The second thing is to purchase a DC blocker to save the input of your new analyzer. Yes, you can hook it up with your sampler. I have mine hooked that way, tied in with my scope.

I purchased one a couple of years ago. The very first thing I did was this modification so I could keep the very expensive trial bundled software so it would not lapse. Cheers!

Usually it's the mode switch that starts to break down that causes your problem. Do NOT use any kind of cleaner on it. I have also seen the 7558 tube not working correctly with the modulator circuit that pegs the needle hard. If you say your mode switch is ok, then try another final tube and see...

I purchased it in Atlanta, Ga. It is real Times Microwave LMR-400 not a knock-off.

They lied. I was talking to California on Friday,last and heard a poof. Smoked my 8 pill. When I checked my swr with my analyzer it read infinity. I undid my coax and that bakelite on the PL-259 connector was black and melted. Toasted the whole length of coax as well. My eight pill would do...

I have replaced my Times Microwave LMR-400 3 times in 2 years. It cost way more than the Belden RG-213/U but the Belden is good for 10 plus years of service. I will NEVER buy LMR-400 again EVER.

Yep. Triple 3 is his skip handle. All the locals call him BIGFOOT. He runs out of Jacksonville,Al He is just on the other side of coldwater mountain from me. We talk daily, so it may have been me in there. I have been working on some Galaxy radios the last few days and really like the old...

lol...got to speak with 808 again today. That's 2 days in a row!! worked 748 hit and run, car wash, 518 and ice water out of Chicago. Stray dog out of Delaware 420 and 211 in NY and a bunch down the eastern seaboard. Conditions were in and out quick, so you had to keep up!

Hey, 808. This is what I was using for my antenna while we talked. I even have a tower between my 4th and 5th elements lol...This thing is fixed pointing magnetic north and has a 1.03:1 match sitting as it is. I was using my Texas Ranger Elite mobile radio swinging 20 watts with my D-104. No...

I went up to ch21 this morning but had no conditions at all. I visited back a few times thru the day but mother nature was not favorable. I'll catch you in there soon, brother.... Choo Choo :)

lol...I heard y'all I did.

What time you get on ch 21 in the mornings, Leo?

Talked with triple one on Grand Island, 81 and hit and run in Chicago. Black Sheep in the Bahamas and Dr J in Texas on ch 20 this afternoon. Mother nature was not being nice so you had to get them while they were in there cause the bottom would fall out real quick. Trainman steppin' :)

Unit 101 and myself spoke to 357 this morning, from the big bam :)

Hung out on 27.205 while working on radios. Skip was coming in and out all day long. Started with Illinois, NY, in the morning (7am) and Maryland down thru the Carolinas around noon ending up with the Sand Pile around 4pm.

They aren't waving their hand....they're drying their nails...lol

Thanks for your reply, Handy Andy. Both input and output foils including ground foils are good going to and from the 2290 board. I know exactly what your referring to as I have seen those foils lift from the board from previous radios I have worked on. Looked like the tech had over heated them...

Weird problem with this one. I used my audio probe and traced back to where I lost my modulation. I have modulation coming up to and out of TR44 (2sc2166) collector going into the junction of C209 (820pf) and C338 (390pf) but that is where it stops. It is not getting to the input (base) of the...

Hey, Shadetree....was probably us you heard on 20 in Alabama. I'm back on the vertical Shockwave about 45 ft up. Had about 35 people from Virginia on up the eastern coast to NY coming back to me and a few friends just ratchet jawing locally. They couldn't believe I was running bare foot. I said...
