Im wanting to make a T/R switch so i can run my Kenwood R-1000 receiver in line with my station. For hifi purposes. Ive never made one before and this relay happens to be the only one i have laying around. Any help would be great
If I'm not mistaken, the only XLR on the mbox is an input. I'll double check to make sure. I had been using both 1/4" jacks on the back ran parallel into my cap and c37 then ground to ground. Like I said, I'll check it out. I got aggravated last night with it. I recently had an AL-80B blow on...
Direct injection is coming from a Digidesign Mbox 2 and protools. The reason I'm running this radio is because my 142 quit on me and I just want something to use until I get it back up.
Yes they are on separate power supply's.
I have a cobra 29 that I've direct injected. When the radio is barefoot with no extra power, it works fine. As soon as turn on even a 2-transistor linear, I get a major squeal in the audio. I'm thinking it could be my variable dead key I have installed in the radio (tip29/25v 220uf...
I'm just hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I'm looking for plans on building any style beam antennas for 11-meter. I would like to build one, either Yagi or boxed style. i currently have a 5/8 ground plane about 60 ft in the air. I'm just looking to build something to play...
To learn about the various modifications that have been installed in radios over the years. It is quite interesting to me actually, even though I will probably never install this mod.
Well I still have no idea what could be causing the issue. It does it with the tube out completely. I'm thinking rectifier or caps. At least I've got my problem narrowed down. Thanks for your alls help.
Well it has became "fuses" now. still no visible component damage, other than the fuses. i replaced the fuse blown and powered it up again to see if i heard any sounds. nothing.... this is when i noticed that another fuse had blown. when i powered it up again, it didnt blow the fuse on the...
i know it isnt just a faulty fuse. every time i replaced the fuse, it immediately blew it. when i get home from work, i will check those caps. since the tube tested good on the tube tester, im hoping it is those caps. if not, ill be coming to see you with Forrest. Thanks nomad!
Ok..... This has me scratching my head. I was using the amplifier and all of a sudden it was like i unplugged it from the wall. i bled the tube and checked it, it checks good. i dont see any burnt components. i just dont know where to start to figure out what happened. when this happened, i had...
Thanks NOMAD. Like I said, I find the modification fascinating. I know a few people in eastern Kentucky use it to play "Foggy Mountain Break Down" I guess to try and plug people up on the 11-meter band. Especially Frosty. Thank you for that info. It's greatly appreciated. There is a definit...
Anyone know what the mod is called and what it consists of? Of course it'll differ from radio to radio. I just wanted to do a little reading on it to have something to play with. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I don't need to modify SSB. A swing kit or NPC mod would not effect SSB at all since, 1, SSB is no carrier and all modulation driven and 2, I'm only working with the AM side of the radio. I have no swing with the barefooted radio. And I'm getting backward swing with my 4-pill. The rf power only...
