Will test today, my co worker has the dx-10 in his car and I am running the quad 5, from what I remember it does pretty well. I plan to put one in the din size hole in my 95 f150.
This seller on the fleabay has the 6-j code pictured and decent feedback https://www.ebay.com/itm/135162195117?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5336136228&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1
I may have to risk a few $ and try some. The great Hg 2sc2879c has left me wanting more, I...
The regulators run hot on those lincoln 2 + radios, I have never measured the temp but I have found they run a lot cooler with the rwob mod even with a pair of 100 watt finals.
Well unfortunately I have found that I have a problem with mobile tube amps.
My mobile amp collection now includes a PAL mdx 350, Golden Falcon 150 , Maco Mini brute a Firebird 2bill of course I have a kriss 300m that is also a nice box.
Money is tight this time of year but I appreciate your...
A while back tx star got busted by Bbi using fake Toshiba 2879 transistors, Lesters custom also offers the Chinese Toshibas as an upgrade.
What do we know about the source of these parts and what about the performance?
.
All I will say is inflation is about to take a bite out of the $1 = 1watt equation. If tx star was still able to make money on those boxes after materials and labor they wouldn't be basically out of business.

What about the Coax-Seal product that is sold by antenna parts outlet? I purchased a roll to seal up the Avanti Moonraker 4 I am about to put up., Should I use electrical tape underneath on the gammas?
I Have Irfz24n mosfets in the final section of my 2517, no more power at regular voltage than the Irf520s but very durable. I am not scared to key mine it to a tube amp at 3:1 and talk local for an hour. The ranger rt1s are the same thing and they are pretty reasonable from lesco.
35 watts Is...
When I got my sb-220 It had been arcing on the previous owner.
What was required on my unit was a thorough cleaning of the tune capacitor with a jeweler's file where the plates had melted and swollen from the arcing.
I took advantage of my day off and made my first few contacts on sstv at 27.700 using a makeshift interface on my Galaxy dx 2517. France was coming in pretty good this morning.
Your carl built Is biased I would be willing to bet. I have noticed this issue with several 2879c biased amplifers. They like some antenna systems and not others.
Perhaps we should disable the swr protection and do a few tests. I often forget to switch my bench radio back to antenna that is where I run my Washington.
I have a sigma 5/8 venom up for about 3 years in the Oklahoma wind, good antennas. I imported a few and quite a few locals are running them in this area.
