So the ERF2030 is ok to use? and test in transmit?

new Driver and Final are installed. As a disclaimer I installed EFR2030+ to replace the IRF520. A local repair (all of the local guys respect him) suggested it. Every thing I've read says its a drop in replacement. But I just read an article saying the 2030 will raise the power output. This is...

I have a Lincoln 2 Plus that has been sitting for about a year on the shelf. It has the 11 meter conversion done. I never noticed it before I shelved it but I seem to remember the rotary channel selector could either be a straight channel selector or VFO with out having to use VFO on the 3rd...

No shorts at all. I'm about to order the IRF520's and was going to get a new AM modulator but the device is marked 2SB827. The schematic says it a 2SB754. I've checked Digikey and Mouser with no luck. Ebay has both. the 827 is sanyo and the 754 is toshiba. Any suggestions on which one to get...

Thanks for all of the info bro!

Does the CB audio come back to the mic? 980 SSB is the radio I'll be using on the patio. I could care less if it gets some weather as like most 980's the display is half dead and might soon wind up at the range for me to try out my new 1911 A1 on. If the audio return is though the mic and I can...

I have two CB's, 1 in the office and planning on putting 1 on the back patio so I can smoke a cigar while talking to locals. The office one is running on a RM Italy KL503 fed to an A99. The patio will be running a KL203. Problem is they are on opposite ends of the house.I looked into a 1x2...

Sorry to keep this going guys... This is the mosfet version. The final measured 34 ohm across all terminals. The driver is ok but will be replaced none the less . D90 is fine. I am puzzled about about VR10. According to the picture above the left pin and the wiper are ref to ground. Across the...

Normally the coax gets pulled during storms and going out of town. I just slipped up that time.

Pulling the driver and final and testing those and the pot as well as changing C218 to a R/C circuit are no problem. As far as testing drive and compression etc, I'll have to find a shop. Problem is there are so few with a good rep in SE Georgia. If find the pot is good then its most likely just...

OK... I pulled the mirror board and the regulator stays cold. with no TX feed to far leg(driver) draws zero current and reg stays cold. Feed to middle leg (final) draws 2.5 amps! Reg gets hot. Unfortunately I have no dummy load to test under TX but I'm sure 2.5 amps is bad at idle. Should I...

Hot in all conditions. RX, TX, no carrier, no audio ,no mic, no antenna. I just measured it with nothing but power cable with a IR Temp. after 1 min 175F. after 2 min 200F I shut it off when it hit 250F!

Hi all, new to the forum. I have a Galaxy DX-2547 with an overheating problem. On the inside it looks to be a DX-959 chassis with a switching PSU. The radio is factory with no peaking or tuning(Yet) and has run fine for the first 3 months. Then the problem started. The issue is there is a...
