    X-Force 6 pill getting hot

    Well, there you have it. Just ass-uming you know what is going on, ass-uming I have a business, ass-uming I don't know electronics, and ass-summing I am a butt head. If you care to read the very first post I made, it was polite and to the point. Then instead of answering or helping with my...

    X-Force 6 pill getting hot

    I don't want your books, I don't want your parts, and don't want your help. I can spot a wanna-be from a thousand replies away.

    X-Force 6 pill getting hot

    Crusher, you seem to be the only one to grasp what my question was. I realize the resistors are there to balance the output. I said that in my first post. BUT.........what are the Schottky diodes doing in the input circuit? I have looked at hundreds of amplifiers and hundreds of amp schematics...

    X-Force 6 pill getting hot

    Mr. Dallas, You know, I have never been on a single forum where there wasn't at least one guy blowing a lot of hot air about nothing because he knows nothing. Please refrain from helping me in any manner.

    X-Force 6 pill getting hot

    I had a guy bring in an X Force 6 pill that had quit and was blowing fuses. All but one of the four rectifiers had blown so I replaced then all. Amp came on fine, no fuse blowing but things are heating up in the signal input section, mainly the 10 ohm 20 watt resistors of which there are three...

    Sears Roadtalker 40 SSB Mobile

    Information still needed It may be late for the original asker, but I was looking for it and found it here. So the post is still a good one. I didn't see a reply to the guy with the straight 40 channel. That is what I have. My model is 934.38110700 and was wondering if that information was...

    Need help with a Connex 3300HP (Ranger RCI chip)

    audio chip If you want information on the audio chip then you need to just type in the chip number in a search engine or maybe see if it crosses in the NTE database. There are thousands of data sheet on the web. I can't recall the audio chip for that particular radio but from the service manual...

    Messenger 800 help

    Toll Free, if I understand you right, you say the M800 should have the 2290 pills installed: is that right? This one has all 2879s. That is kind of why I wanted to see a picture of the inside to see if someone might have changed things around. This amp was working fine at one time then just quit...

    In the market for new HF rig, but which one?

    More good suggestions Looks like I have a lot more good suggestion but I could not help but laugh when someone mentioned AM! There can be a vast difference in audio on SSB as well. I agree and have preached for years that your radio is no better than your antenna. I just don't have room for an...

    HELP WITH A Galaxy 225

    HI-TEK, when you do take the capacitor out of line on AM, if you discover that your relays chatter then I would suggest that you try what Blaine did or maybe put a few more key watts into the linear if your radio has variable power out. It is always best to run low key watts from your radio to...

    HELP WITH A Galaxy 225

    You are on the right track Yes, what you said about coming off one pin of the capacitor with a wire to the switch and then going back to the board where the cap was lifted with a wire from the other switch post is exactly right. You can lift either pin of the capacitor, however, personally I...

    In the market for new HF rig, but which one?

    Thanks for the suggestions so far. I appreciate all the input. I have been reading through QST and even their back issues to get the reviews on transceivers. Someone asked if I needed to spend part of the money on antenna equipment and to answer that: No, not right at the present. What I have...

    In the market for new HF rig, but which one?

    This is a loaded question I know but seriously I have looked and read and looked some more to the point I don't know what to do. My situation is this: I am considering sellling an expensive item I have that I don't use or need any longer. I would like to take some of the money and just spend it...

    HELP WITH A Galaxy 225

    Amp holding key too long They only thing that will hold in the relay after you un-key the mic is an eletrolytic capacitor. They are the small can type objects. They function just like a battery that charges up when you key the mic, then when you un-key the mic, the charge they received reverses...
