    Has Norms rotor service finally bit the dust?

    I just received an order from Norm's about 2 weeks ago. I have to say the service was excellent. The communication was excellent and the packaging of my order was phenomenal. Edited: As I looked back at my invoice(attached), I received the order about 4 weeks ago. 73 David

    Attached are the datasheets for the Toshiba 2SC2879 and the HG2SC2879. As you can see by comparing the 2 datasheets, HG's sheet is almost a carbon copy of the Toshiba as far as Maximum ratings and Electrical characteristics. There is additional data on the Toshiba datasheet("Input power") that...

    Surgeon needed for RM Italy KL503HD

    A U.S. stocking source for IRF-520's. I have dealt with Mouser many, many times. Good service always. At the price of these, replacing all of the mosfets in the RM is a no brainer. You may want to seek out biasing options for this amplifier. (it does clean up the SSB output) I've seen several...

    What model palomar 300a is the best??

    It is my understanding that not all 300A's came with a high voltage relay to cut off the tubes when the amplifier is un-keyed. I would look for a 300A that did have the high voltage relay and CORRECT matching power supply. Though if the deal is right (good tubes!) on a 300A without the high...

    Anytone quad 6

    My AT-6666 has been running 2 years with no heat problems at all and the covers have never been removed. (So I have no idea what MOSFETS it is equipped with) But it never peaks more than 20 watts. 73 David

    New Cobra 29 Am/Fm

    +1 on the delta tune. Useless since the 23 channel crystal days. I have picked up a few cheap (and I mean $20.00 or less) 40 channel rigs from e-bay and change the useless delta tune controls to RF Gain controls. Most are PLL02A models and usually require a mic cord repair or some other silly...

    RCI 99N2 - 300 Watts?

    The question is not what it does ON 6 meters but what does the spurious radiation do TO 6 meters. Maybe just a rhetorical question because most operators don't care. 73 David

    RCI 99N2 - 300 Watts?

    I noticed the audio generator setting at 100mV PP at the 2:45 mark in the video. I normally use 30mV. Maybe if I used 100mV my 148GTL would output 300 watts?:unsure::ROFLMAO: 73 David
