OK, again Andy, if you can help that would be great if not I understand but here are findings: UNKEYED: AM 7.02VDC SSB 13.10VDC KEYED: AM 6.87VDC SSB 12.92VDC Shorting bar was in place, not removed.. Thanks, Adam

OK, that is clearer, I'll test that way keyed up in AM and SSB, try not to give up on me but if you do I appreciate your help you have given me. Adam

Hi, thanks again for continuing on with me. For the negative lead, I am not sure exactly where you are saying for me to touch the probe to on the transformer, sorry? Also, would I test voltage keying up in AM and SSB, yes? Thanks again, Adam

Hi, without keying mic voltage is 13.23VDC, when I key the mic as told voltage drops to 12.96VDC. I am probably wrong but was told that both IRF520's are finals, this radio has dual finals but I am not sure what I am talking about. Please tell me if these readings tell you anything. Thanks, Adam

Hi, thanks for answering. Yes, I have a Fluke DVM and can measure no problem. The Final I guess is the the IRF520 but I don't know what the driver part number is? With the DVM do I simply take the positive leave of the meter and touch that to the tab and then the negative lead to ground in LSB...

Hi all, so the radio has 2 finals, IR520's and I replaced those 2 but no change? Can anyone help? Thanks, Adam

HI all, so my radio has 2pcs IRF-520, does anyone know if I can use an IRF-520N because I have some of those? Thanks, Adam

Hi all, I have a DX-2547 that I use every so often and have not used it in a couple of weeks and find that output is extremely low. On AM it puts out about 1/2 watt dead key and swings to like 3 watts with modulation. SSB swings to about 3 watts as well. It used to put out like 8-10 watts dead...

Hi, thanks for answering. I am not sure if I am good enough to figure out which components it may be so still hoping someone may be familiar with the amp but I may poke around in it. Thanks, Adam

Hi all, I acquired an older linear, it's labeled GOLD 150 and I have also seen them labeled DYNAMO GOLD 150. It's a nice little solid state amp and works very well except when you turn on the preamp the receive drops out so I am hoping someone is familiar with the amp and perhaps someone has a...

Hi all, I am looking for a couple of CB's: a) Royce 1-642 SSB/AM 40 channel base station b) Sonar G base Must be in very nice shape, complete, and working as it should. Please let me know what you have, all that comes with it, and best price shipped please. I would like to pay with Paypal...

Hi all, I could not desolder enough to lift the pins BUT I desoldered as much as I could and then cut the trace as close to the pins on the IC that I could and all works now. Thanks again, Adam

Hey David, thank you Very much, I had read that somewhere but did not take notice, your article is better and makes sense so will try that later or tomorrow. Good job and thanks for caring! Adam

Hi, I will post the information which can be seen by Googling but I am hoping someone is familiar with this situation. Thanks, Adam: Remove bottom and top covers. Remove the PLL board and tray that is held in by 2 screws on each side of the radio. After you remove the board you will see a 4...

Yes, understood. If anybody can offer help please let me know. Thanks, Adam

Hi, when the mod is done the frequency reads out from 26 to 30mhz. Anyway, hoping someone can help. Thanks, Adam

Hi all, I picked up an HTX-100 that was stock, I carefully did the all band mod and I am pretty handy. I cut the trace properly ( and did not cut anything else) and then soldered the 10K resistor to the appropriate pin with 5VDC. After all this I find it still only covers 28-30mhz, can not get...

OK, so I balanced the SSB so on LSB my carrier is at about 3 watts and on USB about 1/2 watt. Receive is good and I got good signal reports from the couple of contacts I made. I would like to get them both closer to zero but not sure what I can do, anyone more familial with the FT-101E? Thanks...

Hi all I may have made some progress, I adjusted the balance modular and TC1 on PB1184A, still testing but getting close. Adam

Yes, I thought at some point it sounded better but I guess not but now need help with SSB please? Thanks to anyone who can help. Adam
