i remember when this happened. There are newspaper articles out there on it or at least there used to be. The kid was in a wheelchair if i remember correctly, and had been scamming people on ebay for quite some time before this happened. scamming people who have your mailing address is not...

you can probably clean/repair the one you have if you're careful and clean about it. I've probably written up the procedure on here before, but basically you need to use an exacto knife or similar implement and carefully cut around the "head" of those four white circles on the back of the...

congrats Jim! i'll be listening for you and maybe this time we will both be able to hear each other LOL. What freqs are you hanging out on these days? LC

found this ad on ebay and to me it doesn't look "factory". so, was there ever really a "president" D104 or is this a black and chrome that someone modified...

ok as promised, here is my story. My ego still hurts to this day... I had been wanting to try a certain antenna set-up for quite a while, and actually posted/asked questions here about it quite a bit. Specifically what i wanted to do was to use an Astroplane style antenna on a fiberglass...

Funny you should bring that up right now Brandon. here's a great story by the guru himself. He is LUCKY to be alive. i'll tell my antenna+lightning story when i have a bit more time. LC

please do a thread on your install! we would love to know what's involved. LC

kind of depends on what you are going to use that 13v for, but in general, pin 1 of the audio chip or pin 2 of the voltage regulator will be at VCC. LC

welcome to the future! LC

Cable Guy, i built mine pretty much just like yours except i did all three ports. im guessing that you omitted the "low power" RF port. looks nice! i am a big fan of the "run what you brung" style of homebrewing. LC

i built this one and it works GREAT! LC

Crambone, what NZ8N was talking about was the stock AMC configuration in the single conversion 8719 chassis (142GTL/Washington) and the fact that they don't have a variable AMC pot inside (some versions do, some don't). he was comparing it to the 2000GTL which has a variable AMC pot. the part...

i'll just add to Nomad's post to say that the PC board in the counter module is a double sided plated through board. that means that the solder connection on the bottom of the board is also connected to a trace on the top of the board and they are connected with a tiny copper tube that goes...

Nomad, so they actually made a Dwight D with a built in speaker instead of a clock? that's a new one to me. LC

check q30. q31 and q33 as well. LC

Im with ya! i believe that thing would be over 100 bucks to ship one way. i still have a rare kenrich here that ive had for many years now collecting dust. It needs repair/restoration and i just can't ever seem to decide what tubes to use in it. nomad has done very cool things with this...

i keep forgetting to try that trick! somewhere around here i have a schematic for a controlled carrier circuit for this type of radio that im told works very well, but i never got around to building one. LC

you can also play with the AMC attack time by lowering the value of C71 if you just want to have fun experimenting on it. LC
