hello, does anyone have the cw to amp conversion for the ts dx 500. cbtricks wants money now for the new website and the conversion isn't unavailable on the cbtricks mirror sites. Thanks

The mirror I shared with the mods here should have this stuff. If it didn't, one of them can let me know and I'll get it to them so they can add it

For a very short time they actually installed a small board that you plugged a crystal into for ten meters. Plug a key in the back and send cw....... This is why TS started calling them CW transmiters.
You had to switch a couple wires and pull the board out to return it to amp configuration.
It was a few years ago and all of the ones I see now no longer have the board.

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned
