Any reccomendations on the best options for external communications speakers? Frequency response, quality, ect. K.M

I have two crystal synthesized 11 meter rigs that I want to change the working band on. I calculated that a new hc/25u crystal of 8.2525mhz would be needed. What I need to know is that how do I calculate the load capacitance required for the custom crystal? When I called icm for pricing, they...

Looking for old Black Cat amplifiers base and mobile, working or non-working. Please pm me if intrested. Cash or trade. Thanks K.M

Anyone have any interesting ideas about setting up mobile rigs on the desk? T23

Is the input circuit around kt907 for impedance matching? Decided to rework my amp project into a mono lowband AM transmitter with modified heising modulation with a toroidal transformer. I would rather use a grounded grid scheme for the gu-50.

Does anyone know what transistor would cross reference to the tr-9 transistor in a navaho trc-458? When I pulled the transistor handling it, I rubbed the numbers off by accident. Thanks

I am looking for a Siltronix 1011, with ac cord. If you have one, please PM me. Thanks

Well Instead of buying an amplifier like I originally was. I would like to build one instead. I have this schematic, but would like some input on what the pi net componant values should be is there a formula for calculating this, mainly the L1 and L2 and C5 values? Also the reference material...

I have a TRC-458 that has no modulation on ssb or am, does have a carrier on am. Might just be the mic I tried on it... who knows! Also has intermittant receive, which looks like the mode switch just needs a good cleaning. Its In ok condition some rust on the back metal chassis. Everythings...

Looking for recommendations on an amplifier that can handle 80 watts of drive to go with a Yaesu FT-101EE. I would like somthing vintage, tube ofcourse. This would only be used on ssb, dont really do AM on this rig. Thanks

I have an SBE-34 coming in soon, got it for a great deal. Does anyone have any modifications for this transceiver? 1. Wanted to know what tubes I may be able to mod the final with? PL-509? 6146? Right now it should have pair of 6GB5 or pl500. 2. AGC modifications, the way the AGC is set up...

I am setting up a new station, so far I have gotten a nice Kenwood TS-520. I am looking for an antenna that will cover mainly 80/40 meters or more without a tuner. I am looking into feeding this with either BuryFlex or LMR-400 or ?. The run will most likely be about 150ft. I have been...

I have purchased a Kenwood TS-520, I just wanted to know what year these rigs were produced. The one I purchased has a serial number beginning in 05XXX I believe. T23

I am gathering parts for an 811A x 811A AM rig. Schematic here ----> http://schmidling.com/811_am.png Just had a few questions. 1. In the schematic. It uses a 4uf 1kv cap in the power supply. I would be using a cap with a higher voltage rating ofcourse. But the other 811A amplifier...

I recently purchased a heathkit dx-40 that works great. But some mods have been done. It transmits fine. Its supposecto have a ptt mod done, it has a four pin mic lug. Pin 1 is the audio and pin 4 is one of the two grounds from what I have found out. When I put it on "phone" and it is just keyed...

I got another DX-40 in, damaged in shipping, it works but the case and the chassis is bent along the middle as if the weight of the transformer and the chokes weight bent it in rough shipping. The tank coil has been damaged but still works aswell. Any Ideas? I was thinking of building...

I have a Galaxy 94hp thats in good cond. 9 out of 10. Works great has no mods and is clean. Has only had frequency conversion. I also have a Stryker 447 in like new cond. That has only had the frequency conversion done. I am looking for an RM HLA-150 with the fans in like new cond.. I am only...
