freq counter noise
I also read and tried the foil around the harness for the counter. I used a aluminum foil tape and it cut out the oscillation noise very well. I still have a little hum, but I will try the other DTB cure and a new power supply cap as well.
Evidently this little gem is the talkback board. the blue wire goes on the center leg of the mic-g (mic gain) control. This is if you use the EC2018EX microphones with the talkback option.
There is also an addendum with the new TB models that state you have to have the power all the way up...
strange board on my 257_HP
I just picked up one of these great little radios and started playing around with it. It was set up with the band type modes, CON3. I wanted to change the CON to selection 2 to have the 10 meter, and continuous coverage. While doing that I noticed a blue wire hanging...
bias problems
Evisently I was a victim of counterfit 2166 and 1969 transistors from fleabay. I had some real deal's and put them in and it all lined up. I do still have a problem with low output on SSB.
I noticed in the TR25 it has VR7 tied to it for the ALC. Also C141 according to the...
I have just aquired a D300, and the output was low on SSB, although it would go from a 2W DK to 6W in AM mode. SSB was peaking at 6W also. I checked the 2166 and the 1969 transistors initially and found both had readings from C to E. Tested 2 new ones and compared and the new ones didn't have...
I have a CBS 1000 and need to know the value of C32. It is where the Channel Guard would be installed. I want to move the channel guard, and replace the cap to keep the radio functional. I've looked at several places and connot find this info. If anybody knows, I would sure appreciate it.
