in a two transistor linear without a third transistor as a driver? All the linears I've come across with a variable control has had a driver in front of the finals. All the linears I've seen that do not have drivers may have a switch that goes from low power to high power.
Will the variable on...
I keep reading about sellers and buyers getting "ripped", and I often wondered how they shipped/received their items. I found that only the USPS will go after anyone committing fraud using the postal service. Those guarantees aren't available for UPS or Fed Ex customers where I guess using...
I have an APC model SUA1500 UPS, (uninterruptable power supply). How difficult would it be to convert it to use as a power supply for a DC linear amplifier? The specs are here: APC Smart-UPS 1500VA USB & Serial 120V
Output at AC outlets is 1440VA, whatever that means lol lol lol. I'm hoping it...
I passed on an opportunity to get this meter which was on ebay because it wasn't working. I wasn't sure if the Nye Company would take it and repair it. How good were these and do the Radiocraft meters work as well? The RFM-003 seller said that he replaced parts (pots) in the sample unit and...
A member opened a thread re: a 2510 and Astatic mic he put on sale on ebay last night at midnight. I wanted to post that it's already been deleted by the ebay police but when I clicked the reply tab the page showed a message saying I didn't have permission to post on the page. This happened one...
to use my vintage Cobra 148GTL-DX on SSB ? It has a roger peep and operators seem to ignore it/me. I change over to my 2950 where I can turn the beep off and get responded to each and every time. Is there an unwritten law ?

The amber backlighting in the display of my 2950 just went out. Is it a matter of replacing a bulb or 2 or is it a matter of replacing the entire display ? My fingers are crossed for a bulb replacement, lol lol lol

I bought a White Lightning @ a hamfest (used) and am trying to get the assembly instructions. I've called S.E. numerous times and get a voice mailbox saying that someone will return the call but since April(?) nothing... I've emailed them too, to no avail. Are they still doing business? Does any...
Concerning a Cobra 148 GTL-DX. It has the side mic (4pin) and the PLL is the MC 145106. The question is this. The chassis with the MB 8710/8734 (148/2000 GTL) is renowned for it exceptional receive properties. Does the MC 145106 PLL chassis also retain the same good>great ears even though it's a...
I have checked the net for info on this D104 of mine to no avail. The base has a toggle switch adjacent to the press bar. Does the switch turn the mike on and off or does it change it from a stock to a powered mike?
Today I was talking dx to an operator in Gainesville Fla. named Dr. Pepper. He was telling me he was using a 16 element ground plane but due to a lot of cross talking and hash and trash I wasn't able to make out the name of the company that he was saying. It sounded like Central Technologies or...
