    President HR2510 troubles!

    Been away Sorry i have not been on to offer any help. Sounds like you are on the right track. the Main board 8v Regulator getting hot is a sure sign of a short, usually caused by a bad cap. C60 and C75 as well as C95 and C97 are the normal 'bad cap' culprits. 'Bad Glue' is always a...

    Weak TX on Lincoln HR2510

    Final The Output Final is incorrect, the Original output is a MRF477 and can be replaced with a MRF497 - Those are the pin for pin replacement. The transmitter is designed around these finals. I have found no other fully suitable final. The Bias and tuning is best with these. I have used a...

    Lincoln HR2510 - defective

    Nothing to add I have nothing to add.. You guys have him on the right track. Bad Glue and bad caps. Faulty Regulators. Two 8v and one 5v. [Note the 5v regulator uses an isolated ground, so measure input and output with the negative lead on the metal tab.] Check for damaged circuit traces...

    Converting a President HR-2600

    Swap Actually, The better mod would be to remove the 2510 microprocessor and the 2600 micro, and install a socket in the 2600 and then use the 2510 micro in the 2600. It will work (done a few this way). You still will have to add the 11 mtr mod to the 2600 (the same way you do a 2510). But...

    lincoln audio fault

    Rx Hello, It could be a bad audio IC, but probably bad caps. I would suggest a couple of Capacitor replacements. Typical failure in the audio circuit. Replace C95 and C97. They are 470uf 10v and 47uf 10v. Use 16 or 25 volt replacements. Also you may want to replace Q1, I...

    WOW Hello all, Interesting thread.. If you clip D129 you will disable the AMC Limiter. The AM limit transistor will no longer function as designed. I have that mod posted on my 2510 site, because it was a common modification to disable the AM limiter(it was suggested to me to...
