, never on propane.

Yes, many other 23 channel number plates will work. I have also modified them to fit on the appropriate knob, so at least that portion is correct for the radio. The problem is that I ran out of all my 23 channel plates, so I thought I would try to obtain an exact original first. I’ll probably...

I’m looking to purchase a 23 channel knob for a recently restored Pearce Simpson Tiger 23C. Other Pearce Simpson 23 channel knobs like the Tiger Mark2 will also work.

I restored one of those myself recently.

I have many Cybernet radios and countless Cobra mics. That’s one reason I usually rewire the Cybernet radio’s jack over to the Cobra standard. That way I can always try a many different mics. Like NZ8N stated, Cybernet mics are wired upside down. Look at my bottom diagram for the conversion and...

Day late....Dollar short...Merry Xmas and happy New Year!

Note: For an external antenna connection in this case, I usually use a female SMA to female BNC adapter. Far more products support the old BNC standard, hence it will allow you more options.

Enhanced version with spliced schematic.

What Blackview tablet do you have? The 12, 13, 15, 80 plus other Blackview USB-C boards are all sold on AliExpress and elsewhere. Most are connected with a ribbon cable inside and the boards are simply attached with screws. No soldering required. I see that some of the boards even provide...

I was curious about some of the early mics used in Bob Dylan’s new official trailer, specially this skinny microphone with the large windscreen as shown in the photo. It was mentioned that only period (1964-1965) mics were used in the making of this movie. Thanks to others asking this same...

I found the enhanced version that I neglected to post along with the schematic.

I buy 3.5mm male to male mono audio cables and cut the cable in half. Saves me a lot of tedious soldering.

Cobra 86XLR

An enhanced version of the Cobra 32XLR with a separate spliced schematic. A few others will follow.

Thanks for having the original scan of the Robyn SB-520D, this is my enhanced service manual. I also included a spliced and separate redrawn schematic.

First, those look repairable, but if you want new, try the following link. They’re typical RF chokes for the DC power line. https://www.ebay.com/itm/172874371507?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5336136228&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1

Besides replacing all the electrolytic capacitors, two revisions were done on this radio. A heat sink was added to the audio chip, and my usual Din to 4 pin mic jack conversion. Initially the audio IC (uPC1224H) was fried. Fortunately I found another one in my audio IC bin. I believe it was...

Further study with respect to turning the news over to the entertainment industry, plus the elimination of the Fairness Doctrine is needed IMO.
