    11 meter is very quiet?

    Here is that clarifier unlock guide I posted. (On the picture with the two small white wired clipped, ONLY do one.... I was curious if either could be clipped and it still yielded the same results. The video on youtube tried having you remove SMD components on the board which was not needed...

    11 meter is very quiet?

    There is an adjustment I believe on the top-righthand side of the board near the back next to that transformer. Just be very very careful as those small tiny potentiometers can easily break if done wrong. You can turn down that AM deadkey. :) (My wife's 980SSB I have already unlocked the...

    Magnum 2000 resistor repair.

    If I understood correctly, if you drive the amp with a bigger radio like a 10 meter radio. (One doing 30+ watts.), that would cook those resistors nice n toasty. Good eye on the missing screw. I did not even dare to key up long at all.. I was just after if any kind of power output was happening...

    ISO oscilloscope

    Unsure what oscilloscopes most prefer these days. A couple of my friends have that Rygol branded O-Scope. They went as far as to modifying the firmware to unlock a ton of feature on it. I don't have the exact model on hand, but may be a good candidate for ya.

    Magnum 2000 resistor repair.

    Hard to say just for how long they were burning stuff up... But as of now it is outputting power on each setting, just not as much as the Palomar Skipper 350 is. For now just going to run the Palomar until I can gather enough parts and information to get the Magnum 2000 back in working order.

    Magnum 2000 resistor repair.

    Hello, The two amps came in today about half hour ago, and to be sure one of the amps wasnt too rusted inside, I had a peek inside, and by the looks of it, maybe it was fed with a bit too much power? Some of the resistors near the power level selector have been crisped up pretty well. I was...

    I checked into a net yesterday... It was on 16 LSB. The gentlemen said they do it every Thursday at 7PM Central. Mother Nature ran into the night so was able to check on in.

    Small HF amp

    Maybe next year I can bring back more of my radios from storage including that 23 channel Midland SSB. :) Someone at the time did etch into the chrome above the radio with their callsign, and I always leave stuff like that left on any radios I get. Unique history to each one.

    Small HF amp

    for whatever reason, the modulation from the Midland 40 channel Cybernet radio struggles so hard... I recapped the whole radio and that did nothing for it lol. You have to yell into the mic for it to do anything. 1st radio I am gonna sell off once I get around to it lol.
